re: #219 Blind Frog Belly White
It’s hard to know how much to panic. It seems silly to start talking about Nazi Germany, brownshirts, and concentration camps. OTOH, I suspect the Germans of the 1930s also thought it was silly to talk about that shit, too.
I would not panic as much as I would have a handful of contingency plans. Donald Trump and Vlad & The Kremlin Crew have between themselves ticked of enough of the fascist checklist to be considered (intellectually un)armed and dangerous.
If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it is most likely a duck (or a damn good ripoff), IMO.
Speaking of which, anything from our deep cover Lizardim?
re: #224 Eclectic Cyborg
I agree. It can happen before you know it.
“First they came for the people who accept climate change and I said nothing…”
It’s the modus of many a fascist regime, the “boiled frog phenomenon”… People don’t see what’s afoot until the fat cats have cemented their position.
