Democrat devolution
American Thinker ^ | 1 Jun, 2024 | Eric Utter

If one speaks out too strongly against the Democrats, there will be consequences. But I will continue to do so anyway.

“My definition of a free society is a society where it is safe to be unpopular. Where it’s safe to say what’s on your mind, especially when everyone disagrees. Where it’s safe to believe what you believe, especially when everyone else’s beliefs stand elsewhere.” — Adlai Stevenson

Adlai Stevenson was a Democrat. (In fact, he ran for president in 1952 and 1956, losing twice to Dwight Eisenhower.)

Hard to believe today when the Donkey Party is composed almost entirely of radical leftists bent on suppressing or eliminating any belief, thought, or utterance that it fears could possibly tend to lessen its grip on power. It’s not just “The Squad,” or the likes of Adam Schiff who are keen to stymie, cancel, erase, or shut down opposing viewpoints. Nearly all of today’s Democrats disdain the First Amendment in their tyrannical lust for eternal power and control, President Biden chief among them.

Another Democrat, Harry Truman, once stated: “We need not fear the expression of ideas—we do need to fear their suppression.”

And the person who many claim founded the Democratic Party, Thomas Jefferson, solemnly averred: “I have sworn, on the altar of God, eternal hostility to all forms of tyranny over the minds of man.”

Today, the “Democratic” president is trying to imprison his Republican rival. College campuses are hermetically sealed off from anyone with an allegedly “conservative” or traditional viewpoint. Federal agencies warn media outlets against telling the truth. Speaking out against the pandemic-induced lockdowns, social distancing requirements, mask mandates, or COVID-19(84) vaccines, could lead to your being mocked, shadow-banned, or pink-slipped depending on your circumstances. Challenging “climate-change” orthodoxy will get you branded a “Denier”

Stalin, Hitler or Mao? I happen to think we are headed toward Maoism with the public show trials and punishment which were not really for the defendant, but to intimidate the stadium full of observers.

Marxism is premised on the total destruction of reality, then calling their view of the world science. Then, when you disagree with a Marxist you are a science denier

Marxist create an un-real thing to attack a real value.

Core of Marxism, a complete attack on your identity

After the manipulated election is stolen and Obiden is still in office(or his replacement if he is bedridden and drooling by then) I suspect the frequency of SWAT raids increases rapidly and includes many more deaths of surprised home residents who just happen to be pro life activists, believing Christians, gun shop owners and generally political dissidents. Many more arrests and trials of political opponents will be pursued to guilty verdicts on “evidence” and testimony flimsier than the recent Manhattan travesty. More strategically placed heart attacks will occur in incorrigible wrongthinkers. When the Democrats are thus firmly in power this time the Republic will be at a complete end and the Total State will be inaugurated and will last until the severe weakening of the military will cause Islam and China to aggressively and officially take over most of the rest of the world. The next great Confrontation and Struggle will between those two protaganists.

In accordance with your frightening vision, I can see a special federal armed force created, consisting of many of the young “newcomer” males, who will patrol the streets of America to “protect democracy.”

Things certainly seem to be moving in the direction of what you describe.

That does not seem far-fetched.

They definitely will feel embolden if they retain power by any means this November. I agree tyranny will be on full display as they consolidate their power.

I agree; Maoism is the model they are going for. Already NY University is forcing students to write "Reflection Papers", which are not allowed to contain a defense of the student's conduct and could cause legal liability for the students later in life. Frightening stuff.
Why is New York University making protesters watch The Simpsons as punishment?

We seem to be doing Decline and Fall in a few decades. Rome required several centuries but had no major enemies prodding and suborning.

I agree, NORM EISEN of the Brookings Institute and Lawfare Institute is the architect.

All of us need to speak out against Democrats.

Democrats are the party of the KKK, commies, Hamas and criminals so really, why are holding back?
