You know...
it wasn't always like this.

Not very long ago, just before your time...
Right before the towers fell, circa '99...

The craziest part is that democrats haven't been a majority "left" in who knows how long. Aside from AOC and Bernie, the Democratic reps has voted Center at best and right leaning many times, some even drifting into right-aligned policies in specific instances

Leftist representation is nonexistent.

Keep your fellow human responsible for their actions, reprehensible or otherwise. People that know their actions have consequences may choose a different path today... but all they need to resume acting on their dark and deplorable aspirations is lack of accountability. Never give them a mask. 6/6

And when individual responsibility for one's actions are stripped away... the very real and very terrifying side of many comes out. A truth we wish not to face. The truth being that the only thing preventing people from killing, and worse, people they disagree with, is a mask. 5/

When the Stormtroopers, the feared enforcers, showed up, they acted with efficiency and incredible ruthlessness. And why wouldn't they? No one could know who committed the heinous acts while wearing the helmet. Their individual identity was wiped away by the Empire. Consumed by the collective. 4/

But aside from functional differences (or, perhaps, in line with them) one of the biggest things their armor did was mask their face and voice. They became a part of the collective action, the collective attrocities, of the Imperial regime. They had no individual action or culpability. 3/

The Imperial Stormtroopers of the Empire had many functions in their iconic white armor. Temperature regulation, airborne toxin filtration, protection against civilian-legal blasters. That last part is actually true. Their armor was strong enough to protect their lives from most weapons. 2/
