re: #311 Resistance Is Not Futile

I say again, the Weimar Republic was fatally flawed (and mostly hated by its own citizens) from the beginning, and it was 13 years old when Hitler came to power. We are in much better shape than that, and most of us know how much we have to lose if we don’t defend it.

Do we really? While we’re engaging in historical parallels, let’s consider that the Roman Republic existed for centuries and yet was twisted into becoming an empire in just a matter of years. The word “dictator” did not always have negative connotations.
