@corbden@defcon.social And that's my point. They're just authoritarian followers of an authoritarian leader. The book, *The Authoritarians* is a good read on the subject. Our country often swings to and from authoritarian tenancies. A lot of the anti-woke stuff is a call for authoritarian indoctrination. Education and growing up in a diverse community is the best counter for authoritarianism; that's why they want segregated, religious education systems.
