We’ve always worried, we Americans, about authoritarianism stemming from our Government even as we thought that our system of elected Representatives was a check on that.
However, it is beyond doubt that many of our “co-citizens” have been caught up in the American version of Mao’s Cultural Revolution.
Ben Shapiro, host of “The Ben Shapiro Show” and editor emeritus of The Daily Wire, is the leading the charge against authoritarianism. His new book “The Authoritarian Moment: How the Left Weaponized America’s Institutions Against Dissent” is already a No. 1 bestseller after debuting last week.
“I think that there’s two types of authoritarianism when we think about it. One is a sort of political authoritarianism in which the government continues to exert more and more power in the name of ‘doing good.’
And then the other sort of authoritarianism, which is unique to our moment a little bit, is the authoritarianism of the culture. The militarization of private institutions on behalf of one particular point of view, and then universally over time. And that one, I will say, is something kind of new.
-Ben Shapiro (“The Authoritarian Moment: How the Left Weaponized America’s Institutions Against Dissent”)
The Left has become militant not just in their disregard for the idea that the Government was to leave us alone (and have invaded it and truly has become the Party of Government).

The “intellectual” foundation laid down by the Frankfurt School, Alinsky, Mancuse, and Gramsci has shown how Marxism should take over the culture (media, education, et al) as well.
One hand reinforcing the other.
While the Left calls US fascists, we see the projection has become reality. We have become encircled.
It is now time for us to say “Nuts”
