      Funny how little room for nuance or gray area we allow with the hindsight of history. We don’t look back at the civil rights movement and say “Yeah but George Wallace wanted lower taxes.” We don’t look at the rise of Nazism and say “Sure but Hitler had legit economic grievances.”

      We tell ourselves that if we had lived in the 60s we would have marched with King and had zero tolerance for Jim Crow, come what may. We fantasize about how if we were in Germany in the 40s we would’ve fought and heroically died rather than be complicit in the Holocaust.

      We agree that such moments in history require absolute moral clarity about which side is good and which is evil, who is right and who is wrong. We do not tolerate nuance in answering such questions. We rightly look at those who compromised with evil as being complicit in evil.

          And yet here we are living through precisely such a moment. A moment requiring absolute moral clarity. A moment in which good and evil, right and wrong, are staring us in the face, begging us to choose. Instead we argue about “civility” and “economic anxiety” and “both sides.”

          When this moment in history passes and the cancer of Trumpism is finally wiped away, will you look your kids in the eyes and say “Yeah, but lower taxes; Sure, but economic anxiety”? There are only two sides here. I know which side I’m on and what I’m willing to suffer. Do you?

          We are right, you are wrong. You are complicit in evil. You are part of the force actively trying to end Western Civilization as we know it. You are a vial parasite and people with your views are unacceptable in Western society.

          The left proves over and over they are the epitome of violence, bullying and lies. What is so good about them to you? Tell.
