This attitude has not always been the sole province of the the Left, but it is now. There is a prevalent belief among the Left that if you can enforce "good speech" vs what is called "hate speech" then thought control naturally follows, people who believe this are surprised to find it never works that way and are completely mystified as to why it is themselves in the tumbril on the way to the gallows and not the obvious (to them) culprits.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-42230407255196954162018-04-26T20:47:06.789-07:002018-04-26T20:47:06.789-07:00@Deana

This will leave only businesses and rich folk in Cali, and businesses will find it opportune to move out. Leaving only the Rich and the Poor.

It really has no soul, no spirit, little creativity and almost no genuine compassion. I hold Gates and Zuckerberg as insidious bookends of this silicon “revolution.” Like all things, it has limits. It is finite. The “Hi, I’m Mark...” campaign was so robotic, so preposterously staged, as to be laughable. Except it’s not funny. Harnessing Facebook/Google data and money could get Zuckerberg a strong candidacy on paper, but he still has to perform on the human political stage. Hillary Clinton’s emotional disconnection notwithstanding (remember: they ALL supported her), she is infinitely more real than Mark Z. Regardless of the intermediate pain and sadness, I’m confident the absence of soul, spirit, creativity and compassion will be their undoing. And, like the 2016 campaign, I will be enjoying my popcorn watching it all... the demise of these Webmasters of the Universe. Once we’ve databased all of human knowledge, what’s left of humanity? I’d love their answer to that one. Pose that question, and their SATs and Ivy League educations can no longer save them.Ignatius Acton Chesterton OCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18222603717128565302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8078379512095504946.post-52388948949390523852018-04-26T08:31:32.975-07:002018-04-26T08:31:32.975-07:00Whether or not California ever formally secedes fr...Whether or not California ever formally secedes from the Union, it is already effectively doing so in increments. Their latest effort to void the First Amendment is winding its way through the CA state legislature right now.

If California wants to go its own way, National Republicans may just let them, and that could tip the U.S. Presidential election (and Congress) majority vote Republican for the indefinite future. <br />http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5654489/Calexit-advocates-given-green-light-collect-signatures.html With nearly 40 million people, Democratic California is the country's most populous state and the sixth largest economy in the world.<br /><br />Trump's 2016 3 million popular vote loss would become a 1.4 million popular vote win, and a 304-172 EC blowout. We would have a longer land border to build our wall, but a better chance that California might agree to pay for it.Ares Olympushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09726811306826601686noreply@blogger.com
