    Anne, authoritarianism in the US is coming from the left.

    Which of the things I listed is in error?
    Increased corporate taxes= real
    Tax credits for Chip makers because making our own chips is a matter of nationally security= real
    NOT stressing our own energy production as a matter of national security= real
    Government spending to decrease inflation being contrary to any credible economics?= real

    Polarization may be normal but this degree of polarization is neither normal nor productive. It simply makes us easier to control. As a "source" Exhibit A-Z is 2020-2022 controllism surrounding COVID and CC, only made possible by a divided public.

    The releasing of criminals is a key piece in the agenda.

    It drives increased crime, which is a problem.

    Have you not noticed that most of the problems the gubmint demands authority to 'FIX' are the problems they created ... and that the fix(s) tends to create(s) the next problem, which the state tells us that only they can 'FIX.'
