Unbelievable 😡
So in America right now, if you speak or believe anything other than what is “approved” by those in power you face:
Losing committee memberships
Getting kicked out of the military
Losing the ability to communicate on the largest social media platforms
Losing your job
Having your company’s products blacklisted
Being disbarred
Being censured
And if you happen to have been at a Trump rally/protest, even if you did nothing wrong, you can get a visit from the FBI and maybe even get arrested.
Watching the vote live.
Straight Party line vote so far except one disgusting R has voted aye.
Don’t know who.

SECESSION, BANISHMENT OR EXILE?We have all read posts and articles about ways to address what seems to be an unbridgeable chasm between leftsts and conservatives in America today.
Ideas floated are generally some variation of secession or an agreement on somehow splitting the nation geographically into Red America and Blue America.And therein lies the problem - How to separate geographically when leftists and conservatives all share the same ground, the same neighborhoods and towns?
Of course the large cities and states like California and New York are more heavily leftist but some conservatives still live there.
And some states and many (most?) rural areas are more heavily populated by conservatives but leftists reside there as well.But now we see that leftists have arrived at a solution based on ideology and thought rather than geography.
With their "Cancel Culture" they are creating two Americas right before our eyes.
Their America controls the government and courts, and most, if not all, of the things that comprise American culture today: the news media, social media,
entertainment industry, schools and colleges, large employers, Amazon, "Silicon Valley", etc.They have have decided to exile non-leftists from American life while leaving them in place - at least for now.
In effect they are declaring any non-democrat a NON-PERSON and deny them a place in democrat controlled America.To do so they have weaponized the entities and resources they control to persecute and punish conservatives and others not marching in lockstep with them.
They now shun conservatives, hound them out of restaurants, physically attack them, and bar them in every possible way from participating in
and being part of leftist controlled society and culture.How long can conservatives linger on?
- When their children are shunned, ridiculed and even attacked by teachers, classmates, neighbors?
- When their children are not welcome or allowed to participate in organized sports?
- When their children are denied equal education opportunities and blacklisted by colleges?
- When they and their children are not welcome in clubs, community activities or social gatherings?
- When they are blacklisted from the better jobs - or any jobs?
- When they are blacklisted from social media?
- When businesses refuse to serve them or sell to them?
- When the places they are welcome (or allowed) become fewer and fewer?
- When financial institutions refuse them credit, car loans, mortgages, school loans?
- When they are barred from government jobs, law enforcement and the military?
- When they do not receive equal treatment by government agencies or courts?
We all know that it is not legal to bar or blacklist people based on race, sexual preference, etc.
But so far it is accepted as perfectly legitimate to bar, blacklist and even attack people based on their ideology or political views.This "Cancel Culture" movement is undeniably a variation of the bigotry and discrimination that led to and fueled the infamous Kristallnacht.
Is there any doubt at all that democrats will devise and implement some sort of "Final Solution" of their own if allowed to continue unchecked?
Is there any doubt at all that the republican party has demonstrated it is not up to the job and is incapable of turning back the democrat onslaught?
