This is a hell of a piece that goes to how weaponized our “democracy” has become and why it’s critical that we build systems of self-sufficiency outside of the State.
“The Democratic Party’s political engineers first sensed the centrality of [Brides of the State (BOTS)] to the Party’s power base during Barack Obama’s re-election campaign in 2012. The Obama campaign then duly rolled out a storybook ad called ‘the Life of Julia’, which explained how Obama’s policies, from Head Start to Obamacare to contraception coverage to Medicare reform, would care for Julia from graduation through motherhood and finally to the grave without her needing to form a human relationship with anyone outside the government.”
“That BOTS are both unhappy and dependent is what makes them a uniquely valuable energy source for the party.”
