i mean, authority in its classical sense is essentially position.
parents are authorities over their children based on a real relation.
that’s not just a matter of belief.
authority is more about duties and responsibilities to others than anything.
authority is distinct from power.
but i get the jist of the meme.
a corrupt government has no authority over anyone, then abdicated responsibilities and abandoned their position
