When the dictatorship is formally in place, and it is coming, then the serious killing will start. Totalist regimes ALL start with killing off as many of the “unreliables” as they can identify and their associates.
Only if they can get their weapons first. As long as the weapons are floating around, the price they would pay is too terrible to envision. Which is why they kow-tow to the Muslim extremists.
In reviewing the communist past, we find that
the criminal element was never considered as
politically “unreliable” only intellectuals
and those who opposed or could oppose their agenda.
