Polls are showing that Walker is falling out of favor. This is huge and a strong catalyst.
Also polls are showing that the people of Wisconsin don't want Walker to mess with the unions. They never wanted it in the first place and Walker is doing his little GOP authoritarian overreach thing.
The only way to move an authoritarian politician's political position is with force, the greater the force, the greater the movement. Its all about power and control. You can't bully people around when they think you are fundamentally a jerk and or stupid. Eventually the people rebel.
Cs Monitor: Slightest signs of compromise emerge in Wisconsin labor fight
According to a poll conducted March 2 by Rasmussen Reports and released Friday, the governor’s job approval rating is 43 percent, with 57 percent disapproving of his performance. Walker was elected governor in November with 52 percent of the vote.
...39 percent of Wisconsin voters say they favor weakening collective bargaining rights, while 52 percent are opposed.
Of the 43 (State budgets) released so far, only one-fifth propose alternative measures such as tax increases and tapping reserves to coincide with large spending cuts...The rest, like Walker's budget, tilt heavily toward cuts in services and programs.

People have to start to understand that when u vote for these fucks you get the whole enchilada, no parsing their program baby. Totalitarians and Authoritarians don't compromise nor do they bargain. They're a humorless toxic bunch of crap and need to be confronted like any standard schoolyard bully. Trying to bargain with them only empowers and encourages them.
I think you are right, and comparing them to the schoolyard bully is accurate.
Its related to this. I am beginning to think about the aspect of maturity in the authoritarian. Not a lot of maturity, I mean look at Walker. Its his ball and he's going to take it away because we are not playing with it his way. How can he not be moved by 100,000 people yelling in his ear.
