This is what happens when socialist radicals break down the old order
so they can build a new one. They open the door for their opponents
to do the same.
-G. Zinoviev


There was a story told, of the Zek (Soviet Slang for prisoner)
talking with the guard. (After a few years, you get to know each
other.) And the guard asks him what he did, and the Zek says "I did
nothing! Nothing I tell you." And the guard then asks, "So what did
you get?" And the Zek says "a twenty fiver." The guard replies "You
lie! you don't get 25 for nothing, For nothing you get at most a
tenner!"

The problem I see coming, are those who are on the margins, deep
in the "80% who ask 'what happened?'", who are going to get caught up
in the "rectification". E.g., the small business owners in Ferguson.
Or Baltimore. Or wherever the Al Sharpton anti-truth race bating
spectacle goes next.
