The reality is "Never Again is Now." What we decide to do is going to determine the future for ourselves, our descendants, those in the US and around the world.
We ARE at that critical juncture in history. It is incumbent on us not to act passively but stand up in solidarity.
Everyone still seems to think it will go away again somehow someday.
Due to a miracle like an election.
It will not.
Am telling you this as a German.
Everyone needs to wake up and get conscious about the consequences of all this.
It's full blown fascism and the pace is just terrifying.
I remember a university class where the prof asked us how many people would have been Nazi party members and Bo one put up their hands and he said “everyone, every one of you would have gone along with it.”
When the only "fight" some have in them is typing out their fear on a computer screen, while making 1000 excuses as to why they can't (insert a number of things) You're damn right they are the ones turning a blind eye or joining up. Because, well....(again with the excuses)
What really angers me is many of us did see this coming prior to the election. Not enough paid attention, cared or just wanted cheaper groceries. What do you do now that rights are being taken away, media is being silenced, prices are soaring, the things we took for granted are being taken away.
Exactly. We saw it coming and hoped we were wrong about how bad it would be. Waiting it out for four years or vocally protesting isn’t going to stop it in time.
Democratic leaders should have seen this coming and prepared. He told us what he would do. Now Dems are all “Oh geez, we didn’t think it was going to be this bad. Where can we hide as we piddle ourselves with fear?”
I dreamt that I was in 1930s Germany fighting to preserve the Weimar Republic and a mob of Nazis killed me for it. Like public execution style. It was an awful dream but it did reveal that I will always vehemently fight for democracy, even at the expense of my own life.
Supporting my trans and Jewish Americans. And, I left the country. Too many people nearly assaulting me in public bathrooms. And a spidey sense that some things could go terribly wrong.
Don’t look away
Or hide your eyes
Don’t kneel or pray
Or philosophise
Stare straight ahead
Stare them down
Make them regret
They crowned that clown
I know you're scared
So am i
But I need you to care
Cos your worlds on fire
