Excerpt:
"When the Left did not control the universities it protested vehemently for the “free speech” which it now denies anyone who questions the Left, at universities now controlled by the Left. It’s the same – and worse – as regards the “media,” most especially what is styled “social media,” all of it under the dominion of the Left.

Once one understands the Left – which more people than ever are beginning to – one begins to understand there can be no middle ground, because the Left is never satisfied unless the not-Left is ceding ground.

That the Left will not stop until there is no ground left for the not-Left to stand upon.

It is the same attitude as that which resulted, ultimately, in what is referred to by Leftists (and those who don’t realize they have been programmed by Leftists) as the “Civil War” – which of course was no such thing as the states which comprised the Southern Confederacy did not seek to control the federal government but rather, to get away from it. A civil war has always been defined as a war between factions for control of the whole. The English civil war, for example, was a civil war. But Leftists redefined the attempt by the Southern states to secede – and the federal government’s refusal to let them peacefully leave the “union” as a “civil war.” Very much of a piece with the Left’s redefinition of “vaccines,” which were once defined as conferring immunity upon the vaccinated person.

The period we’re living in would likely be familiar to the people who lived during the years just prior to the attempt by the Southern states to secede from a union they no longer wished to be part of, because the union was controlled, politically, by the federal government and the federal government was under the control, electorally, of the Northern states.

It was not slavery, per se, that the Southern states sought to perpetuate by seceding. It was the realization that the Northern states would never rest until the Southern states bent knee to the power of the Northern states, regardless of the wishes of the people of the Southern states to live their own way rather than the Northern way. This included being taxed by the Northern states to finance the ongoing marginalization of the Southern states by the Northern states, a compound-interest version of what Jefferson meant when he described the tyranny of being forced to provide funds for the propagation of ideas the person being made to finance their propagation considers abhorrent.

Well, here we are – again."
