Today Thomas Edsall has one of his trademark, humongously long, “thoughtful” pieces on “politics, demographics and inequality” at the New York Times: One Thing We Can Agree on Is That We’re Becoming a Different Country The overall theme of the article is summed up in an email Edsall quotes, from a political scientist at USC, Dennis Chong. Chong wrote to Edsall about what he terms “a demographic realignment of political tolerance in the U.S. that first became evident in the late 1980s-early 1990s.” What Chong sees is this:
We've said it before, but history will again prove it out: Marxists always (always*) eat their own, first.
"now they’re behind the curve and the Wokesters are coming for them."

From the Girondins to the Hebertists, from the Kulaks to the Trostskyists, etc., the real question now is, what form will the Purges take?
Secret (Lubianka-style), or public (Killing Fields-style)?
Hannity now, on Jimmy Kimmel, Scarborough etc., on how non-vaxed should be left to die, to make hosp. room for the vaxed.
