The horror of Communism, Stalinism, is not that bad people do bad things — they always do. It’s that good people do horrible things thinking they are doing something great.

Hope flits about never-wearying wings;
Profit to some, to some light loves she brings,
But no man knoweth how her gifts may turn,
Till 'neath his feet the treacherous ashes burn.
Sure 'twas a sage inspired that spake this word;If evil good appearAnd brief the respite from her flaming sword.
To any, Fate is near;
Sophocles, "Antigone"

Yes, Darth Bacon, and we're as thankful as you must be that Trump was defeated last November, and we now have a real POTUS in Joe Biden.
We certainly DID get rid of the idiot!
Meh. We traded a mealymouthed Democrat for one that stutters.
