The Shadow Revolution of living in the shadows. You’d think 75 million people would have some positive effect but all it did was cause the Elites to accelerate the timetable.
yeah, that's Canada

most people here are not Woke, it's only a tiny cabal of academic elites who are Woke

but there is no majority rule, Canada is ruled by the elites in an asymmetrical dictatorship

they control the media, they control the political parties

anybody who does not adhere to the media party line, simply is not allowed to run for office

the elites are the gate keepers, they control all the access points

they simply do not allow an opposition, by simply not allowing those people to be politicians at all

Never thought I’d be the one saying this, but you guys are being SIFCLIF doomers.
The dominant culture in America is not liberal commie. Don’t believe the hype.

Canadians and Portlandians are not a representative sample of America.
SJWs are a natural consequence of corporatism.

it's like my wife has a corporate counterpart at the company offices in Shanghai, her name is "Wendy"

Wendy is not unhappy, Wendy enjoys life, she never complains about China, she likes Xi Jinping

if anything, Wendy feels sorry for us, practically pities us

this whole democracy thing, Wendy just sees that as a burden,

if we didn't have that, we'd be much happier in her opinion

I've said this before. Being the majority in terms of numbers does not matter. Their numbers are located in the positions of power. The government, courts, schools, and media.

A boot does not care how many ants there are.

My wife has a little bit of that in her too, she wants to participate in democracy, but at times she struggles to understand what it means to be free. It is hard for people who grew up during a prosperous time in China, and have never known anything else. Generally, these people never really stepped out of line, so they do not truly understand how little freedom they actually have.

Life is pretty great, when you don’t have to think about it.

Liberty is despised in the rest of the world, and now in the U.S.

I don't know if my realizing how little freedom I actually have makes much of a difference

in terms of stepping out of line, the masses tend to want step towards even more crazy authoritarian paradigms

if you incited people to step out of line, they'd demand more communism not less

it's like right now I am ruled by communists, but if I overthrew them, I would end up ruled by Communists

Authoritarianism is the natural state: liberty is rising above that baseline, which is why it must be taught
