I speak as a democratic socialist : the January 6 hearings in Congress reminded me- and socialists like me- of the infamous Moscow Trials of the 1930s. The WOKE Democrats are more and more in style, if not in economics, curiously STALINIZED . For decades they have repudiated the FREE SPEECH , FREE THOUGHT tradition of Western Civilization. And they show a truly ferocious hostility to traditional Christianity and religious freedom in the USA.
