re: Is America Devolving into Soft Totalitarianism?

So you're going to answer to liberalism by being as authoritarian as you think they want to be? And somehow you don't like antifa? It's odd to me considering you both share the same logical fallacy

Not saying I'm happy with that option, Eb; just saying that we have choices between the lesser of two evils. Kinda like NOKO, we can either pre-empt with a severe loss of life.....or we can respond AFTER we have been hit. Of course, we have the third option of acquiescing to Un's nuclear blackmail/extortion and send him a check every month.

I'm saying that to the degree that BLM/Antifa becomes violently terrorist/disruptive...to that degree the State will have to respond in order for a basic economy and the necessary flow of essential goods and services to exist.

That aside, given the job loss due to high-tech...there is little doubt that the future *Government* will be involved in allocating basic goods and services. Merit...nws...apparently. In that argument, I argued for basic QUALIFIERS before subsidies are given...lest the responsible folk subsidize immorality and impracticality. Which is essentially suicidal. Which is what we are now witnessing.
