Proscription actually sounds pretty good, it would be open hunting season on billionaires. A violent orgy of economic redistribution. I would love to see the heads of prominent politicians and celebrities displayed in the Forum.

Unfortunately that’s not what we’re seeing here. This isn’t proscription behavior, this is Gestapo behavior.

the fantasy of justice

I remember having similar fantasies during the W. Bush administration. “Surely, when Democrats get into power these egregious war criminals will face justice in the courts!”

Being a lesser evil voter in this country is probably the logical choice, but it is also signing up for a lifetime supply of “fell for it again” awards.

Your comparison to the brownshirts is correct- most rank and file brownshirts were never prosecuted.
