    Meh. Being insulted by a coward is the equivalent of a hippy threatening to punch me in my halo.

    You’re already in a dictatorship. Wake up.

      Yeah, we’ve already fallen off the cliff. Might as well throw away our parachute and survival equipment. We’re gonna die anyways! /s

      Giving the dictator what he wants isn’t a good idea. All it does is normalize his power and legitimize his authority. He’s a paper dictator, at best, and needs to stay that way. Every resistance from every source is needed for a long as possible.

      Calling me a coward while saying that news orgs should face “consequences” so they resist the dictator is hilarious.
