Evidence

I think I have not found any authoritarians on the left because, if there ever were any, most of them have dried up and blown away and “nobody makes them any more.” You don’t have to be much of a weatherman to know which way the wind has been blowing for the past twenty-five years. — Bob Altemeyer, The Authoritarian Specter, 2989
