Moral Authority

Hym "MORAL AUTHORITY!? AHAHAHA! Well, if the highest moral authority on the planet is a mental retard we are in big trouble folks! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! WHAT IS EVEN THE BASIS OF HIS MORAL AUTHORITY? 'Um... Uh.. You see, my cripple HIPAA paperwork says I'm not a retard so um... Actually, it says I'm an extra special guy? So, actually, not a retard. I may have a mental retardation... And I may have bought my way into all of my positions... But-' EEEEEHHHHH! WRONG! YOU ARE A RETARD ELON! YOU RUN A SPACESHIP COMPANY AND THINK THE SUN IS MADE OF FIRE! RETARD! THAT'S WHAT A RETARD IS! DEFINITIONALLY RETARD. NO MORAL AUTHORITY FOR RETARDS!"

Punchy Authority

When someone directs you, even if they’re upbeat, they might start rhyming. They get into it sometimes.

These people are usually pleasant, understanding, and nonvolatile. The authoritative aspect is subtle, like describing how they’d do something or not realizing they’re imposing themselves. However, some do exist. You can tell the difference. One is noticeably less pleasant or harder to spend time with.
Always never allow yourself not to be ready when shit goes down man, because you gotta look out!

Person: that’s punchy authority?

Podperson: idk I mean he did tell you what to do and it ended up being funny.. kind of

Person: what? He didn’t say anything! What does that even mean?

Podperson: The instructions were to look out, do you even pay attention when others speak?

Person: Thats whatever the hell you were talking about for ya, I’ll just wing it..

"ghost writer" AUTHORity

Rampant in "chain of command" situations --- especially the military and "mega-biz" establishments --- whereby everybody wants to push underlings around but then hastily "passes the buck" and claims ignorance/innocence when things go sour. Refers to the deplorable practice of an arrogant/dictatorial/irresponsible/ignorant a**h**e with way too much power ("authority") giving unwise/ineffective/counter-productive orders to one or more hapless underlings, brusquely refusing to listen to their urgently-beseeching appeals about the fallacy/unfairness/danger of proceeding as he told them, but then suddenly shedding all knowledge/responsibility (i.e., not admitting that he was indeed the "author" of those crazy stipulations) regarding said preposterous directives whenever s**t hits the fan afterwards as a result of his subordinates' having reluctantly-but-obediently carried out his unwisely-mandated actions.
I long ago decided to not just blindly/arbitrarily follow orders/rules/laws, no matter what position or experience or education/training that their "authors" happened to supposedly possess... I **always** use my own judgement/conscience in all my actions. Too many times in the past, I've gotten in knee-deep doo-doo MYSELF for someone else's screw-ups in reasoning/planning, only to have said "idiot in power" pull da ol' "ghost writer" AUTHORity trick on me, never admitting or even falsely denying ever having told me to proceed that way, just so that HE would not have to suffer any of the fallout from his own preposterous directives.

Scratch-off authority

Authority figures, with veneer of legitimacy so thin, that it can be readily removed, to reveal the criminal constitution that is beneath.
The mother was a hypocrit, and a scratch-off authority, with a history of criminal faults, that she hid behind the facade of respectable, government, employee.
