"We are in the grip of a soft totalitarianism which is no less deadly for being soft. Instead of threatening people with prison for having the wrong opinions, it threatens them with unemployment. If we actually had labor camps and midnight arrests, and state censors sitting in newspaper offices and TV studios, people might take notice what was going on. As it is, they just wonder why everything gets worse and nobody does anything about it"

Peter Hitchens "Mail on Sunday" column September 10, 2017

What Peter Hitchens writes about from his own vantage point in the UK applies to this side of the Atlantic.....

If you have the wrong opinion you risk losing your job. And quite often, you do lose your job.

One visible victim of this process is Judge Roy Moore, Moore lost his job twice. He was removed as Alabama's Chief Justice for putting a Ten Commandments monument in the Supreme Court building and refusing to obey a federal court ruling against it. Recently he was again removed as Chief Justice.....court ruling on gay marriage in Alabama.

The recent hostility to President Trump's condemnation of violence from all sides in Charlottesville and refusal of anyone with one notable exception in the White House in standing with him in noting the violence of the left-wing elements there speaks volumes as the kind of "soft totalitarianism" we live under.

....force his conformity to this totalitarianism, a joint resolution of the Uniparty (Democrat and Republican) members of Congress was sent for his signature to roundly condemn racists, KKK, neo-Nazis for violence while ignoring the left-wing Antifa violence.

.....no one else in the White House would share President Trump's accurate observation about events in Charlottesville, that includes Vice President Mike Pence. Pence is campaigning in Alabama for Luther Strange.......
