Authoritarians literally believe that the only way to run things is to put a bully in charge of them. Not only don’t they believe in democracy or cooperation, they don’t believe in free speech or markets either.
(Markets are acceptable to an authoritarian only insofar as the bully in charge and his buddies are permitted to lie to, cheat, and steal from other market participants. It is strictly forbidden for other market participants to voluntarily organize to exclude the bully. Any form of organization that does not have a bully in charge of it is illicit to the authoritarian mindset.)
Seriously, they just want a kind father figure who will take care of them. Trump pretending to be that is pretty cruel. There’s a whole lot more going on, but that’s the core of it.
Yeah the real “alpha” types are more afraid of steamrolling people than coming off as weak. They know there’s nothing wrong with submissive and vulnerable folks.
A lot of free speech “alphas” sure seem to want to be ruled.
The true secret to (Alpha Males) is each and every one wants to be a subbie Omega to an even alphaer male.

Oh, the authoritarian right has some serious daddy issues alright…

They embrace the darkness believing that they will escape their fate, little knowing that they will merely be disposed of LAST
Given the kind of infighting for power often seen in authoritarian countries, even that isn’t necessarily true
It’s hilarious. They act all macho but what they really want is to be dominated by a man.
ruledtoppedTred on me daddy
Reign over me Daddy
