Are They Coming For You ???

Commentary from John Derbyshire:

Justice in the U.S.A. is in serious trouble. It has been politicized. Our Ruling Class has been seized by an ideology: the one loosely called “Wokeness,” although as a longtime fan of Professor Paul Gottfried, I prefer “Cultural Marxism.” This ideology has many facets, but its most central characteristics are 1) deep hostility to the founding stock of the U.S.A. ... and 2) fierce intolerance of all dissent.

In the matter of justice, the effect of that ideology has been to give us a two-tiered system, a shameful double standard. Anarchist mobs who burned, looted, and murdered their way through our cities last year have been smiled on by the courts. The motley protestors who entered the Capitol on January 6th, by contrast, are being hunted down and crushed like bugs: no bail, no celebrity support, no GoFundMe pages, no allowance for personal circumstances.

Are you happy now?

To paraphrase Martin Niemöller:

First they came for the professors, and I did not speak out —

     Because I was not a professor.

Then they came for the Jan. 6 insurrectionists, and I did not speak out —

     Because I was not an insurrectionist.

Then they came for the conservatives, and I did not speak out —

     Because I was not a conservative.

Then they came for me — and there was no one left to speak for me.

We're at stage 3 of this witch hunt. How much further do you want it to go?
