How can America fight authoritarianism while making it domestic policy?
Buried at the end of page nineteen of the Biden administration's twenty-three-page Interim National Security Strategic Guidance issued to the public last month is this gem: "Authoritarianism is on the global march, and we must join with likeminded allies and partners to revitalize democracy the world over."
Put aside, for a moment, that the custodians of our constitutional republic still mistake "democracy" as the antithesis to "authoritarianism," rather than "liberty" or "individual rights," which are the true bulwarks for a free people to guard against the tyrant's will.
Authoritarianism is on the march?
Um...it sure looks as though it's already firebombed the turrets, splintered the drawbridge, and stormed the castle. At the very least, it traipsed into American homes this last year like a wet skunk sneaking through the kitchen's doggy door entrance.
"Wear a mask, or you will be punished!"
"Stay at home, or you will be punished!"
"Stop praying at church, or you will be punished!"
"Forget making a living, or you will be punished!"
"Inject this into your body, or no vaccine passport!"
"Oh, and if you would be so kind, please let a local Democrat operative fill out your unidentifiable and untraceable mail-in ballot, so that every single vote counts!"
I hate to break it to the same vast national security apparatus that largely failed to predict the fall of the Berlin Wall or the dissolution of the Soviet Union (thanks, Gipper!), but authoritarianism slipped inside the outer perimeter wall some time ago while the Pentagon was getting drunk on one too many virtue-signaling cocktails of climate change alarmism, sex change operations for the boys, and rooting out soldiers who might admit to having ever enjoyed The Dukes of Hazzard.

What’s your social credit score?
Joe Biden, Famous Authoritarian...
More like “Famous Bullshit Artist”.
I’m guessing Chairman Xi Dung doesn’t consider single party rule to be authoritarianism.
He is what he pretends to oppose, a fascist.

If Joe Biden wants to admit to making mistakes & completely change his way of doing things, THEN the average American might think he is really trying to oppose authoritarianism. Until then, he has been the very personification of it & no amount of beating around the bush & making excuses is going to convince any real American. Seems like he mentioned that he wanted to be “everyone’s president”. Where’s the proof?
Precisely.
