The title is shit but never forget this will be remembered as a time of terror, not a time of Liberty. They will not rewrite history to make this glorious. And at the same time, my fellow Americans here, they are lumping us in with their lot for all of history to remember us just as monstrous as them. Doesnt that make you want to do something?
This title… What’s a “Teen Trump?”
I read it the same way, it’s a terrible title.
, that
I didn’t read it this way, but if an updated title would be clearer for more people I suppose I could do that
Trying to use history as a guide; how did the GOOD Germans resist tactics like these, how effective were those tactics, and were there any takeaways on how they could’ve improved?
My takeaway is to act now or hold your peace.
But this is not accurate because we are not like early 1930’s Germany. There, the fascists supplanted an actual democracy and people really protested and fought on the streets. There was a need by the fascist to brutally suppress or be out of power.
America today is not transitioning from a democracy to a fascist state; but is an oligarchy undergoing a minor political realignment of its most powerful families. There is no real protest to suppress. There is no street fighting. There is still mostly freedom of speech. There are no leaders of action to rally around.
The best most of us can do is try to help block unjust arrests and provide shelter and hiding to immigrants. Most of us will not be able to act at all
