Excellent article! Caitlin's fire and passion and her comprehension of what justice really means are so welcome in this increasingly barren and brain-dead society.
As you state here, "that ( the extremists who run the US government) are manufacturing consent for new authoritarian measures just like 9/11 did." I'd just add that these measures are taken from the same book as the what occurred within Nazi Germany. I am reminded that Dementia Joe's new proclamation to go door-to-door to check on everyone's vaccination status is extremely dangerous, and was exactly same course of action that Hitler took with the implementation of his IBM data collection policy. Brown shirts went door-to-door to find, weed-out and collect data on all of the Jews and other undesirable populations, who were then corralled and sent off in box-cars to their deaths. It's only a matter of time before people counted as "anti-vaxers," "republican extremists," "political dissenters," and the list goes on; people who are acutely aware of how deadly these vaccines really are, will be shuffled off to Fema Internment Camps and culled. Far fetched?? I don't think so.
There has been a media frenzy encouraging hatred against Trump since the 2016 election. Like Orwell's 1984, in which the organized "Two Minute Hate" fests occurred with regularity, to perhaps, quell rebellion against the State and instead focus mass outrage against an enemy of the state,
“The horrible thing about the Two Minute Hate was not that one was obliged to act a part, but, on the contrary, that it was impossible to avoid joining in.”
Since Trump was "outed" by Democrats, there has been a lull in the MSM where they seem to have lost their "mojo". So where are we now? The MSM is going into full scale stealth mode, revisiting and milking Trump hate-speech with now escalating urgency, making totally outrageous claims against the "insurrection" and also against Trump supporters as the enemies to Hate. This rising tide of hatred even has my mother, a sweet old-fashioned proper lady, shouting with furvor "death to the Republicans" "They deserve it!" as she is being sucked in to the vortex of this destructive propaganda narrative.
Certainly, See why initials RM identify this piece of nonsense. MY FAVORITE IS "IBM data collection policy. I don't know why people invariable RWingers never use qualifiers. I guess it's because they know they're SO Right.
Bravo, Cailin. "Our" gravest enemies are neither left-wing "communists" and "socialists," nor right-wing "racists," "xenophobes" and "ultra-nationalists." Our gravest enemies are the "centrist," corporate fascists who have fostered the integrated power of corporate bureaucracies over government, intent on totalitarian, authoritarian control of the entire world.
This article and some media assertions to my mind are both Hyperbolic. The word terrorists fit neither well. Insurrectionist/extremist for one. What they represent for governance is more dangerous than 9/11. Capitalist Imperialism, the other. I believe the/her most salient issue which seemed downplayed Because of the word TERRORIST was "They're killing the ecosystem". One short statement. The Real and ever-present danger. throughout our history is, poorly regulated Capitalism. Capitalism by its nature antithetical to Democracy because one is based on social principles (the People) as its foundation. Authoritarianism (Dictator, fascism. communism lend itself better to the Capitalist model. All State-run capitalism all eventually run into the same dilemma destroying its economies through it's inherent lack of democratic principles. What we should adher to is THE FREE ENTERPRISE SYSTEM. The governments' first job is its people. A business's first job is its value to the people. Both these principals have been lost, AGAIN

Dammit, Caitlin. When will you fuck up and write something l disagree with? The suspense is killing me.

Finally. I have just been waiting for someone to say all these words you have said. A bunch of Larpers walked into the Us Capitol that day.
