That is not a comforting thought.

Civil war came out in 2016. Your math doesn’t add up…

And this country didn't learn a thing from either of them.

because we never fully punished the perpetrators. A full third of concentration camp kommandants lived up to age 70-90, almost all of them still in Germany.

The first American Civil War. We're disturbingly closer to the second one.

Which goes sone way to explaining the current situation.

Feels like we are pretty damned close to World War II. Trade wars, Nazis, talk of indoctrinated the youth...

We’re pretty damn close to the Civil War considering the institutional racism and it seems like the Confederate states finally won (and expanded from 12 states to about 30)

That can’t be right. I still remember people talking about WWII like it was yesterday.

They had to invent a new color of NDSM star device just for me

donachaidh.bsky.social•125 days ago

It's just black because all the colors ran together

mikestucka.bsky.social•125 days ago

They hadn't invented color yet.

ibumichele.bsky.social•125 days ago

Nope

The complete disregard of laws and norms is dividing the US.

Now with this talk of what would be a third term for Trump brings life to the movie CIVIL WAR.

Imagine an 88 year old Trump still in office...gawd.
