The process is the punishment. Anyone who thinks they'll only do it to Trump is deluding themselves. You're a Nazi, and Nazis must be destroyed. That is the extent of the reasoning with liberals today.

Which is why I'm in favor of no longer reasoning with them. The opening page of Plato's Republic asks a very important question, how to reason with people who refuse to be reasonable? Plato's answer is that sometimes you can't. Sometimes force is necessary to make people be reasonable. Should we win in November, this is an axiom we should apply to our political opponents. They're certainly doing it to us.

No should we win in November but WHEN we win in November. Listen carefully and you will hear the Pro Communists movement gurgling down the drain. FLUSH

I was around the last time we thought we'd beaten the commies too. That was the Francis Fukuyama End of History period. I suspect utopian thinking is probably endemic in any largely secular society, which is why commies and various other progressive, control-based ideologies never stay dead.

I hope you're right, but postmodernism runs deep in the West today.
