| With Joe Biden in the White House, the Borg have come to America |

| [American Thinker] Those who remember Star Trek: The Next Generation from the 1980s also remember Captain Picard's epic turn as Locutus of Borg. The once strong, independent captain had been assimilated into the totalitarian Borg. American politics is beginning to feel remarkably Borg-like in the age of Biden. There was a theme running just below the surface of all the mainstream media talking points this past week. They were telling us, not in so many words, that "resistance is futile." Thousands of troops in the capital served to emphasize the point. Leftists are the Borg. They are the embodiment of the evil sci-fi collectivist menace. They want us to know they will trample on our rights and our lives, if necessary, to usher in the new America. They have made great strides toward silencing all those who would disagree with them and now they want to begin the campaign to "reprogram" and assimilate us into the collective. To be a leftist, you must conform absolutely to leftist orthodoxy. You must force a system of beliefs on those who profess to think otherwise, through social pressure, financial pressure, threats, intimidation, and violence. No debate is necessary. Just ask the few Democrats who have had the courage to confront the left. Leftism's nature is anti-American because its core tenets are antithetical to the Constitution and, especially, the Bill of Rights. Small wonder that leftists seem to hate their country and want to change it into something else. Many conservative voices are being silenced or censored with little recourse or pushback. It's hard to believe that this is happening right in front of our eyes. The First Amendment is under assault, and the rest of the Bill of Rights won't be far behind. Joe Biden has made it clear that he wants to destroy the Second Amendment, and Beto O'Rourke stands ready to do the job. |
