    I also love seeing identity/symbols co-opted by authoritarians.

      The famous authoritarian Israel… Yeah…

      They currently have a right government but its a liberal right not a authoritarian right as in USA.

        Yes, the state where interfaith marriages aren’t allowed and that regularly domes journalists for the crime of being journalists.

        Here at NCD we only approve of states that are equal-opportunity killers.

        They currently have a right government but its a liberal right not a authoritarian right as in USA.

        Fucking what.

          Indeed. The Israeli right is theocratic, semi-openly genocidal and headed by a guy with corruption cases waiting for him as soon as he’s not Prime Minister anymore (which he’s solving with forever war). Liberal right my ass.

        I’d argue apartheid , warrantless and unlimited imprisonment of an ethnic group, state censorship of the press, and a two-tier society enshrined in their constitution is pretty hard right, and authoritarian.

        Only Ariel Sharon himself can even rival the current Israeli coalition government for far right bona fides, there are sitting cabinet ministers openly discussing ethnic cleansing to international press.
