The USA is returning to its Nazi Germany roots.

It was Nazi Germany who based their rules against Jews on the USA's Jim Crow laws.

Now the USA is copying Nazi Germany.

Round and round it goes.

A good question from @thedauk.bsky.social

Why do we have a desperate shortage of GP’s when there are 3,500 under and unemployed GP’s? It makes no sense

Jimmy Carter, a visionary on ending fossil fuels, put solar panels on the White House. Big Oil-backed Ronald Reagan ousted Carter in 1980 and ripped them out

I used to think that when global warming truly began to bite, deniers would face reality & we could act. Now I think it's more likely it will lead to a kind of fascism that will respond to global warming by, like, executing everyone who says global warming is real.

Remember that books are going to be harder to find. Public libraries might be something that they go after. I know that food is #1 priority, but knowledge should be in your top 5.

Please stay safe and please educate yourself.

What will you do when confronted by a group of white supremacists? Stay quiet and recede into the background? Join? Or stand up to them with your full chest because you know what they are doing is evil and must stop? It starts with unification & education. How do you think they got started?
