Lefties are always whining about the 50’s era blacklist against commies, but have no problem instituting one of their own against anyone who thinks differently than they do.
These are millennial no brains.
To them, the 50’s might as well be ancient Egypt.................
I think that it is a matter of baseline personality. Lefties, at their core, are pretty much demanding children who want all the other kids to only play specific games, and only in one specific way. They are control freaks who seek to bend others to their will - it is what they do. Normal people just want to live their lives, and leave others alone to live theirs. The Puritans, at their worst, look like freewheeling hippies when compared to Lefties.

It isnt just that they do this (and they clearly do), but when you point this out to them they either deny it or have some rationalization for it (usually along the lines of, You Nazis deserve it - which I find rather ironic and infuriating because my family had somewhere north of 70 people murdered by the Nazis). I always point out that if anyone in the conversation is acting like a Nazi it is them, and that they need to seriously reconsider the path that theyre on.
Of course, now they have the Trump Accountability Project, which is as Nazi-like of an endeavor as we have seen in this country since we forced about 120,000 Japanese and American citizens of Japanese descent into concentration camps (which are very bad, but still quite distinguishable from the death camps run by the Nazis). As a reminder, all interned there has been forced to divest their homes and businesses within a very short time, so they effectively had their property seized because they couldnt get anything close to full value - I know this because my father went to school with a guy whose father lost a life roof hard work by being forced to sell his house and dental practice for pennies on the dollar - this, just a short time after the Depression ended. The TPA seeks to do essentially the same thing (and, perhaps, quite a bit more - the fact that they arent saying to execute Trump supporters for the crime against humanity of backing Trump doesnt mean that they dont WANT to do that - they are, after all, totalitarians).
