“I always say there’s nothing stopping those Leftwing Loonies from living that lifestyle now”
It is not about THEM living that lifestyle, it is about YOU. Assuming you are not culled beforehand, YOU will live that lifestyle and THEY will make sure you comply.
I understand that, completely. I’m making a facetious point about their willingness (or lack thereof) to live up to their own demands placed on everyone else.
