I guess I should have expected deflection and “appeal to hypocrisy” when naming authoritarians.

Can you be any more a Redditor?

This conversation has already been had out a thousand times here. You brought nothing new to the conversation—in fact you brought nothing—so I can’t be bothered.

But, you indirectly proved my point - authoritarians are belligerent.

That wasn’t a point you made, and that’s not what belligerent means in the context I used it.
