That Political Pendulum

Isn’t it odd how political people seem to always believe the choice is always (and only) between fascism and socialism. When one is in power, they flock to the other. If it’s not one, then to them it has to be the other.

They don’t see the other options, such as not violating others.

Maybe because that particular choice doesn’t empower thugs.

But that option is always there. It’s the only ethical option, no matter how the political critters may justify their preferred choice.
