::Meloni is unfortunately entangled with controversies over neofascism, and given her questionable history and unclear alleged repudiation of past terrible statements (please do correct me if her more recent assertions are contrary to my summary), it's better to take her credentials with a grain of salt for the time being.

::D'Souza is a nice right-wing commentator, though at this point, his eager support for populist excesses may be more grounded in zealousness than wisdom. Abbott, maybe, since his tenure seems grounded in toughness, though it's debatable whether the strength of his gubernatorial decisions this year was due to political expediency as he faced a primary challenge from [[Allen West]] (that said, I'm only pointing this out because of ''possible'' reasons to doubt his authenticity based off what I heard earlier this year, since I myself didn't closely analyze his tenure nearly enough). —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|^{(Exodus 23:2)}]]''''' Thursday, 15:39, December 22, 2022 (EST)

:::Comment on DC political prisoners: there has been enough reporting on this to substantiate that virtually all were Capitol tourists, with a few being framed up on bogus charges because of their affiliation with a patriotic veterans group (in fact, there may have been racist motivations behind the prosecution of a black Cuban, Enrique Torrio, who we documented being banned by [[Twitter]]/[[FBI]] a few years ago when he was running for Congress. The few "violent criminals" as alleged, such as the alleged "Qanon Shaman" who really is an environmental activist, have been prosecuted already.  The remainder sing the National Anthem nightly and this is an opportunity to remind the world they have not been forgotten.

::The convoy protest crowd? I'm going to say no. I'm personally inclined to contend that, while the majority of it was peaceful and grounded in a reasonable reaction against Trudeau parafascism, there were nonetheless fringe extremists that had too much of a presence in the crowd and I'm not fully sure how much they were fully repudiated on the spot by the majority of presumed everyday, decent people. My larger concern deals with the theme of worldwide populist revolt against government that's turning towards a zealous, and often militant direction, which eerily parallels, if not actually is the manifestation of [https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Thessalonians%202&version=ESV what's warned in 2 Thessalonians]:

{{cquote|Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come. Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God. Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.|||2 Thessalonians 2:1–7}}
