I mean, it’s not as though editorial-board bloviation actually influences voters.

@timbray It’s the fear of retribution that silences them. The impact on voters isn’t their concern—drawing the ire of an empowered fascist does. And so they do his work for him and muzzle themselves.

@Gte @timbray I truly doubt that. Seriously they're not children, afraid of being called names. What actual harm could befall any of them?

@tomjennings @Gte @timbray I recommend that you obtain a copy of “The Gulag Archipelago” and read it. Best do the obtaining part soon, while you still can. Also, you might want to pay cash for it.
