And big I liberal Individualism will do nothing but allow those who want power and don’t represent your values to gain power. It’s already difficult enough to get people who represent your values into power or not be betrayed by those who claim to represent your values once they do gain power.
Ocasio-Cortez is a great example of that difficulty. She talked the talk on leftist populism and even stated she would rather be a one term candidate and fight for her constituents than worry about getting reelected. Then suddenly once she has power she does a heel-turn and now it’s about getting reelected so she can do something “eventually” while she’s enjoying elite healthcare, almost 4x median income, and proximity to social and economic elites.
It’s already happening. I’m taking part in it by having less buying power than I did even two years ago, paying $5 a gallon for gas, and watching the GAE send billions of dollars to Ukraine while there are baby formula shortages in the US.
Liberal political elites are already openly calling for violence against “Conservative” elites who step out of line and represent their constituency. It’s only a matter of time until they just start arresting them en masse. The frontier has already come home. We aren’t going to waste all that experience from the GWOT as the GAE retracts back to the imperial core; it will continue to be put to work against political dissidents.
Are you aware of other goods currently experiencing supply chain issues?
Certainly.
Do you see yourself as a political dissident?
I don’t think Democracy has inherent value. I actually think what we call “democracy” has had a detrimental effect on our society and the world more generally.
Have you ever engage in political violence or intimidation towards your “enemies”?
I would never do anything illegal my brother in Christ. I always stick strictly to the law. And you will never hear or see me say or write any differently. Back the blue. Law & Order etc.
State sanctioned political violence is more your thing?
Absolutely. I support Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer when he calls for SCOTUS Justices to feel the wrath of the people for unpopular court decisions which leads to a man driving from California to Maryland to assassinate Brett Kavanaugh. But that’s not a crime, otherwise Schumer would have been arrested.
