No. Authoritarism implies depoliticization of society and promises like "we won't touch you, you won't touch us", while totalitarism implies very politicized society. Both are dictatorships, but they work differently.

Not saying that one dictator is better than the other.

This is not the first time a Russian fails to comprehend Russian language.

The claim you’re making is a description of “informational autocracy”, which Shulman claims modern Russia were.

No idea what she claims now, when Russia has clearly moved past using just information to control its population since February 2022.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
