    I pray they do so peacefully, or if they refuse, that we can do what we must without losing our humanity.

    The Soviets are a cautionary tale: they were forced to slay monsters and demons to gain their freedom, but somewhere in the process of slaying monsters they became monsterous themselves. That isn’t a critique of communism, but rather that war can turn men into demons.

      Oh boy, ultra wealthy taking even a 1% cut to their paychecks? They would rather pay that cost to lobbyists to make them even more money. Fuck them, they should burn.
