Peter Thiel's CPAC (the tea party convention/the new GOP) had a banner that said: "We are domestic terrorists" another banner said: "You're Next: The Rise of the Democrat Gulag."[1] The fact that the head of a private intelligence company is spear heading the movement that said: "we are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless if the left allows it to be." [2] is frightening. The head of the Office of Budget and Management said "“We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,” he said. “When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains. We want their funding to be shut down so that the EPA can't do all of the rules against our energy industry because they have no bandwidth financially to do so."[3] What is extra frightening is that we are already seeing an American take on a Gulag.[4] You can get picked up off the street without due process and be sent to a judicial black hole.[5] Historians who study fascism or Russian/eastern European history are fleeing the country. [6] I feel terror. I really do. Terror is understanding that you are no longer governed by predictable law, but by the state of nature, where power and power alone will resolve conflict and disputes. Fear becomes the chains of slavery. [1] https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cpac-banner-domestic-terrorists/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/cpac-banner-domestic-terro...

A small army of brave Hollywood stars could defuse his widdle terrorism. But _there's_ no one with their own guts so his kind will win. God damn Clooney and his Bene Gesserit. > no longer governed by predictable law, but by the state of nature, where power and power alone will resolve conflict and disputes It's not really power though when you fubar'ed and brainwashed tons of children and teens and then hook into the grown-up back doors and cracks, psycho-social biases, cognitive fallacies, primed emotions and anchored polarizations over and over and over and over later on ... it's a courtesy of all those "concerned burners" ... ... so do not fear, human, dance into the gentle twilight edging down and up into the rumbling night ...
