ll I know is that if we can't provoke the authoritarian left to cause enough economic damage to send in the Gestapo to exterminate them, we can get the same results by trickery and by stoking up just such fears. Too bad a rational left can't get those idiots under control before conflict between the authoritarian left and right destroy us all. Too bad we because such an international military threat the whole rest of the world had to sit down to figure out how to trigger our own self destruction. I think it used to be better when we showed some promise as being the best hope for humanity. Maybe we should get back to making that job one so the rest of the world can focus on their own governments for a change.
