   Dem Governors obviously think that suppressing rather than mobilizing their overwhelmingly anti-fash population is the strategic move, but this is classic Democratic analysis - meaning it's so wrong in so many ways that it beggars belief the people doing it are not, in fact, in a coma.

   Walz should have told Minnesotans to flood the streets peacefully and block all traffic. He should have shut down the city.

   He should have *mobilized* and *shaped* to bring about effective direct action.

     This is, of course, very familiar to anyone who has honestly observed Democrats. They are absolute fools, through and through. Wisdom has no purchase in their souls.

     Walz had better hope that ICE doesn't kill anyone else, because if they do shit will get very real very quickly and literally nobody will listen to him, and his *entire* legacy will be that he lost an election to the destroyer of the United States and then used force to defend that monster's gestapo.

     Instead, he basically threatened his own people with military force if they so much as sneezed in the street without a permit.

     By doing this he only ensured two things: ICE would continue to abuse and possibly kill Minneapolis residents, and the righteous rage building in the hearts of all decent people would have no immediate, constructive outlet.

     What happens to rage deferred? (It explodes)

     Walz thinks he's being prudent, but he's all but ensuring the reaction, when it comes, is 10x.

     Steve's Place repeated this.
