Progretheus Unbound
26th July 2022
I have no answer, but a question: What will happen when the Democrats lose control of the Progressive monster they have created?
The monster has several heads, including the pod-people infesting education, Obama’s army in the streets, the union of Party and media, the co-option of Big Tech by Big Government, and now the supremacy of a government-within-a-government, the “intel community.”
We see now the pinnacle of this development — a supine, ridiculous administration feebly figure-headed by a doddering fool, subject to zero ridicule by the state-controlled media, defended by Big Tech censorship (nope, no government censorship here, that’s all private sector, Bub!) — all in the service of a literal cabal, literally behind the scenes, literally insulated from Republic-style representation, accountability, or even identification. The left has won — they are unassailable and, but for the widespread armament of millions of Americans, they would be omnipotent in this human sphere. They control the horizontal and the vertical.
Which famous tragedy is this? At the moment of supreme triumph, the winner’s own nature destroys him. In a Greek tragedy, we might survive. In a Shakespearean tragedy, I suppose we all die, which sounds about right. It is not as though the failure of the Republican will leave the Republicans standing.
