>>we have a very serious existential problem on our hands at this point.<<
I don’t think the Union is worth saving, I have no desire to live in a country with these Josef Mengele wannabes.
It’s worth saving in that every last one of them needs to be terminated in an epic fashion that will not soon be forgotten.
But yeah, beyond that, it’s really not worth it, nor is it savable.
Lesson learned, if you are going to create a free country, do not create the mechanisms that the Left will corrupt in order to control you.
But if you then do that anyway, make sure you teach your children the value and cost of freedom, otherwise the Left will teach them about control and fascism.
Government and freedom cannot coexist, and neither can freedom exist with communist indoctrinated children, because we will be gone soon enough, and they will remain.
Game over.
