There is a difference between the social spectrum and the authority spectrum. One can be authoritarian and conservative (like Trump seems to be acting, and which in extreme cases leads to Hitler), or one could be authoritarian and liberal (like New Democrats with their big government big regulation plans, and which in extreme cases - and this has me worried because I see anti-Trump conservatives but very few anti-progressive liberals (but an example of which would be Bill Maher) - leads to Stalin or Castro).

Make no mistake, as George Orwell so eloquently put it: the common Socialist does not truly love the poor, they simple hate the rich.

A person who truly cares about the poor would actually try to help them, not by promising them free healthcare funded by 90% taxes on the rich (just think about the endless implications about Bernie Sander's policies. Really, the complete disregard for economics is just as much fascinating as it is absurd), but would instead ensure the free market can function as it should - freely. Healthcare is overly regulated while simultaneously designed in a way that allows Big-Pharma (which I'm against) to monopolize healthcare. I mean patents on pain killers? That's insane. Allow generic companies to compete and you'll solve the affordability of healthcare.
