The Order of Civil Society: Shut up!

After at least 1,300 arrests – many of them ostentatiously brutal – on American campuses, the president widely known as Genocide Joe has found some words. In reality, the delay, most likely, simply reflects the time it has taken his handlers to prep the senescent yet resolutely vicious grand old man of corruption. Be that as it may, Joe Biden has addressed the nation.

Most of his statements were unsurprising. In essence, they boil down to something very simple: Feel free – in the land of the free – to protest, as long as you do it in a way that is sure to be easily and conveniently ignored. That is the real message wrapped in all that – frankly offensively silly and petty – talk about “peaceful” protest being fine. This is not, actually, about avoiding violence. It is about avoiding any form of protest that could actually make a difference or even merely be uncomfortable for those in power and their Zionist allies.
