A week ago, I sent out the link to Greg Anderson's first video, calling on
his colleagues in law enforcement nationwide to stop trying to enforce
"social distancing." 

Now—on orders from somewhere on high—this brave cop has lost his
job, charged with "insubordination" for refusing to take down that video.
He tells the story in this new one:

That's bad enough. Worse yet, we have people on "the left" applauding 
Anderson's dismissal, as evidenced in the attached message from
Rob Kall, editor of the ostensibly "progressive" Op Ed News. 

What kind of "left" supports the prolongation of the lockdowns
nationwide, and wants the cops to keep on cracking down? We note
the pro-lockdown tilt in such "left" outlets as "Democracy Now!" and 
the World Socialist Web Site, among others. That "left" is tacitly
fascistic, notwithstanding all its Social Justice pieties, like Kall's
glib reference to the violence of racist cops against unarmed black
people—as if the lockdown isn't killing far more people, black,
brown and white, than is COVID-19.
