FR has gone “populist” - few posters really want to limit government power any more, they just want to turn things around and use that power to smite their enemies, the way the Left does.

Because those are the rules now and the left is susceptible to ruthlessly exercised power. If these businesses are going to advocate socialism, let’s give it to them good and hard.

Under a capitalist system, the conservatism of Reagan was effective. That is no longer the reality we live in. We need to accept that and adapt.

Name your poison: Do you want high government power, or high oligarch power? They are distinctions without a difference.

“ use that power to smite their enemies, the way the Left does.”

Hence the amount of zotting that goes on around here.
