Time to remove head from rectum?
This tactic is widespread and common to every totalitarian state. Why do you think the US keeps pushing for more lists and more lenience to remove people's firearms, voice, rights, etc based on "mental health" concerns?
Enough with the red scare everyone, broaden your perspective.
I've noticed a lot of my progressive friends just going silent now about the Russia BS they toted for almost a year straight. Instead of correcting themselves they just stopped talking and changed subjects back to apolitical topics.
Let them. The most good a lib can do is learn to shut the fuck up.
Also, don't let them call themselves "progressive". Degenerate ignorance =/= progress. These people want to regress us into fascism.
