This. Is. Different. WE are different. We know what to do. Gray rock the chaos, hold our representatives responsible, and use whatever resources we have in what ever capacity we are able to help those most harmed by these policies, to name a few.

We learned about the French Revolution and the Shoah and the fight for civil rights and we taught our young ones and we made books and movies so that the history can never be forgotten.

For one thing, this isn't a repeat; it's a sh*tty mimeographed copy being run by the least qualified humans in history. Maybe not everyone studied as they should've to recognize the signs, but many of us did.

Not only did Herzog never say that, it's simply untrue. Just because we're not out in the streets punching Yahtzees like Lt. Aldo Raine doesn't mean we aren't doing anything. And there's a whole lotta progress toothpaste that can't be so neatly stuffed back in the tube.

Anything that includes the word “journey”. 🤢
