I remember an elementary school science experiment we did, to demonstrate that liquids are not compressible. Take a sink filled with water and punch an object into the water. Makes a big mess, water goes everywhere. Now slowly insert the object into the water. No mess at all.
This is what the Left has learned. The various Marxist terrorists and revolutionaries throughout the 20th Century generally only succeeded in mess making. For their grand prize, America, they learned they would have to be patient and slowly immerse themselves and their ideology into the water of the culture. They've pretty much finished. They definitely won't be gotten rid of by any peaceful means, that's for sure.
The thing that bugs me most are the number of people who seem to think anything is legitimate as long as "people voted for (them)". Well, first of all I don't trust the accuracy of our electoral system one bit, second of all even if it was accurate the fundamental liberty of the people is not subject to being overruled by ballot. Not by 51% and not by 99%. But we have people who think it is overwrought bombast to speak of incipient tyranny so long as "people voted for it".
I think it's safe to say the rest of our lives are going to be in very messy times.
