This is so Orwellian it staggers me. Stolen elections, armed National Guard and barbed wire in DC, censorship and cancelling of anyone who dares to contradict the government’s words and deeds, armed SWAT teams arresting unarmed and non-violent citizens, and the list goes on. This is absolute insanity.
It's staggering.

Any sense of proportion -- which is entirely lacking in our society -- would lead to utter outrage at what's going on.

But no, it's all good, cleansing society of evil, removing unwelcome elements, purifying the body politic and their physical bodies, as well.

Only it's not Orwellian. Welcome to 1930s Berlin.

The Nazis and Soviets designed their architecture to make its citizens feel small and powerless when entering a building. This is the same idea, make these people feel small and powerless, and of course, brand them all criminals. Luckily, they haven't been able to send them to a reeducation gulag yet.
