AOC & Co. s loathsome plan to keep lists of pro-Trumpies
In Gilbert and Sullivan s The Mikado, a man named Ko-Ko appointed to the job of Lord High Executioner tries to figure out whom he should have killed. There will be, he says, no difficulty in finding plenty of people whose loss will be a distinct gain to society at large. And then he reveals that he has a little list a list of society offenders . . . who never would be missed!
Ko-Ko s example is being followed exactly by a group of petty and loathsome enforcers of pious attitudinal orthodoxy who have appointed themselves to the collective post of Lord High Career Executioner in post-Trump America.
They literally talk about the lists they are making of people who have committed the grievous evil of working for the administration they hated, with the stated goal of ensuring such people don t find employment afterward.
Last week, there arose something that calls itself the Trump Accountability Project. Its founding manifesto contains these words: We should welcome in our fellow Americans with whom we differ politically. But those who took a paycheck from the Trump administration should not profit from their efforts to tear our democracy apart.
