A brief response to our favorite Quislings.
The time has come to address the accusation from some of America’s biggest appeasers of woke authoritarianism that we on the right are the “authoritarians” our fellow citizens should fear.
The leaders of this smear campaign are people like David French, Charlie Sykes, Bill Kristol, and other self-appointed thought police of conservatism. For them, it is one step from fascism for Americans to direct governance toward the common good, i.e., toward breaking the grip of corporate oligarchs waging culture war against our country and our ways of life. Merely raising taxes on global corporations colluding to punish state legislatures is cause for pious panic from French—who insists absurdly that the oligarchs are engaging only in free speech, so lifting a political finger to challenge their play for mastery of our regime is “right-wing authoritarianism, plain and simple.”
Baffling—although not really—that French and company studiously avoid giving even the slightest offense to the woke left-wing authoritarians who daily tighten their grip on our regime, the better to replace it with one made firmly in their own image. It’s terribly convenient that these white knights pantomime the defense of free speech as they libel voices that speak out against the actual authoritarian takeover of America, happening at breakneck speed in plain sight.
And it’s revealing that, for all their performative signaling of first-amendment virtue, today’s appeasers of woke authoritarianism have nothing at all to say about our sacred constitutional duty to uphold the second half of the amendment, the one prohibiting the federal establishment of a religion.
For, make no mistake, wokeness now nakedly shows all the hallmarks of a religion, and woke elites all the characteristics of a sect bent on establishing it as the beating heart and core enforcement mechanism of their regime.

Power over other people is the goal. Wokeness is the weapon.
Add Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld to this group of losers.
The Gangs all here.
Oh, and Toto too? (aka Egg McMuffin).
“wokeness now nakedly shows all the hallmarks of a religion”
Let’s summarize that statement: the establishment of the State as a religion.
Usually with Dear Leader as God.
Commonly known as “Monarchy”.
I tell ya, ya kins pitch fits about these folks on paper all day long. They enjoy the show light. They smile, laugh, and go on.
They’s the new Vichy Americain.
They were the folks that that l’il liberator shooter thingie was made for!
Yup, I know what i am saying, and i said it!
Unless we get out in the street with greater force we are going to lose. They fear Antifa and blm. They do not fear us. We will need to shift that paradigm.
Controlling the government necessarily involves the exercise of authority. Conservatives are terrified of using power to defeat their enemies because of “our values” which apparently include losing. I’m still searching the historical record for an instance where a group of individuals rationally pursuing their own economic self interests were able to successfully repel the commies (plots of Ayn Rand novels don’t count, no matter how much fun they are to read). David French is probably just a naive and not so bright dupe; Bill Kristol knows exactly what he is doing. He is controlled opposition engaged in subversion. The only problem is that nobody is buying what he’s selling anymore.

This would have been insightful before 2016. Bill Kristol was exposed as a fake at least four years ago. Before that I thought he was just stupid.
