"I think the gravest mistake a republic can make is to assume that the Stalins, Hitlers, Pol Pots, and Maos are anomalous figures of history. We like to think that they are rare examples of deranged individuals that happened to seize power when the opportunity came to them.
But look at what progressives actually believe. Look at what that author from the HuffPost openly advocates and the commentariat of that site overwhelmingly supports: the arrest and imprisonment of their political enemies for no reason other than using their Constitutional authority to impede progress.
Look at that and believe that somewhere in the lunatic asylum that is the Daily Kos, AlterNet, and Salon are people bold enough and fanatical enough to destroy all those who stand in the way of their utopia. There are Maos and Stalins and Pol Pots in this country today and God help us if they ever gain control of the state."
"Privately (and as a former journalist in a liberal town, I have interviewed many) they will tell you that they'd like to fucking kill their enemy. Literally. With guns and shit.
None of this is news. Anyone that's willing to put a gun to your head and take your money "for the common good" is more than willing to kill you for it.
Quite literally the only reason we aren't dead for our money already is because they think they can get more money out of us being alive."
