In some ways this has been a teachable moment for America.

Being a governor actually is a rather important job.
You need to THINK about who you’re voting into it.

Like here in PA. Tommie the Commie is largely a knee-jerk reaction from people disgusted by a RINO and his massive gas tax increase.

States can’t print money. This is going to be catastrophic for many of them.

I believe ONE of the intents of this lockdown is to condition people to feel the need for a large, authoritarian Government. Especially in the younger generations. They have already been indoctrinated in the Education system and now they are being conditioned to accept Authoritarian RULE.

Two column chart. An excellent suggestion.

A picture is worth a thousand words.

“They have already been indoctrinated in the Education system and now they are being conditioned to accept Authoritarian RULE.”

I agree. Oddly, most of the people I see online, or talk to in person, that are rolling over, embracing this, are boomer aged. The lesson is, make people feel it’s for “the greater good” and they’ll accept nearly anything.

I have less contact with younger people. My fear is, they just accept it, because they’ve been indoctrinated. My hope is, they’re pissed, and at some point, they will rebel.

Time will tell.

“Michiganders Honk for Freedom” — 8pm nightly.

Car horns sounding throughout the state every night at 8pm for a minute, until freedom returns.

Indiana has a Republican Governor with no backbone. We have 92 counties in the state. There should only be about 3 counties on lockdown. Instead the RINO shut down the whole state.

‘They have already been indoctrinated in the Education system and now they are being conditioned to accept Authoritarian RULE.’

this is being exacerbated by the increasing female influencing of public policies...

Here in CT folks know the governor’s job is important.

They also know the Democrats steal the election every four years with ballot stuffing in certain ah urban districts.

And—there is absolutely nothing that can be done about it.

Think of it as kleptocracy in action.
