An excellent summary of where most Americans stand now in politics. This is just a taste, go to the link for the full meat and potatoes.
āThere is an anger in the land I donāt think youāre even vaguely aware of. Iām not ā not even close ā the most hot tempered on our side. And I was a very reluctant Trump voter. But watching your sham- wow-impeachment (Itās Russia, itās Ukraine, itās taxes, itās mean tweets against the squad, itās the fact that orange man bad), your attempt to reverse elections you donāt like, and silence people who donāt agree with you, has me spitting mad, furious, not even sure what to do with all this anger. And Iām not alone. You have no idea of the anger stalking this land.ā
....
āWe are told things like āfree speech doesnāt cover hate speechā which is what is technically known as bullshit, since no one ever needed a right to free speech to say that butterflies are pretty and ice cream tastes delicious. Or for that matter to echo the things the controllers of media and social media want you to say.
And of course, the left, knowing the game is up and we can see them, has dropped all the masks and has gone to naked aggression and force. Daft and naked aggression and force. I guess all out of touch would be elites, in their terminal state seem to get a little ⦠odd.
The problem is that for decades, in many ways they had this thing called āAbsolute power.ā For decades our Marxists had full control over the media, full control over publishing, full control over entertainment, full control over the bureaucracy behind the government, full control of a lot of our judicial system, full controlā It turns out, after all that weāve been saying it all wrong. Itās not Absolute power corrupts absolutely. It is, in fact Absolute control of the means of communication dumbs you down infinitely.ā
