Timothy Snyder warned these idiot bastards. #OnTyranny
Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.

Spent today having a wonderful time hiking in Extramadura, Spain
Selfie in front of a stone wall on a hiking trail. A portrait photo of a scenic hiking trail with a rocky mountain top and wild flowers on the left side. A photo of the ruins of castle dating from Spain Islamic period, with a prickly pear plant in the foreground. A photo of two friendly donkeys standing behind a gate, in a green plot of farmland. A group of terraced houses are visible in the background.
