In his June 20, 2020 J’accuse, Tucker Carlson, for all practical purposes, cancelled the Republican Party: “Property was looted,” he roared, “people were beaten and killed and Republicans joined the side doing the looting, beating and killing. President of the Heritage Foundation and think tanks on the right betrayed law enforcement and ordinary Americans, calling them racists, ignoring the damage done to their property and person.”
Jack Kerwick has been anatomizing just such failures and betrayals dished out by the ConOink establishment for over a decade, writing in January of 2021, of virus-related tyranny that,
“…the country bequeathed to us by the generation that, in the midst of a smallpox epidemic, fought and defeated the most powerful empire in the world in order to be a self-governing union of sovereign states—subjected itself to a nationwide internment.
The United State of America became the Interned States of America as the Constitution of the Old Republic was indefinitely revoked, the economy crushed, and ‘the little platoons’—as Burke referred to those buffers between the individual and the State, those forms of community constitutive of civil society and in the absence of which human flourishing would be impossible—were radically undermined. … And all of this occurred in a country with a Republican President, a Republican-controlled Senate, a Supreme Court dominated by Republican appointees, and a majority of whose state legislatures and governors are Republican.” [Emphasis added.]
As captivated as voters on the right may be by the promise of the primaries, they’d be wise to remember the nature of the Republican Racket—the duopoly or uniparty swindle, for that matter.
You’ve been here before. Elections in our country are a national bipolar mood disorder that sees our side, the right, swing from halcyon highs under the Stupid Party to nadir lows under the Evil Party, except that there never is long-term, real relief.
With a difference. Something huge happened in our country in the past few years. It is not hyperbole to say the republic has been lost. To paraphrase the great Naomi Wolf, we are at a civilizational crossroads, still living under emergency law, the Constitution suspended. We’ve adjusted to tyranny and no one is the wiser.
Certainly not any Republican.
Some of us have long held that the republic of blessed memory was lost ages ago. Others still hold out hope for a small “r” republican revival. Even the most Panglossian among us must acknowledge that a tipping point was reached during COVID.
THE DEMOCRATS have always set the terms of debate; Democrats stand tall for their core principles, as atrocious as these manifestly are.
Consider: How does the illiberal left deal with Republicans? They leverage against their political opponents the full force of the managerial, permanent state, which they’ve captured. They galvanize the DOJ (Department of Justice), the Security and the Surveillance State to destroy as many conservatives as possible. Rivulets of words like “treason” and “white supremacist” soon run through the Democrat-dominated media and through other intellectual means of production captured. Subpoenas are issued. Congressional hearings are hastily begun; impeachment proceedings set in motion. The criminal arm of the Democrat Party is marshaled in quick succession. These vampiric operatives—BLM, Antifa, demented distaff—are soon staking out, stalking and canceling conservatives making life intolerable. Simultaneously, and in addition to utterly demonizing their opposition, Democrats typically plug away at making the country ungovernable, lawless, diverse to the point of distrust.
Against the potency of the Democrats, Republicans offer only impotence. The GOP strives to fit in. The typical ConOinksters—the con artists formerly known as neoconservatives, as Establishment Republicans, as ConInc, or the “Big Con”—their existence consists in pacifying the left and deceiving the right.
Blunt is better: Republicans live like you would in a gay bathhouse: on their knees. At every turn, they apologize and expiate for their principles. Their feeble reaction to Democrat depredations, in general, has the effect of normalizing decadence, degeneracy, lawlessness, and breakdown of all standards—the systemic institutional rot that is convulsing the country. Republican reaction to a steady stream of brazen invaders breaking the Southern border, in particular, is to whinge ever-so occasionally and oh-so softly.
By Republican telling, it is the Democrats who made immigration enforcement impossible. Not so! George Bush would still wrestle a crocodile for an illegal immigrant. Collaboration between the parties over the years codified into law that no invader could be turned back. By mutual agreement between the parties, no sooner do these criminal aliens cross into the Unites State and plonk themselves on our side of the Rio Grande—than they must be “processed” and released, never booted. The Wall was always meant as a cheap election ploy to excite the febrile imagination of the voter. That, Donald Trump understood. So, instead, the former president did an ingenious workaround: Trump “erected a bureaucratic wall that expelled unauthorized immigrants on the southern border,” forcing them to bunk-down in Mexico.
Back to COVID: Is there one GOPer running in the primaries who has promised and comprehends how to ensure that no centrally or locally directed lock-down will ever occur again? Any conservative campaigning on a serious examination of lockdown crimes against the citizens and travel restrictions on the unvaxed? Has even one of the Republican candidates traipsing through Fox News’ green room addressed the creation of an unvaccinated underclass (villains all) and a vaccinated upper-class (virtuous)? Who among these contemptible clowns clawing their way to D.C. has even mentioned the fact that we the unvaxed are still being denied access—based not on active aggression we’re committing, but rooted in our peaceful rejection of the corporate, State-mediated aggression against us: We won’t take the Hemlock.
Is a single Republican moron proposing to ensure that never again will the medical idiocracy—bona fides established during the pandemic—come between a dying patient and his family?
Remember how Republicans, during COVID, would prattle about religious exemptions (state granted!) and natural-immunity based exemptions (state granted!)—but had not the faintest urge to defend the natural, God-given right of self-ownership? I do. You should, too! Almost to a man, did most of the Republicans we endured on TV during COVID prance onto the set, boasting self-righteously: “I’ve had the vaccine, I’m for science, but I support the rights of my rube-hick constituents to reject it.”
Anyone running to permanently restore due process of law lost by so many Americans, especially the Jan. 6 dissidents? Show me the Republican lout who is able to articulate that, no, we don’t need new laws. No other country has as many laws as the United States Code. (Attempts to count the number of laws scattered over upwards of 23,000 pages have failed.) How about electing people who understand how to uphold rights already instantiated in the founding documents, and forcefully enforce the laws that ensure ordered liberty?
In this context, has Rep. Chris Stewart heard about the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution? Tucker Carlson invited this prototype Republican to talk up legislation to outlaw the Surveillance State (National Security Agency spying on us), all TV theater and farce. The Fourth Amendment already does that.
Lastly, what, if anything, have Republicans done to stop policy and society from taking on an anti-white hue? They rabbit on about Critical Race Theory (CRT), framing it as Marxism, when it is, as I’ve pointed out for years, unadulterated anti-white agit prop.
For Republicans, moreover, it seems impossible to mention white suffering without dragging in the “black experience.” Republicans just can’t seem to protect or stick up for besieged whites and are forever searching their brains for ways to show off how black-focused they are. Channeled by conservative TV windbags, CRT is said to be bad not because it’s pure and simple anti-white racism tinged by ethnocide—not Marxism—but because it demeans the nobility and abilities of blacks. Likewise, black violent crime conservative bobbleheads lament because it hurts blacks the most, rather than because it rips through 87 percent of the rest of society.
The provenance of the current COVID and anti-speech corporate tyranny—with business free to screen out and reject employees based purely and solely on their COVID vaccine status or on the thoughts they express—is the Republican Party.
On HARD TRUTH, David Vance and I speak to Jack Kerwick about the irreparably hopeless Republican Racket. RIP, GOP.

Ilana Mercer has been writing a weekly, paleolibertarian think piece since 1999. She’s the author of Into the Cannibal’s Pot: Lessons for America From Post-Apartheid South Africa (2011) & The Trump Revolution: The Donald’s Creative Destruction Deconstructed” (June, 2016). She’s on Twitter, Gab, Gettr YouTube & LinkedIn; banned by Facebook, and has a new video-podcast.

I hope the mean black bitch steals the 2024 election. The worst that can happen is another great white hope.
You go Tucker! A concerted effort should be made to get rid of Mitch the Bitch McConnell’s old jowly ass. The go after Lady G. –with those two out of the way, we can work on the rest of them. Like AOC has her Squad – can MAGA folks start something similar & call the The Posse?
Ms. Mercer’s April 21 column (‘Tarded’ Medical Idiocrat Won’t Treat ‘Unscannables’ Like Me) implied that she had foregone the Pfizer, etc., injections. But when those words are read carefully, she hadn’t actually said so. I pointed this out in a comment with which another reader (“Liza”) registered Agree, and the author chose to leave the question open.
Now she writes:
Is Ms. Mercer merely identifying with/as “we the unvaxed”? If she’s in fact taken the shot(s), how many, when, and why?
Matt was non-plussed, “Er quite,” he said, “What exactly was it that Socrates did?”
“He started the idea that one should humiliate and embarrass those who disagreed with you.
That the only ‘formal’ means of discourse was adversarial debate. That a ‘perfect’ answer or solution was better than a marginally imperfect one, regardless of the damage and hurt caused by the answer. There had always to be a winner and a loser when arguing an issue. Socrates was of course always the winner.
Plato went on to embody ‘dissect and analyse’ as the only method by which knowledge is gained. Aristotle then dissected and analysed everything he could get his hands on. Creating lists and genera and classes, dividing by appearance and by function, trying to list the causes of everything he saw. He started by dividing everything into one of three groups, but found this too complicated for most people so he reduced his divisions into two groups. Everything had to be one of two choices, a dichotomy one can see to this day. Republicans and Democrats, Labour and Conservatives, Pro Life and Abortionist. Only the extremes are permitted, what happened to the vast ground in between? Plato in teaching rhetoric called it ‘Argument by excluded middle’.
What about recognising that both extremes have positive and negative aspects? Why not settle in the centre, why not embrace the positive and discard the negative from both, are they truly incompatible? People are conned into having to make a decision. They fight long campaigns, and spend enormous amounts of money, over whether the taxation rate should be 37% or 39%, and everybody has to pick one or the other.
Do you know that in 1924, a Bankers Association publication suggested ‘By dividing the voter through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting for questions of no importance. It is thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves that which has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished.’
Why don’t we rule by consensus? What is the hurry? Why is it that a decision that has been waiting for 20 years or 50 years has to be made by Wednesday? If the decision is right, it will still be right on Thursday, but if it is wrong a million people could be harmed over the next ten or 50 years. If you can’t convince all the people around you, how can they convince the people around them? Hippocrates in politics, ‘First do no harm’, not to anyone, not even your enemies. Of course, if you don’t do any harm, you don’t have many enemies.
We have to stop this vitriolic ridicule and humiliation of anyone who does not subscribe to your views.
There may not be a cosmic law that says the world must be filled with happiness and love, but I couldn’t find a law that says it has to be filled with bitterness and hatred either.”

and that is why a ‘single party’ state or a benevolent dictatorship is both more beneficial to society and such a huge threat to the Western Elite who have used Bernays to con the populace and money to buy the politicians.

Neither has Carlson. Just last night he denigrated Venezuela’s economy…when the U. S. is largely responsible for their problems through the U.S. attempt to gain control of their oil reserves through sanctions. Now the U. S. is begging Venezuela for oil.
Carlson is controlled opposition…a sham. He is not your friend. If Carlson were the real thing, he would not have a platform. The power elite is playing for keeps.
It seems she has finally gotten over the existential crisis she had in April of 2020. I assume libertarians are allowed to breath on each other again?

“We’ve adjusted to tyranny and no one is the wiser.”
In 2007, Canada famously paid a Syrian man $10 million in compensation because he claimed to have been imprisoned for ten months in his home country Syria, because of a flawed Canadian intelligence warrant relating to the ‘war on terror’.
It was said at the time that life under Bashar Assad was pretty good, as long as you don’t piss off the regime. The Syrian man, Maher Arar, came back to his adopted country Canada without a scratch on him, but claimed to have been “tortured” by Syrian interrogators. Canada felt sorry for him and cut him a check for $10 million.
Now, under Trudeau, Canada is a place where you have to watch what you say and do. The regime in Canada has slid closer into alignment with Assad’s Syria, as far as rights go.

Ms. Mercer also helped Uncle Sam and the Establishment exploit the dempanic with Exceptional! pieces like “Actually, COVID Comes Courtesy of the Chinese PEOPLE” (October 22, 2020).
The potential long term negative effects of the lockdowns were not considered due to the hysteria surrounding Covid. Primarily, these were negative economic effects. Money was printed up and passed out to individuals so they could stay home and to businesses so they could stay closed. This money printing is now leading to skyrocketing inflation and the impoverishment of the American people. Wealthier people tend to live longer so making people poorer is likely to lead to reduced lifespans for people in the future.
In addition to the economic effects, you also had the negative psychological effects. This is especially the case with young people, who have a psychological need to socialize with others of their age. This damage can be difficult to measure but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. During and after the lockdowns you saw increased numbers of suicide attempts among young people and increased drug and alcohol abuse among young people leading to more early deaths. The increase in crime among young people may also be related to the lockdowns. For example, relatives of the Buffalo shooter said he first started having psychological problems when he was subjected to the isolation and lack of human contact that happened to many young people during the Covid lockdowns.
Yup! The Republicans suck. But the Democrats want to kill me.
Agree wholeheartedly! But to the brainwashed masses it is always because we elected the wrong people & if we could just elect the correct people everything will be peaches. Wise up folks, the real ‘pandemic’ is believing in the necessity of politics, namely the primacy of democracy.
Privatize everything the government does. Competition is the great leveler.
I cancelled the Republicans 30 years ago during the Rodney Kang riots. Pappy Bush sat on his soft, aging hands while Blacks ran wild in America’s second largest city. This was about the time I discovered the Jewish question.
Democrats? Even some of those staunch Southern Dixie-crats were phony baloney shysters. Strom Thurmond has a child with a Black lady, but amazingly I believe this was never revealed until after that fossil was laid to rest. Politicians? Nothing but a bunch of worthless scoundrels of the lowest order.
White poor and White working class America has no voice in Washington and it is debatable if they ever had a voice.
Grandpa Ronnie Reagan? Reagan was an actor and he deserved an Oscar for the 8 year run as President.
Trump? Slumlord, bone spurs, NYC businessman who kisses Jew and Black ass just a tad less than the doddering waste known as Joe Biden. Trump played red state git-r-dones like fiddle, did absolutely nothing for the people he coached to storm the Capitol but made sure to pardon his rich Jew buddies and some Black female drug dealer and some Black rapper languishing in a comfy Swedish jail or some other “jail” in Europe.
Despite the ambivalence many have on this forum towards ILANA, she has once again nailed the absolute truth on the establishment Republicans. I’ve said it myself dozens of times, they aren’t useless, they are “less than useless” as they allow the left and far left to steam roll over conservative Americans. Just observe what they “Don’t” do and what they support. People are sitting in prison, who have not even been officially charged with “insurrection” after 16months!. Mitch McConnell and his followers, never say a word about them yet McConnell instantly stated on Jan. 6 that he would never talk to Trump again. Pelosi didn’t even go so far!! McConnell and the rinos, have the the effect of doing nothing but emboldening the left and far left. MAGA types should refer to them as “Mavericks”.
Even seemingly hardcore conservatives like Jim Jordan genuflect to RINO GOP House minority leader McCarthy… there seems to be no escape for voters in fixing the mess we are in.
Its not the GOP that is the problem…its the apathy of the electorate.
The political parties are a reflection of the electorate…and the electorate has become amoral and corrupted through a criminal cabal who hs been dangling the carrot of great riches and success through the mass medua for generation.
But what the media doesn’t tell you is that you have to give up a portion of your humanity to achieve it.
So if the representatives in your parliament are corrupt and dishonest and unscrupulous then whose fault is that?
Who elects them!
Great article…and Mr. Carlson is one of the few reasons to have hope
for this nation. The left is now openly racist and does its best to
undermine the qualities that made the USA what it was.
That said, I think there may be times when a lockdown could be warranted.
But were such an event to happen, we should most definitely not amend
our election laws as was done so as to facilitate potential fraud. That and
preserve what’s left of the Constitution.
Just like Tucker will recount all the incidents of anti-white racism then do a 180 and tell the audience that anti-whiteness is really just a big head fake for class war.
Having corrupt and cowardly right-wing leaders is hardly a new problem. Over 160 years ago, Robert L. Dabney (“Stonewall” Jackson’s Chaplain!) wrote what is still a perfect description of today’s feckless “Conservative” Establishment:
“Its history has been that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is today one of the accepted principles of “conservatism;” it is “conservative” only in affecting to resist the next innovation, which will tomorrow be forced upon its timidity and will be followed by some third revolution, to be denounced and then adopted in its turn.
“American conservatism is merely the shadow that follows radicalism as it moves forward toward perdition. It remains behind it, but never retards it, and it always advances near its leader. This pretended salt hath utterly lost its savor; wherewith shall it be salted? Its impotency is not hard to explain. It is worthless because it is the conservatism of expediency only, and not of sturdy principle. It intends to risk nothing serious for the sake of truth.”
Despite more than a century and a half of political turmoil – and regular changes in the political party in charge – nothing has really changed. Our “Conservative” professional politicians are still the bunch of posers, cowards, and turncoats that they’ve always been.
Of course, seeming to add a bit of confusion to that picture is the fact that the northeastern “Progressives” of 1860 were the Republicans, and the Dems were the “Conservatives” – a complete reversal regarding the two parties’ current positions. But it’s not really “confusion.” It just demonstrates that the two “Parties” are ultimately interchangeable…”not a dime’s worth of difference,” etc., as they march onward toward their final synthesis.
No….the problem is not the apathy of the people…..nor are the parties a reflection of the electorate.
Are you jewish?
The people are apathetic because they have no voice….and they have no voice because of organized jewry.
The GOP is filth….craven, cowardly, shabbos goy filth.
The DNC is filth…lying, violent, shabbos goy filth.
If you shutdown the FED and Jmedia, and stopped the nose from donating to both “sides,” that would correct the problem.
“Ask not, what your country can do for you…”-JFK. Too many whiny unmotivated entitled work-averse adult children, is the problem today. Whether or not you vote or belong to a political party, doesn’t really matter, but when people start tying up congress’ phone lines with stupid @#$%, govt. dysfunction will soon follow. Grow up, pull your socks up, and put your time on this earth to good use. And with that, good night.
What are you waiting for…the down trodden masses? The French didn’t wait…they lopped off the heads of the corrupt elite…then a new bunch of nee crooks took their place because the masses didn’t follow through with their involvement in democracy, that means everyone.
Same happened in Russia…after the revolution was over the people allowed criminals to control the narrative and model if government.
First thing a new regime does is to sideline the masses, make them spectators in their life.
No everybody has to be involved in the governing of their country…you can never leave it to others because they will only rule for themselves.
Set up residence abroad and cast your votes from there. They likely will be discarded or altered anyway, if an important election seems to be going the “wrong” way for the police state — just like if we sit here at “home” and wait for the walls to close in.
Exactly, I am glad to see others can see that Carlson is two-faced. He does that quite regularly…not on just this issue.
But refused to pardon the two that deserved it most Assange and Snowden.
Oooh yes, it is.
Another way of saying you’re a racist.
What you are saying is that Ashkenazi Jews are smarter than the people.
So get busy the numbers are 98-2 in your favor. Stop pissing and moaning and do something.
No, the forces were already in place. The actual tipping point was the assassination of JFK. With that came LBJ, Vietnam, the great society, immigration, and the rest. I am ancient. When I was growing up, almost everything was fine; terrific, in fact. Do you believe me? To an oldster like me, the affronts, compromises and humiliations of daily life are especially hard to endure. But some places are far better than others, less brusque and charmless, and more decent, in the daily life sense, for now at least.
Haven’t watched Tucker for awhile now. Grew weary of Tucker and the color blind “conservative” approach of bringing on Jew homosexuals, forget that clowns name, Candace Owens, and other non white guests to school Whitey on what he gets wrong and how “we” can get “our” country back.
Tucker is the flavor of the month. Remember when “the man” was Bill O’ Lielly? Billy Boy once had the very amiable David Duke on as a guest and predictably shouted over Duke. Billy was such a tough guy back before that little sex scandal popped up. Anywho, all these “no spin” dudes like Tucker and O’ Lielly will always disappoint in the end like Judas. I think good ole Tuck & Bill have a lot in common with Judas. They all were bought off by the same people.
Stop browbeating her. Can’t you see she’s sexy?
The regime in Canada has slid closer into alignment with Johnson’s Britain.
Marjorie Taylor Greene don’t do no ‘flectin’.
You’re absolutely correct about that apathy but why does one have to give up a portion of one’s humanity to achieve success, even great success?
No, Canadian “authorities” (or was it (((authorities))) ) told US “authorities” with no evidence, that Arar was likely a “terrorist” and that he should be interrogated while returning to Canada via the US. They did nothing to protect the rights of a Canadian citizen, and in fact, aided another country in the mistreatment of a citizen as it did with Omar Khadr. Whether there were signs of physical injuries is irrelevant.
Whether Arar or Khadr should have been Canadian citizens in the first place, is a different issue.
Since I retired I have not had to deal with any of that anymore.
I go where I am treated with decency and respect–and stay far away from everywhere else.
The only stress I have is having to strain my brain to come up with new excuses for the wife as to why we are not traveling.
Blaming Covid worked for a while–now faking illness seems to be a good new tactic, but don’t want to overplay my hand.
😉
In reference to your mention of travel, I’ve found that the southern parts of the eastern and central US are where an old geezer like me can experience courtesy and respect for my age. I’m assuming, though, that you include travel within the US as “travel”.
I enjoy those parts of the country as well, but the airport concentration camp beta test, the crowded airplanes and the other hassles of traveling are just not worth it for me at this point.
As I get older I am more honest with myself about everything.
I would like travel a lot more is I was wealthy and had a private jet with a private pilot, a limo driver and six homes in my favorite locales.
Otherwise, fuggedaboutit!
Somehow, I missed this great article when it first appeared on TUR, though I always look for Ilana’s latest. Bar none, it’s her finest, demonstrating how impotent are the republicans, including Trump, when facing ferocious, determined democrats. Schumer runs rings around slow-witted McConnell (why is he still the R’s Senate leader?). And McCarthy is no match for octogenarian Pelosi.
After two straight bloodbaths only a few days apart look for republicans to cave on gun control. They’ve already caved on wasting another $40 billion on the Biden Regime’s Ukraine fiasco. It’s really at the point that I no longer care if they take back Congress in November. It would serve them right if they didn’t. They promise great things, Trump sure did, but nothing important ever changes for the better. As Yeats said one hundred years ago: “The best lack all conviction, while the worst all full of passionate intensity.”
I applaud Tucker for being against the Ukraine war from the beginning. As things continue to go south for Zelenskyy, and as more of his cannon fodder troops die for their Jewish masters, or get smart and surrender, I look for others in the media to join him. No one wants to stick with a sure loser.
And, yet, as always, Tucker feels compelled to pull his punches. When bringing up this Brothers’ War, white men killing white men in great numbers, he always starts by prefacing his comments by stating that it is ALL Putin’s fault for starting it, though he knows damn well that Russia has been provoked into fighting due to constant US aggression, not just since Nuland’s 2014 coup, but ever since the fall of the USSR.
Abandoning the most powerful political machine on the planet into the hands of people you KNOW will use that machine to oppress freedom, coerce markets and stifle individual liberty at an ever-accelerating rate is not a strategy for the successful defense of Liberty. That’s not saying that to abandon the GOP can’t enhance your personal freedom for some or all of your remaining years, only that Liberty, the idea of liberty, remains under escalating attack for the full duration of your remaining years and by abandoning the most powerful political machine on the planet you signal that you’re OK with that. Only one thing is certain in this situation: wresting control of that machine will be harder later, always.
Those “enjoy liberty while you have it” folks talk a good game but they also have done nothing to defend Liberty from constant erosion or outright oppression. At least not so far in my 40+ years of paying attention to the consequences of human actions that are chosen by liberty-talking individuals as described by the law of human action. They perceive value in the actions they choose, talking. What rationalizations they use after the fact make no difference in the long run because the choices are made and the consequences follow without any regard for the various self-aggrandizing rationales folks offer for having made the choices.
I tried for years to get into entry level jobs for Fox news subsidiaries. Every time I applied almost the next day you would hear their anchors becoming unhinged about getting occupied by Leftists and Democrats. Then they would scream about people not wanting to work after they turned me down countless times for entry level jobs. This is concerning because when I went to the Democrats, they started going ballistic about the Right entering in their domain, so when I apply to the Republicans; they go crazy and call me a Leftist. When I go to the Democrats, they accuse me of being Right and even Far Right. Both sides have an excuse for not employing entry level workers now. If you are the enemy, we will not hire you. On top of that we will accuse you of being lazy and not trying to find work even though my application track record is listed on both sides of applying.
Forgot to say, think of the implications of this. If our elites are able to simply put a Left or Right label on you and that label affects your ability to get even entry level work, then the very prospect of voting is terrifying as it can damage career paths and even survival. Neither side has the capacity for basic mercy to the people below them.
“the very prospect of voting is terrifying as it can damage career paths and even survival.”
I tend to be about twenty years early in most things (it can be good or bad, sometimes part of both) and I figured out early that registering to vote would make a part of my life public that I wanted to keep private–and that the Internet would make it easy for anyone to use that information against me.
Eventually other folks are gonna figure it out…..
Fageddabout it indeed. I limit travel to little trips that I can make by car. 500 miles is a long trip by that standard.
