Wikipedia is heavily moderated, notice all those citations? I used to use it in school to find authoritative sources because their citations were so good.

Both right and Left wing governments can descend into authoritarianism.

Also you are describing traditional American Conservatism which is heavily based on classical liberalism not what academics would consider a "right wing" government. In fact what you just described would put you on the far left in some places.
Right wing people who descend into control and power are no longer right wing. They may say they are but they are not. Most R’s in our government are not right wing.

Not anymore. It never has been an acceptable source, unless you take the sources as you said, but the founder of it recently said it is no longer neutral and favors leftists.

Wikipedia co-founder Larry Sanger says online encyclopedia scrapped neutrality, favors lefty politics

As protesters gathered outside the White House Friday night in Washington, DC, President Donald Trump was briefly taken to the underground bunker for a period of time, according to a White House official and a law enforcement source.

The President was there for a little under an hour before being brought upstairs. It's unclear if first lady Melania Trump and Barron Trump were also taken down with him.

I was always taught that the farthest left a society could go was fascism and the farthest right one could go is anarchy.

Many articles in Wikipedia have bias when dealing with politics and shouldn't be referenced as credible.

As for the article referenced that cited "Brooks 1994, p. xi; Kahn 2000; Moynihan 2007", a Google Scholar search returns no results for these authors even remotely related to the subject of political alignment.

And that, is why Wikipedia is considered a non-credible source for many of it's articles.
This is correct extreme or far right would mean no laws or anarchy. Lord of the flies scenario.

I am in Chicago and things are getting interesting on live TV. There is a group of protestors marching toward Trump tower. The police intercepted and it was mostly just yelling and screaming.

But then someone got the cops attention and bodies started flying. Atleast two cops REALLY wanted an antifa looking punk that was clearly instigating. A few of his buddies rescued him out of the cops hands.

So what do you consider right wing? Is an absolutist monarchist right wing?

Friend said he saw a video of somone out there in the riots with a young child. Police threw tear gas and the kid is crying his eyes out because theyre burning. Unbelievable someone would take children into that mess.
