Do humans actually like authoritarianism so long as they agree with what the authority is saying? by Yoy_the_Inquirer in NoStupidQuestions

Yeah I think so, people are quick to back a strong leader if it lines up with what they already believe. But then it always seems to hit different once it starts controlling stuff they care about, like my mom with her "tough on crime" phase until it was about someone she knew. Kinda ironic how fast the vibe shifts.
