When we look at things like the DDR, Nazi Germany, Pol Pot’s Cambodia, North Korea, we see evil, human misery and degradation, fear, injustice, etc. when Democrats look at these governments they see wonderful things. They see bureaucrats with unlimited power. They see a population that is forced to conform to every politician’s whim. They see a government ruling class that has the freedom to do exactly what it wants with a serf class that has no freedom at all and they think “that’s the way it should be here”. And I don’t know what Democrat voters think. I suspect they don’t think.
“When we look at things like the DDR, Nazi Germany, Pol Pot’s Cambodia, North Korea, we see evil, human misery and degradation, fear, injustice, etc...”
Union government has elements of all those.
