No speculation is needed. Those who wield power are demanding it. The only question is how much opposition they will encounter.
The last two weeks have ushered in a wave of new domestic police powers and rhetoric in the name of fighting “terrorism” that are carbon copies of many of the worst excesses of the first War on Terror that began nearly twenty years ago. This trend shows no sign of receding as we move farther from the January 6 Capitol riot. The opposite is true: it is intensifying.
We have witnessed an orgy of censorship from Silicon Valley monopolies [govt subsidized] with calls for far more aggressive speech policing, a visibly militarized Washington, D.C. featuring a non-ironically named “Green Zone,” vows from the incoming president and his key allies for a new anti-domestic terrorism bill, and frequent accusations of “sedition,” “treason,” and “terrorism” against members of Congress and citizens. [Purges]
This is all driven by a radical expansion of the meaning of “incitement to violence.” It is accompanied by viral-on-social-media pleas that one work with the FBI to turn in one’s fellow citizens (See Something, Say Something!) and demands for a new system of domestic surveillance.
Beware, if we have snitches in this forum already, they are probably still here and will turn you in—not just to a mod but to the Thought Police.
Now that the Soviet Union has fallen—America is next. [Reply]
I pledge to be a compliant servant for the ruling party and the supreme leader.
I disavow any allegiance to any other leader, party or god that I have supported before.
I swear this is not done under duress.
