The Mandatory Norm

I told you long ago... the useful idiots are the first to go... when the rubber is about to truly hit the road....

They always  abolish and destroy the fellow travelers/useful idiots once the hammer is coming down.... Because ... well, they were idiots.. and useful to a point... but now in the way of quic efficient liquidation pogroms...     stupidly sincere, the useful dupes, once they've done they're ignominious dirty work, unwittingly...well,  they are tossed off the side of the ship with little fanfare....... NEXT comes the brutal ones.... straight ticket party liners...psychopaths with badges and in charge . . . who will brook no divergence from the (ever shifting) party line.  No absolutes allowed.  Party is all.  Shifting party line IS ALL..... 

I have been able to predict this . . . because it is all old hat..... Tyranny works the same way every time. Nothing new under the sun. 

Now watch . . . (and take no joy in) as those who sold their souls for baubles and trinkets to be treasonous against truth are swiftly gutted and tossed aside...
Next comes Pol Pot.... Year Zero.... --vicious children, silly women and cowardly men . . . . . . looking the other way while taking part of mayhem . . . as insanity and evil becomes the (mandatory) norm.
