Right Authoritarianism and High Time Preferance - - Gunslinger Zach - tags: Notes · Politics
I’m starting to notice a tendency towards high time preference thinking in right-wing authoritarians. When they argue for authoritarianism, they will use an example of a bad (real or hypothetical) and then bring up an authoritarian state as the solution.

I don’t remember much from this dream, but I do remember seeing a picture of ai luke smith advertising a frying pan and being creeped out because I knew that he didn’t consent to this.

I had the (mis?)fourtine of seeing this following story play out live on twitter. (1)
To any sane person, this art is just an example of a “cutepost”, that is something cute to be looked at and then you do something else with your time. To the politically obsesed leftist however, this MUST be political.
This whole “all (fill in the blank with whatever you want) is political” is a testimate to how the leftist sees things. To the adverage person, there is inherently political things, however, there is very clearly non-political things. If you ask someone what the meaning is of this image, then most people would tell you their religious opinion on it. They would never bring up the goverment simply because there is no referance to the goverment here.
