No. I think Americans underestimate how much wealth is out there and tax can increase a bit without much affect for the very rich or acting as a disincentive to invest in the economy - but the voters can decide. Saying proposed tax increases is a slippery slope to further increases is just words - unless you can show a pattern of such broken promises on tax increases by the left - the only one I remember on tax was the famous broken promise by Bush senior. Can you point to this Kamala policy about men in girls showers? The current policies are not soft on crime or promote mass immigration but up to you if you believe that.

But who is advocating socialism beyond the economic idea of maybe tax the very rich a bit more - something that won't affect most voters including I assume yourself - and providing a few more services to the rest. Maybe the odd social policy that are mostly non controversial. So how does that require authoritarianism. If your talking about a more formal definition of socialism than it's irrelevant as neither party is advocating for it.

Thailand raises retirement age to 65 for all sectors
Fat is a type of crazy replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
It would be tough if there is no transition i.e. those 59 still get it at 60 - maybe those at 55 get it at 61 etc Couldn't see that noted. -
Why Kamala Harris was always destined to lose
Fat is a type of crazy replied to NickyLouie's topic in Political Soapbox
Democrats are pretty normal compared to parties around the world. They compete in elections - accept the outcome - 99 per cent of policies are pretty stock standard. Yes the far left of the party get a bit too progressive for some but normally whats behind it is trying to be inclusive and accept people as they want to be which in of itself is not so bad surely. But most Democrats are not far left. The cult is clearly those who are willing to ignore what they see - someone who can't accept election outcomes - almost universally panned by high achievers and those with excellent reputations who worked with him - someone who's policies such as new tariffs are almost universally panned - someone who says the enemy within are a bigger threat than the worlds dictators. -
There's a lot more to it than simply saying that report came out and is correct. It seems odd that the actions happened before the curfew during a protest that was peaceful at the time and right at the time of Trump and friends walk. The two views is that it was cleared to complete fencing in daylight - even though it was completed mainly at night - the second that it was done to protect Trump during his walk - the latter stated by the Justice Departments own lawyers. This Washington Post report is interesting https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/06/24/trump-ig-report-lafayette-square/ - you'll need to provide your email to see it - as is the Wikipedia page I have posted that has lots of detail beyond your report. The broader issue is Trump's apparent opinions on what actions to take during such protests including the use of active troops by invocation of the Insurrection Act - the section on Law and Order on the Wikipedia page is interesting. Though the report you provide is interesting it appears it is not appropriate to go on a victory lap of debunking such claims as some suggest based on that report alone .
