The election rigged! There widespread voter fraud! Votes were flipped by machines!

Those accusations are being repeated by people who wanted President Trump to win re-election. People who wanted Mr. Biden to win deride those claims.

There is one thing we can we can be sure of with a metaphysical certainty: if everything was the same except that the vote totals were reversed, those two groups’ positions would be opposite what they are now (with “intimidation” and “suppression” replacing “fraud”). In other words, neither group’s position has anything to do with the actual casting and tabulating of votes.

Both groups’ positions are based on the outcome of the election, and nothing else. That is why Liberal society is failing.
