Yes, Shakespeare killed off as many high born in his plays as your alter ego did of Romans aristocrats in the proscriptions...
Speaking of proscriptions - I wonder if our radical republicans are putting together such a list?
I understand the Left have a list 25 million patriots they’d sent to a GULAG in the Southwest for “re-eduaction”, if you believe Bill Ayers.
Personally, I think the Southwest would be too good to send the Leftists after their defeat in the inevitable civil war. I have something much better in mind for them - The Aleutian Islands off Alaska. I’ll bet on Shemya alone we could put at least 40,000 and at Adak a good 250,000 Leftist POWs. This region has arctic weather and cold Being Sea makes escape impossible.
I do not think/hope it will come to that. But for methodology it is hard to beat Robespierre.
