The Progressive Purge Begins

Progressives have always loved a good purge. Whether it was the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, North Korea, China or anywhere else, when people step out of line, through public actions or private words, they mysteriously disappear. Democrats aren’t to that point, at least not yet, but they’re well on their way and things are going to get a lot worse very quickly the further down this road they go.
The digital purge started shortly after idiots stormed the Capitol, but it was planned for a long time. The left spent the middle of the last century burning books, now they’re deleting social media accounts, but the objective is the same: eliminate thought they do not like.
The average Democrat doesn’t see it as that and can’t fathom the idea that they’re embracing fascism. All they see is a people they’ve been convinced are evil being removed from the digital world in the name of tolerance. The irony is lost on them.
So is the danger.
Banning Donald Trump and Trump supporters from the digital world is not an end step; it’s the beginning. People are being fired from their jobs not for storming the Capitol, but for attending the rally on the mall in support of the president. Hundreds of thousands went to a peaceful rally, after which a few thousand did some wildly stupid and dangerous things. It’s not enough that the people who actually did those things be held accountable (which they should be), anyone who was in the area must be destroyed too.
It’s a feeding frenzy; bloodlust built up by 4 years of being told by so-called journalists and elected officials that Donald Trump is Hitler. And when you’re going after Hitler, everything is justified.
