Yes. That’s the very definition of a protection racket.

It’s the people who love to talk about strict types that tend to be the problem

He won’t, at least one person in his administration knows that’s a fast track to civil war. We didn’t love those leaders dearly, but we recognize that they did their duty more or less honorably and patriotically. They are much more useful to Trump as scapegoats than martyrs.

Author is one step away from the realization that Capitalism is the culprit, and technology is just the vector.

Sorry but no? “Voters” means the same thing in both cases, that’s how statistics works.
