We're raised to be so smugly full of shit here, talking about world politics in myopic terms of individual psychology, reducing the course of human events to "is this a good guy or a bad guy?". Doesn't need to be more conplicated than that, because by that point in the conversation the waiter has usually arrived and we got to sound very smart and sophisticated while we were waiting for the treats.

Oh fuck it is that guy!
It's so cute when libs project their purile lack of knowledge onto the people consistently tearing their imperial worldview apart
"Noo you can't just be mean to bigots, you're pushing people away from communism, noo why are you standing up for maligned and beseiged socialist countries, Marx would be ashamed of youu "
That's actually how I discovered the old sub, some lib told me to go back to it
If you give me one person who calls themselves a socialist but believes the US state department' line on all America's rivals, and a second person who has mever even heard the word "socialism" but simply ontologicaɔly hates and opposes America through some arcane grudge, the second person will always be a better socialist, even accidentally.

Both Wikipedia and Prolewiki are biased,
Yes
but Wikipedia is biased to the wrong direction
Uh huh
I like Prolewiki's bias more than I like Wikipedia's bias. Therefore, Wikipedia is not reliable on the topic of Authoritarianism."
Aand here you lose me. The fact that you have to assign them a frivolous reason to choose one definition over the other (I just like it lol) as opposed to this choice being the outcome of any assessment of their relative usefulnes as analytical tools kind of gives away your game here.
You say that like lib dunking is an exclusively right wing activity, which is an adorably sheltered thing to think
"Hate the govt not the people btw"
