Coronavirus seals in concrete the fact that Democrats, just as they are the Party of slavery, are the real Nazis in this world.

The variety of Democrats that are now in control of the DNC are not Nazis. They are something much, much worse, a sanctimonious bunch, for the most part, who are doing all this “for your own good”. Command-and-control, by whatever name it goes by, is only peripherally related to any concept of “socialism”, a sophistry intended to cloak the true aim of command-and-control regimes.

A small elite holds virtually life-and-death decisions over the great number of the undifferentiated herd, and exploits them, sometimes unmercifully, for their own benefit or perhaps sadistic pleasure. Getting the herd to agree in perpetuity to their own bondage is the ongoing problem, in the eyes of the elite, as this has been the common state of mankind ever since social organizations have risen above the clan or tribal level, and even at that level, the alpha rule over the betas was recognized and sometimes strongly enforced.

From time to time there have been revolutions against this top-down rule of the herd by the elites, and elites get toppled, in a fit of “rule by the people”. These declarations of a republic are for the most part relatively short-lived, only until there is perceived an opportunity for a cunning minority to become once again consolidate into a ruling elite. Once they gain rule, this elite plays “king of the mountain”, resisting all efforts to dislodge their grip on the levers of power.

The American Experiment, embodied in the Declaration of Independence and delineated in the words of the US Constitution, as amended, have served well to draw a baseline of what the ruling elite is or is not permitted to impose upon the people. A means of periodically taking one set of elites out of ruling capacity and at least substituting a different and more idealistic set of elites has worked well up through most of the history of the United States of America. But what has happened in recent years is the roughshod dismissal of the meaning and intent of these founding documents, and once that precedent is set, the ever more loosened interpretation of even the very meaning of words and context.

Civilization itself is on the line, and the failure to overcome these assaults on the bastions of individual freedoms shall only lead to collapse.
