You know, for how thuggish, loutish, and sadistically predatory the left have been for the last four years when they don't have power (much less corporate lapdogs), it's actually quite worrying to think of what they will do if they get power, and there are no brakes on the excesses. It's set up for an almost certainty of apartheid, gulags, and re-education camps if they can exercise that kind of power.
This is what they are confident to proclaim and threaten when they don't have power. What more will they do if they do?
I remember saying to a family member when I was out in the bush and the radio was playing on 9/11, and it was only a few minutes after I realized the first report of a plane hitting didn't mean some numbskull in a Cessna, I told them: "Now we see the veneer of civilization collapse in the States."
It sort of did, with waterboarding and extraordinary rendition and Abu Ghraib and Gitmo, but now it's expanded, and instead of being an aberrant smear of paint in the picture, it has become the canvas of politics in the West.
I think most people intuitively see this, and unless the media's attempt to make this the canvas succeeds and Biden wins this election, I think by next summer there will be a mass amnesia for the majority about the TDS insanity over the last few years. If it goes the other way, I'll be terribly worried for the future of western civilization. Hell, a Trump win and a lost senate and an ambiguous house will completely castrate the executive, so it would be a bit reassuring to see the senate at least get a little more Republican.
I like to joke about how much the left (and so does the right, but they're not the problem right now) is fond of projection. But there's a big kernel of truth to it.
Remember all those histrionics about Trump setting up concentration camps for LGBT, women being reduced to broodmares, illegals being executed on the spot, and the streets being filled with fascist death squads killing with impunity?
None of it happened, of course. But they were scared of it because that's exactly what they would do if they were in complete control.
The kinda-sorta silver lining is that we all know they want revenge, but we also know they're more scared of us than we are of them.The left regaining power is our day of reckoning because the only policy they will pursue is a policy of revenge and it will be brutal.
We won't go quietly. The Democrats can count on that.
