They can gaslight, they can cancel services, they can lie and manipulate, they can brow beat and guilt trip, they can make lists and threaten people, they can even string up a few people to set and example and burn them alive. But when push comes to shove, they can't make us respect their authority. These people are nothing without us. A quick look at the red counties map will show who produces the food, who drills for the oil, who mines the commodities, who delivers the goods to market, and who works in the factories. We are the hosts, and they are the leeches. We know it, they know it, in the end they can do nothing without our compliance. Don't ever let them forget that.
