The Democrats are not authoritarian in that they promote democracy, protect human rights, and promote political plurality.
that's a lie: "vote blue no matter who" and accusations against the green party highlight this. tehy also arrested jill stein at the debate in 2012.
Vote blue no matter who is a political slogan, not an order with any weight. It's not like people are prevented from voting Republican in any way.
Stein was arrested because she didn't meet the polling threshold to be eligible to be considered as a candidate and then tried to force her way on stage. It's no different than you or I going to hear a band play and trying to force our way on stage because we thought we could play guitar better.

Facts are facts. She was not a political opponent because she did not get enough support to even participate in the debate. She was arrested for breaking the law, not for being a political opponent
she was a political opponent. she opposed them politically and challenged them for election.

this is just rhetorical posturing. she had opposing political positions and was denied a platform with others vying for the same seat.
Denied because she had insufficient support to qualify. That's a requirement in every democracy on the planet to be considered a serious candidate.
Denied because she had insufficient support to qualify.
those requirements are arbitrary.
the United States isn't a democracy
It's a representative democracy. If we can't agree on at least this, then your opinions are not grounded in reality and there is no point talking further.
it's a fascist oligarchy with the trappings of a representative democracy.
So there is no point in talking further. Your views are not based in fact or reality.
we are working with the same facts. it's been a matter of interpretation this whole time.
