Those who call themselves Progressives believe themselves to be more advanced than the rest of us.

They aren’t.

The process of Civilization has been the process of removing coercive force from the social order.  The American Civil War was essentially an armed struggle between a consensual social order and a coercive social order.

Unfortunately, the struggle isn’t over.

Marxism as an economic doctrine appears to be a last version of a primitive doctrine.  As acquittal has to be possible under The Rule Of Law.  Under The Rule Of The Mob acquittal is impossible.  What Officer Derek Chavin received was essentially a show trial where acquittal wasn’t possible.  Officer Derek Chavin is unfortunately in the hands of primitives.

I once attended a concert at a former single screen movie theater called the Cedar Cultural Center.  The concession stand there was proudly serving Nicaraguan coffee.  The nation of Nicaragua was then under the rule of the Sandinista regime.  The Sandinistas were a Marxist group.  The coffee served at the Cedar Cultural Center was produced with coercive force.

The only way advanced people have to deal with primitive people is with deadly force.  We have no choice but use deadly force on The Marxists.
