    right, so it was anti-authoritarian when the natives were slaughtered by the US army. it was anti-authoritarian when they were herded into “reservations”. it was anti-authoritarian to keep millions of people in forced labour camps. and so on. these were all fundamentally anti-authoritarian, yes?

    was it also anit-authoritarian to bomb millions of civilians to death the world over?

      Let’s not forget Japanese internment camps, slavery + Jim Crow, Latino internment camps…

      Obviously a freedom-loving, anti-authoritarian country since day one.

        yes, i stopped at some point but as well as what you pointed out, who could forget the anti-authoritarian liberation of the philippines from spanish rule which somehow oops ended in american rule.

        it’s also anti-authoritarian when the police kill more people in a year than some countries have

        i support the troops in an anti-authoritarian way, y’see.

        and let’s not forget the whiskey rebellion, which ended with no exercise of authority at all
