PP is thoroughly disowned by RNC. Medved and Ben Sasse were just talking about them and antifa as "reilly weird", highlighting to larger points which Sasse discusses in his book "Them: Why We Hate Each Other--and How to Heal", which discusses the polarization in age of social media, loneliness epidemic, propensity to take sides (D or R) to be on a team for this sense of community ("it doesn't work that way"), the 50% reduction of friends on average since 1990 amidst the general population, the trend toward robots as supposedly "viable" human replacements, etc.
"Win the battle, lose the war" seems the term of the day for both sides, to what end, what positive change do they seek, what can be accomplished by tit for tat assaults ?

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
