History doesn't repeat itself but it rhymes.
Komsomol/Soviet, Red guards/China.
Ideology fan the flame of youth into fanatic.
Who/what is providing the necessary guardrail?
God speed America. Future belong to the young.
Make good/long term decision.
The Trump-supporting Red Guards might be the Michigan Militia? Or the marchers at the disastrous "Unite the Right" rally? Those are tiny fringe groups orders of magnitude too weak to carry out a Cultural Revolution. Maybe the 1500 people who got pardoned for the January 6 riot?
You may not be aware of this, but the Red Guards were over 10 million people.

I guess we should be thankful that the new Red Guards aren't beating federal employees to death. Yet.
