An honest liberal will likely be destroyed for wrong-think

The “Crisis” is Corporate Liberal Authoritarianism




The mob that barged into the Capitol Building accomplished a few things. First, it cemented the electoral demise of Donald Trump, whose termination from the presidency was merely delayed for a few hours by the chaos. Second, it put forward a public perception of Trump’s most ardent supporters as a collection of conspiracy-addled violent loons. Third, it humiliated and discredited Trump, who meekly conceded defeat the following day.

There was no real “coup attempt,” despite incessant politician and media histrionics to that effect. Just a pitiful outburst that was quickly dispersed.

It was clear within about ten minutes of the intrusion that the most severe consequences would stem not from the incident itself, but the deliberately-stoked over-reaction.

The bipartisan political and media class, whether cynically or sincerely, is broadcasting their steadfast conviction that this was something like a “MAGA Terrorist Insurrection” — which is literally how it’s being described on CNN.

Under such allegedly extreme circumstances, of course extreme remedial action is going to be demanded.

Few entities capitulate to up-swells of political hysteria more reliably than the tech companies.

Knowing that there would soon be a DEMOCRAT presidential administration and Congress to appease, they launched what is the most drastic corporate censorship offensive in modern history.

Not only was Trump banished from Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter — the latter being his primary communications platform (for better or worse) — multiple high-profile Trump allies were likewise purged. Steve Bannon was nuked from YouTube.

Trump and his supporters are being neutralized online not because he currently poses any kind of bonafide “threat” to the Republic, but because his enemies are desperate for revenge.

And they have been gifted with a perfect “crisis” that will justify their getting it.

The expulsion of Trump from Twitter was celebrated rapturously by journalists whose conception of the job has markedly shifted away from anything to do with the preservation of protected speech.

Instead, they are far more interested in asserting their political and cultural dominance, punishing those perceived to be undesirables, and functioning almost like a collective Human Resources social pressure department.

Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, and Twitter — collectively more powerful than most nation states — have become willing partners in this endeavor.

In 2016 the US intelligentsia has blamed the rise of Trump on the excessive openness of the internet, and since then have meticulously moved to constrict it.

This ongoing cross-platform purge is the most dramatic step yet in that plan. Trump was never going to usher in anything like “fascism,” no matter what he tweeted or no matter what government building some mob bowled themselves into on his behalf.

However, the specter of “fascism” allegedly embodied by Trump has given his enemies the moral license to bend the rest of society to their corporate liberal authoritarian will.

Who cares? You’re obviously talking to yourself.

The attack on the Capitol...WAS INSURRECTION.

PERIOD.

I N S U R R E C T I O N.

The battle flag of rebels was paraded through the Capitol...something the rebels during the American Civil War were unable to accomplish.

The Capitol was violated by the insurrectionists.

I hope those punished for the deed are punished harshly. And I hope that while they are serving their terms in prison, they hear stories of Trump golfing in Florida...before he joins them behind bars.
