Allowing dissenting journalists lives to the threatened, allowing personal property to be destroyed or stolen, etc.
Its watching the early days of a totalitarian uprising -
I've listened for a few of the Darkhorse podcasts. Pretty good. Never thought I'd find someone who worked at Evergreen reasonable.
