When proper faith in the Almighty is replaced by a belief in the state, e.g. Al Gore:

From the standpoint of governance, what is at stake is our ability to use the rule of law as an instrument of human redemption.

But this is only a distilled expression of the lousy theology exhibited in the Second Bill of Rights. Managed liberty is not liberty; Progressivism/Statism/Socialism (you have to understand that these greased pigs resist all labels) is but an ersatz substitute for the real thing, and must be rejected.

The statement of "your party" does not indicate ownership, but rather membership.

There is ambiguity here, yes.

You regularly accuse me of being a member of an established party.

Statism is really more of a disease than a party.

I'm mainly driving toward doing an AWS certification, but what I don't want to do is some kind of configuration boo-boo and get slapped with a $500 bill or something for random faffing about.
I'm saying that the sunk costs of a phat box to try some of these stylings offline, then push the configuration to AWS, at least seems less risky.

Wait: you get to accuse me of having my own party, accuse me of having privilege, then accuse me of insisting that you are a member of some established party? I don't remember saying you were the DNC chair, for all your utterances do rival those of Wasserman-Schultz for incoherence.
If you want an accusation, I think you're a defender of statism.
