Flying Under Security Level Red:
I thought they were saving red for another horrific day like 9/11, when there’s such a heightened state of emergency that planes are grounded, government officials head for safety, people scramble to account for loved ones and TV goes 24/7 terror.
Well, you might do that. But you’re not watching your party’s hold on the levers of power weaken, or the stain of corruption creeping ever-closer. So you wouldn’t need to use terror and fear as weapons on your own people.
