Marxists Scare Even Each Other

Last week, the New York Post reported,

The NYPD is preparing for protests in the city as the presidential election nears …, according to a memo obtained by The Post.

To police the expected protests, the department will require most cops to report for duty in uniform and “be prepared for deployment” starting Oct. 25, the memo states.

“This November 3rd will be the one of the most highly contested presidential elections in the modern era. There is also a strong likelihood that the winner of the presidential election may not be decided for several weeks,” the memo states.

For whatever reason, New York’s Marxist NPR station (but I repeat myself; why, in the age of internet radio and Bluetooth, do Our Rulers still rip us off to subsidize NPR?) broadcast this news today. As nearly as I recall, the talking head announced: “The NYPD will deploy officers around the City during the upcoming elections, to contain any protests and to be certain no voters are intimidated…” There was also the obligatory slander of Trump, something along the lines of his refusing to leave office.

“Intimidate voters”? But wait: this is Moscow on the Hudson, a thoroughly Marxist town. Who’s left, so to speak, to intimidate the commies queuing at the polls? I mean, come on, all two Republicans in New York City couldn’t intimidate much of anything, not even Biden if they stormed his basement.
