Study history.
Every act of state brutality you tolerate when it’s used against “the others” will eventually be used against you.
Once violence is normalized, the circle of “others” keeps widening.
No matter what—you’ll find yourself inside it, in time.

Does anyone remember the psychotic and dangerous Hollis Green from Big Love?
He always used to end his concersations with " very truly yours Hollis Green".

Ring out a slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.

it's crazy that 500 years ago, you would see the ruler of your country maybe once in your life and hear whispers that they're the Sun God, but now with social media, you get to see on a daily basis that they're the most unhinged, idiotic, and unhappy person you know

Sick to death of people claiming Die Hard isn’t a movie. There are several clues that it definitely is:
It’s 130 minutes long and full of actors
It has a beginning a middle and an end
It has a soundtrack
The aspect ratio is consistent of other movies of the era
