A fascinating vid, and thanks for posting. Shorn of expletives, which frankly I sort of enjoyed, the fellow's message was very simple: (1) the Left has stopped listening and persuading and gone to simple force, and (2) it isn't his conception of the Left anymore, but something rather stunted and impotent, that (3) loses, and deserves to.

It is a bit curious. In the past, the Left has had to wait until it actually achieved a monopoly on power before it turns totalitarian; here the totalitarian came first and instead of being clamped onto an unresisting public, has encountered vigorous and successful resistance. The speaker seems as frustrated as anyone at the shutdown of political discourse by political correctness. Because when brute force fails and reason has been discarded, you have nothing.

I’ve watched it half a dozen times. We should all be damned glad that this guy wasn’t advising Hillary.

Thanks for your analysis. (I’ll skip watching it.)

The Left moved before they got the Enabling Act going.
