Ask yourself what is the common thread among following four individuals:
- Guido Van Rossum (Creator of Python programming language, Former BDFL)
- Richard Stallman (Free Software Advocate, recently sacked by MIT)
- Linus Torvalds (Creator of Linux operating system, now on a self-induced "vacation")
- Donald Trump (Current POTUS, about to be purged by the DC Club)
If you ponder the question long enough, you'll find the answers:
- All are white men, cisgenders (very soft target for a particular ideologically powered lobby).
- All had hard-earned reputation and respect in their field to lose (thus making them easy targets for the mainstream media which thrives on aggravating its audience's political correctness and biases).
- They were all leaders in their field representing patriarchy (yet another profile which another kind of audience relishes devouring like hungry sharks - the feminists).
- They never indulged in any kind of woke political correctness which pleases the liberal lobby (which would have made it a lot more difficult to remove them).
Thus, there was more than one reason to purge them and they were very easy targets. Those staying in the US and meet the above profile who think that they can't be targeted because they are "too small" or they can get away by "pleasing" the liberal lobby or somehow being one of them, etc. are just deluding themselves! The purge isn't going to stop, its only going to increase more and more in future. This isn't a machine that stops firing because it has already reached a good body count - in fact, that aggravates the machine to kill even more!
