>the large number of authoritarians here.

Everybody who has a different viewpoint than me is a <insert label>!

Large number isn't everybody. There are many libertarians here, and I have a different viewpoint from them too. I've just been surprised how many people turned out to be authoritarians once one got into power.

How would you label people who are for reducing civil liberties then?

[forgetsusername]

I think you should provide a bit of evidence for the "large numbers" of people in favour of "reducing civil liberties" on these boards.

Well for one, take a look at all the comments complaining that this is too political, or complaining about the dirty liberals on this site.

Nearly all (not all, but nearly all) the people who are against the ACLU are the people that you're looking for.

I mean, if they are supporting Trump, they are literally authoritarians.
