As we watch Governor Piglet – who staged a lockdown, seized 18 months of emergency power for a 3 month emergency, started a snitch line and a “badthink” database and has spent seven years relentlessly dividing Minnesotans under the slogan “One People, One State, One Minnesota [1] – flail around at having called half of his state’s people “Nazis” and “Fascists”, I urge you to take a moment for introspection about some basic logic and, yes, morality.<\/p>\n

Here’s the thing; the burden of proof is on you to prove someone is\u00a0<\/em>a “Nazi” or “fascist”, with some sort of evidence.\u00a0 It is not on your target – we’re not “victims” – to prove they are not.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Otherwise, you’re just a mud-slinging coward.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That is all.\u00a0<\/p>\n

[1] OK, that wasn’t literally the slogan.\u00a0 But nobody who studied European totalitarianism in the 20th century didn’t think that when they first heard the slogan “One Minnesota”.\u00a0 I guarantee it.\u00a0 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
