In The Authoritarian Moment, Ben Shapiro warns of the rise of censorship, voter fraud, fake news, and other leftist tactics for seizing control. According to Shapiro, these authoritarian abuses have been especially prevalent since the start of Obama's second term, because it was in his second presidential campaign that Obama made the fateful decision to radicalize the Democrat party and tie its future to a coalition of so-called marginalized or minority groups.
Shapiro prefers the term "authoritarian," but he might just as well have used totalitarian, dictatorial, fascist, Stalinist, or any number of other terms. It is clear that something very disturbing is afoot in America that we have not seen in the past, and that the progressive left, intent on exercising and holding on to power, is behind it.
It is also clear from Shapiro's analysis that progressives are the enemies of ordinary Americans and that progressive values are opposed in every way to the thinking of decent, hardworking Americans who love family, country, and God. These decent citizens are hated by the left simply because they are decent and refuse to participate in the anti-capitalist, anti-democratic, and anti-white woke culture.
Unfortunately, progressives have had the advantage. They are fervent, almost religious (or pseudo-religious) in their commitment to change. They comprise a small, cohesive group similar to the Bolsheviks in revolutionary Russia, and, like those revolutionaries, they believe that the righteousness of their cause justifies any sort of behavior ("by any means necessary," as they say). And, because they despise Middle America and its citizenry, they are motivated by the strongest of emotions: hate.
Nothing like this can be said of ordinary Americans, who still believe in fair play and following the law, and that is why so many key institutions have fallen into the hands of progressives,

COVID has really exposed who the authoritarians are. Everyone should note and remember who they are.
And no one mentions what I feel is a very effective tactic, Eric Holder’s redistricting scheme.
Don’t be surprised when the Dems keep the house.

It is, in no small part, because of this boy blunder and his anti-trump ilk we are in this mess. Worthless navel gazer that excels at telling everyone else how bad things are AFTER the fact. When it matters, his and his kind are nowhere to be found on the front line.
The Left always moves toward authoritarianism for the simple reason that their ideas don’t ever have popular support over time. What has ever stopped them? Is there a single historical example of them being stopped by individuals who are rationally pursuing their own economic self interest? Ayn Rand novels not included. The Right actually often is a “reactionary” movement in a literal sense. If someone throws a punch at you, blocking and hitting back is reactionary, even at the cultural level.
We lost the Republic the moment ALL of our elected AND appointed abrogated the Constitution by swearing in the Kenyan from Indonesia.
“Unfortunately, progressives have had the advantage.”
The progressive blunders are legendary and have resulted in massive defeats for leftists.
On May 30, 2020, Mayor Groot of Chicago sent her progressive BLM “army” into Mexican areas to attack neighborhoods and businesses. The Mexicans set up barricades on the roads and manned them with individuals carrying weapons. The Mexicans beat the crap out of her BLM racists and chased them back to their Chicago ghettos. The Mexicans were cheered on and backed by the police.
The attack created a tidal wave of opposition to the rat party across the country by Mexicans. As a consequence of that attack, the Mexicans are about to drive out the fat, white BLM racists in LA county. LA will fall to the Mexicans in less than two years.
COVID Elite Ruler Thuggery has really exposed, who are the Dictatorial Elites in America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK and most of Europe!
These Covid Dictatorial Elites have ruled by force and edicts, not the law, nor for our benefit!
Since Day 1 of the Covid wars, they have used and still use their fake science to control our lives 24/7 for their benefit, not to protect us!

The decline began with our transition, from a federal republic to a democratic republic, in 1913 with the 17th Amendment.
