Thanks for posting it, and I won’t ask you to comment on it.
That said, God help me, I have nearly come to the knee-jerk conclusion that if the State of Massachusetts is against something, I have to be for it.
The Massachusetts state government is so Leftist, so corrupt, and so venal, that I find it hard to come across any policy of their opponents that I will not embrace.
Yes. To me, it is that bad.
OCEARCH’s staff is lucky that the Mass. Marxists don’t burn their boats and then them at the stake. It’s an old Massachusetts solution to people they don’t like.

I share much the same perspective, rlmorel.
Born and raised on Cape Cod. My career as tech industry journalist was made in Massachusetts, to which I'm deeply grateful.
There's a hearty and intelligent stock of people who live in Massachusetts. But the Baizou spirit is strong there.
There's Martha's Vineyard, where many rich New Yorkers have come to settle thanks to DeBlasio turning NYC into a Covid19 gulag.
Add in: Kennedy-land, New England Patriots, the home of American Revolution, famous colleges, Big Tech/MIT, and the nickname given to the State: "The Hub of the Universe". These factors have created an elevated pride among its residents.
Combine that with the Irish political machine on Beacon Hill and the power of group think and Orwellian correctness, and you have the perfect storm of cocky, thick-headed and destructive policies.
Even the republicans who have come to power in the Bay State -- Mitt Romney, Bill Weld, and Charlie Baker -- would cause John Adams and Paul Revere to roll over in their graves.
The question is: which factor will destroy Cape Cod first: white sharks or crushing Covid19 restrictions that swallow up the Cape's tourist business.
