Socialism, by its nature, cannot accept dissent in any form, and must always squash objections. It does this first by marginalization and ridicule, and if that fails, by brute force.
American is currently in the first stage: Those who, in one way or another, can be identified with “red state” culture are ridiculed as ignorant, racist, hate-filled, inbred, uneducated, and dangerously violent. Americans who voice conservative opinions are shouted down and denigrated, and the PC culture ensures social censorship of conservative ideas.
To the extent that a sizeable group of anti-socialists still remains, force will have to be the next step that the socialists take to silence their critics.

Pray VDH is right about this, because this campaign to vilify and dispirit any dissent is coordinated from the White House, Unions, and all of the media.

Dissent is patriotic.
