And what, exactly, was illogical about the Stalinist or Maoists murdering or imprisoning millions of dissident for social cohesion and political power?

It depends on what they actually value.

Political power and control. Their political power and control. So their acts were rational - correct?

If that is all they value - yes. Within their framework, they could well be rational.

Well they valued that over the lives of dissidents.

There acts were rational according to their ideology just as Moses' acts were rational according to his ideology, when he slaughtered every man among the Midianites. Totalitarianism tends to be the regrettable result of rigidly conformist societies, whether theistic or political.

More fascist indoctrination:

California school district says parents can’t pull kids from new LGBT sex ed

In a memo dated March 29 to the Orange County Board of Education, Orange County Department of Education general counsel Ronald Wenkart says that the law’s opt-out provision “does not apply to instruction, materials, or programming that discusses gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, discrimination, harassment, bullying, intimidation, relationships, or family and does not discuss human reproductive organs.”

Parents who disagree with the state’s LGBT positions “may not excuse their children from this instruction,” Wenkart continues. He then suggests that parents still having the right to “advise their children that they disagree with” such lessons compensates for this restriction.

He also cites judicial precedent to claim that “parents do not have a constitutional right to excuse their children from portions of the school curriculum that they find objectionable.”

Like there is something morally wrong with totalitarianism in your ethically relative world - just animals being animals...

Totalitarian governments tend to have very little crime or chaos. Everyone is very well behaved and obedient to the state. So it must be good!

Is that what conservatives like about the (above) the law and order president, Trump?

Historically accurate, as far as I know - and not unusual for dictators and strongmen. They tend to value power and/or prestige/position (and often wealth) over almost everything else.

Is that what conservatives like about the (above) the law and order president, Trump?

Yes JimL, because Trump is a dictator. That is why everyone in America is scared of him and obeys everything he says. He has an iron fist around the throat of Congress and the Media and they do everything he says.

Well, that certainly describes the republican congress.

What rock have you been hiding under? Trump couldn't even get them to pass the healthcare bill.

[JimL]

What rock have you been hiding under? Trump couldn't even get them to pass the healthcare bill.

I think you mean that he couldn't get them to repeal healthcare, not pass healthcare. But they certainly tried, its just that they still have a couple of principled republicans amongst their ranks and thanks to just a couple of them, including the deciding vote of John McCain, they were not quite able to screw the american people over like they would have liked.
