This, this is where my hope remains. Not in the protests, not in the solidarity, not in the lobbying, it's the fact that McShitMyPants is incontinent and incompetent and their whole group cannot help but eat each other.
I just finished reading "a game of birds and wolves" about the anti-uboat war game that came up with the tactics that eventually won the battle of the Atlantic, and my biggest takeaway is that Germany could never have won. Eventually, Fascist regimes fall to infighting and paranoia. It happened then, it will happen now.
Who knew an ideology based on ruthless competition would fail at a task that requires cooperation?
While true... a whole lot of people died needlessly and horribly "then" and I think people kind of want to stop that happening "now"
Oh absolutely, but it fills me with hope that it is, and always has been, a doomed enterprise.
