The media loves to report on the subset of the population that enjoys flouting diktats, especially when they are nonsensical (or the opposite of the previous diktat). But even if it were a sensible rule that actually would help the situation there are always people who simply refuse to conform.

What they don’t report is that there’s an even larger subset of the population that is craving the opportunity to conform, and the moral satisfaction of finding dissenters and punishing them.

When the left was in the minority they wrote plays about this (e.g. the Crucible). But now that they are assuming control. dissent is once again unpatriotic.

Which is why I never have bought the 100% democrat vote tallies.

There are always people who will go their own way. Even if you put them under duress they will tell you no. Then they will tell you what you can do with yourself.
