History doesn’t begin with atrocities. It begins with people saying “it can’t happen here.”
Experts are using the same psychological warnings seen in past authoritarian figures.
Ignore the signs at your own risk.

EVERYONE please understand that standing in solidarity doesn’t mean “Do everything MY Way” it means we support you and stand with you even as we do the things that are important to us.

@peters.senate.gov I have heard through other social media that you are one of several democrats planning to "back down" or "cave" tomorrow. I am hoping that you and your fellow Democtrats are able to stay strong through this shutdown. It can't be easy, but we need you.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.
The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

The majority of Americans are good. We have heart. We have compassion. When we see others struggle, we want to lend a hand.
For too long, we’ve been divided and pitted against each other by those who crave obscene wealth and power.
Let’s change that. One election at a time.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.

Back in the 1960s, the Smothers Brothers made fun of President Lyndon Johnson and his policies many times on their popular television show. The president wrote them a letter in response.

It is agonizing that we are all screaming at each other. It appears that we all seem to want to argue ideology without discussing viable strategies to reach common goals given our current context. It suggests that we're all pissed off, but no one actually knows what to do about it.

Don't turn away from these atrocities. Witness them, share them with good people you know so that everyone sees the #ICELawlessness & VOTE BLUE!
Don't let anyone you know be able to say they didn't know this was happening like Germans said about the Holocaust where my family members were murdered.

I love my kid's school. They are so committed to Universal Design Theory that the principle said that if a child with a disability needs an accommodation, they have failed the student. They thank each other in announcements and remark on how good it feels to be thankful. A public school!
