Kant's "categorical imperative," which dictates that one should act only according to principles that could be universalized, mirrors the will to power that drives authoritarian regimes. Both systems strive for absolute freedom from external constraints, reflecting the Enlightenment's core principle of self-legislation. However, in practice, this pursuit of autonomy leads to a dangerous form of subjectivity where the powerful impose their own self-created laws on others, the "categorical imperative" itself inherently authoritarian, as it is based on the idea that the individual is a moral arbiter. Kant's attempt to separate moral duty from material interests creates a moral philosophy that is ultimately unsustainable and easily co-opted by those in power.
