I haven’t agreed with much of what you’ve said lately, but I agree (mostly) with this post.
The sticking point is the blind obedience. Maybe not to what is perceived as authority, but there seem to be plenty who blindly follow some sort of authority. Who is pulling the antifa strings? How do you explain the Clinton fans still defending her in the face of so many obvious crimes? (My explanation is willful ignorance. Or maybe just garden variety ignorance.)
These people follow blindly. But their leader is not “traditional authority”. Joke’s on them. They’ve just substituted one authority figure for a different one.
coppertropicals, the granny Youtuber who hosts Dutchsinse’s earthquake videos, was stopped at a DUI checkpoint, and refused to “show her papers” because she wasn’t suspected of a crime.
