Yesterday, I got very testy.

I thought about it 🤔 and I understand why.

From the left are coming cries of LOCK HIM UP BRING DOWN THE HAMMER

These are fascist chants and strongman worship.

Rule of law is deliberate and follows procedures.

I see people who should know better chanting LOCK HIM UP.

Two causes:

(1) Trump taught everyone to worship and crave a strongman.

(2) The nature of social media is turning us all into authoritarians.

Never imitate what is ugly.
