We are kind of going a little bit off topic in this thread even if some of the comments observations are really good.


The topic is tyranny... Not just government tyranny, but also cultural tyranny and even intellectual tyranny.


I read a tweet yesterday which I now I cannot find that said, quoting as closely as possible as I can remember - "a trans female is also a biological female."


Now this ranks among the most anti-intellectual and anti-scientific comments I have read, but did I protest this fact in the particular echo chamber that I had happened to stumble into?


Not on your life, I would have been Twitter mod and perhaps even suspended by our tyrannical friend, Jack Dorsey (or will likely one of his ambiguously humanoid Green haired moderators.)


This to me as both cultural and intellectual tyranny... Me disagreeing with this person based on all established science would have been seen as some sort of acids and or Nazism of some or another phobia.


Blind Freddy can see that political tyranny is rearing it's ugly head in the United States (purportedly the land of the free and the home of the Brave). The absolute vast majority of Trump supporters are just ordinary conservative folks, people with families, who go to church, run a small business or have a job.... people who are interested in liberty but equally are willing to take responsibility for themselves.


These are the people, if they haven't already been persecuted in some way, are nowliving under the Sword of Damocles, wondering if they will be the next to be victim of the foetid hive-mind of the regressive left.


As much as the president elect was reading platitudes of unity from his autocue, the rest of his party was invecting (sic) threats of persona non grata, and even violence.


As I see it there are only two ways this can go. Either United States becomes a totalitarian state government by the radical/woke left, or there will be civil war.


My guess is the latter, but in the meantime it is going to be the clown world on steroids. Irrational hatred of Trump and by extension his supporters, buy an army of useful idiots, is going to be ample camouflage for a very toxic agenda to be advanced.


This is evident even here on the other side of the world and even here on ASF.


Bonne chance, Komrades.
