Except that what your comment misses is that the right thinks that the left wants to use the government to control their lives and the left in places like the US and Canada is not authoritarian just because they want the most basic government regulations on the practices that we can all see are screwing us over. The problem with your comment is that it acts as if both are operating within the same reality but we can see very fucking clearly that that simply isn’t true.

Conservative ideology is historically always authoritarian, it has to be. It is an ideology which exists to protect the system of a few people on top who own everything else, with a good bit of hating anyone who isn’t a straight, cis man because that helps get the voting base riled up.
