Stalin justified the brutal policy using the banner, enemy of the people, and that included

It's not violent, but it is intense.

If you oppose the far left, that movement will try to hurt you.

This week, a senior editor at the Philadelphia Inquirer newspaper was fired after leftist

reporters protested a story about violence at anti-cop demonstrations.

Another editor at the New York Times forced out for publishing an op-ed from Republican

Senator Tom Cotton that supported using the military to control riots.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry, a very left-wing guy, was publicly shamed by Black Lives Matter

after he refused to back the defund the police movement.

Americans now pretend that radical protesters taking part in anti-cop demonstrations pose

no threat while millions of Americans don't believe that.

go to church because of COVID.
