A post about how to get from a tolerant society to one that closes its eyes to state-sanctioned brutality.
I could clip a paragraph or two from it, but that would not really be fair. You should read the entire thing.
And then maybe you might understand why a lot of people are pushing back, now, and not heeding the exhortation of "Be reasonable and give Trump a chance."
Because we've heard this tune before, only with different musicians.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
A depressing read, simply because of the recognition of the parallel acts that have occurred so far here. Worse, now that we have the real capacity to exterminate nations of peoples with WMD's, the cleansing need not be restricted to our territory, or that which we can easily reach.
ReplyDeleteWhat scares me is how Trump's supporters (or the ones that I know, anyway) don't take any of it seriously. They're all for it if it says "fuck you" to the previous president or makes liberals cry, and don't really care about (or believe in) any consequences I care to mention.
ReplyDeleteA fertile bed for the cultivation of stuff we all used to agree was bad.
