    I don’t know what planet you live on that you think I advocate for an authoritarian government – but I prefer worker rights within a decentral framework, à la council or anarchist communism.

    As for the American situation itself, assuming no such model, I think there’s more necessary, such as better urban planning with free, frequent, punctual and high-quality public transit and bicycle lanes. Not to mention the Supreme Court should be appointed solely through apolitical processes, not by executives. Its appointment requirements should also be determined apolitically.

    No branch should have the power to increase its own power. The state is a centralised entity with a monopoly on violence; therefore the state must be abolished, and a “power vacuum” avoided through decentralised self-governance.
