Authoritarians want you to feel isolated and alone, to feel like their vision of the world is the only one.
That’s why taking part in public protests matters. You connect with other people like you and you show those numbers off to the world. It’s a great feeling. Try it!

I’m gonna make it simple since it seems a lot of the liberals on this site right now are having trouble with this. It was illegal to protect Anne Frank and it was legally required to turn her in to the Nazis.
If your reliance on the law dictates your morals you have already lost to the fascists.

@edsbs.bsky.social I took a page out of the Spencer playbook tonight at our local brewery’s music trivia night. Old Time Rock & Roll came on and I proceeded to sing “just take those old records off the shelf” over and over until my wife threatened my life

I read a lot of stupid things on the internet every day and this might be one of the dumbest.

“It’s y’all’s fault for pointing it out TOO SOON and making me uncomfortable”
I am not blaming Democrats for Republicans becoming fascists. I am blaming people who overused "fascist" for years for removing the power of that word and gutting it of meaning, and making it useless now that we need it.
Something I warned would happen.
