Common practice in the old USSR. You must be nuts if you object to the Worker’s Paradise.
“Common practice in the old USSR. You must be nuts if you object to the Workers Paradise.”
Precisely. That’s a common fixture of progressive regimes the world over, and throughout history. Dissent is criminalized, and when the elites realize that approach has diminishing returns, they paint opposition as a mental illness.
It does not take a significant leap of rationale for a leftist to justify frog-marching the opposition off to the asylums and the reeducation camps. We already have progressives here in the west trying to reclassify skepticism of the messianic government into a mental illness, it doesn’t take much more than that for the leftists to start building camps.
