They state that they represent the will of the people and want to terrorize those they consider 'tyrants.' And yet, they themselves have tried to overturn a legitimate election and more recently enacted sweeping voter suppression laws across several states in order to cement their own hold on power. In addition, the Right and their enablers rush to stake out absolutist positions related to 'religious liberty' or 'freedom of speech' but then cheer on (or directly use) state power to limit just those liberties and freedoms they purport to support. For example, they assert 'liberty' to discriminate against the LGBTQ+ community, and assert 'freedom' to legislate against mask-wearing during a global pandemic or to ban the teaching of history they don't agree with. ...
Over the course of 1792-94, the avatars of the 'will of the people' continued to narrow. It was no longer the legislature as a whole, composed of hundreds of delegates that embodied the 'will of the people,' but it specifically became the Committee of Public Safety led by Robespierre. He vocalized the public will and embodied the public good so that those who disagreed became existential enemies of France herself who needed to be eliminated. Hence, we wind up with the Terror -- denunciations and mass executions of perceived enemies both at home and abroad. The Terror, Furet argued, was only ended when Robespierre lost control of the discourse and no longer embodied the public will, so he himself became a threat and was executed.
Contemporary America hasn't, of course, reached its own Terror. But the parallels between the modes of discourse in the late eighteenth- and early twenty-first centuries are striking. The Right has adopted an authoritarian mode of discourse because they think they embody the will of the people, the nation itself, and so are the only legitimate political actors." https://prof-gabriele.medium.com/on-guillotines-and-the-american-right-de0343b72341 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Committee_of_Public_Safety #WebsiteFiveThirtyEightNateSilver "'But I have a theory about how they missed the Trump train,' he continued. 'They don't hang out with regular folks like us who like to hunt and fish and pray and actually work for a living. Heck, I don't even know that they know how to talk to people from middle America.' #ConspiracyTheoryStolenElectionBigLie #EventRepublicanNationalConventionRNC #IRLPersonalityTelevisionWillieRobertson

There's been a lot of this talk at the RNC, about 'real' Americans and 'regular' Americans and how they're the ones who make America great. ...
These politicians, implicitly and often explicitly, usually have certain people in mind when they refer to 'real Americans.' They often mean white people without college degrees -- the so-called 'white working class.' They usually mean practicing Christians. Their examples usually refer to people in the South or the Midwest -- not East Coast elites or West Coast hippies." https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/only-20-percent-of-voters-are-real-americans/

"When the Prime Minister appointed me as Chairman of our Party in September, I said that I intended to be a strong voice for our conservative values. So, I am writing to you from the United States where I am meeting leading conservative politicians and strategists to see what we can learn from our transatlantic friends to get the Party ready to win the next General Election. But I am also here to strengthen our alliance at a crucial time in conservatives' battle against a pernicious new ideology which is infecting our schools, universities, government bodies, companies and now even the hard sciences. Just yesterday, I spoke to the Heritage Foundation think tank in Washington DC about this. I am of course talking about so-called 'social justice warriors'. Those who claim to be 'woke'. The people who vandalise the Cenotaph and statues of Sir Winston Churchill. Who think that 'free speech is hate speech' and that people are 'privileged' just because of their skin colour. It is tempting to assume that these 'ideas' can be passed off as a fad. I do not see it that way, Alma. I see it as a profoundly dangerous phenomenon. At a time when our attention should be focused on external foes, the country is in danger of entering a period of extreme and nonsensical self-criticism. When we should be showcasing our values and the strength of democratic societies, we look willing to abandon those values. Only the Conservatives can combat this ideology. Just this week, my friend the Education Secretary made clear to teachers that their job is education not indoctrination and set out strict new rules so our children can make their own minds up. But we should not assume the path to victory is an easy one. It is profoundly sad that the modern Labour Party is gripped by this ideology and that is why we need your help to kick it out of our institutions." #AdvocacyUSTheHeritageFoundation #ToponymAmericaNorthUSWashingtonDC #SymbolWarMemorialUKCenotaph #IRLHistoricalFigureWinstonChurchill #CatchcryFreedomOfSpeechFreeSpeech #PhenomnWhitePrivilege #CatchcryIntrospection #OtheringHateSpeech #OrgClassifPPUKConservativesNadhimZahawi #MetaphorWarfareCultureLiberalEducation #TauntIndoctrination #OrgClassifPPUKLabour

Supplementary: #NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianMoiraWeigel "If you say that something is technically correct, you are suggesting that it is wrong - the adverb before 'correct' implies a 'but'. However, to say that a statement is politically correct hints at something more insidious. Namely, that the speaker is acting in bad faith. He or she has ulterior motives, and is hiding the truth in order to advance an agenda or to signal moral superiority. To say that someone is being 'politically correct' discredits them twice. First, they are wrong. Second, and more damningly, they know it." https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/nov/30/political-correctness-how-the-right-invented-phantom-enemy-donald-trump
