The only difference is that the Nazis were at least somewhat competent. Watching this administration pretending to be Nazis while walking themselves off a cliff is just... Bizarre. I expected things to be bad, I expected things to be stupid, I didn't expect things to be THIS dumb

Interesting, I thought the post was referring to what's happening in palestine

I warned people. Not that they listened. But I'll continue to do so, even if they "come get me" in the end. No one will ever take that away from me.

Waited until I have something I can actually do. Right now everything is happening ~2000+ miles away, but I'm sure it will get here eventually. Until then, I'll try to get prepared for the inevitable shitstorm.

There is plenty to do locally to make your corner of the world better.

Copying my other comment: Find like minded people, collective action is always stronger than individual action. If you don't currently have a community that is engaged, consider joining a Unitarian Universalist congregation. Unitarians in the US and Europe resisted the German Nazis by creating documents and providing refuge for Jewish people fleeing the Holocaust. Many congregations today have active social and environmental justice groups, often focusing on local action with low barriers to entry. Nobody is expected to believe any particular scripture, but UUs have a common set of principles, the first being everyone has inherent worth and dignity.

I guess travel. Because I've had the urge to travel so hard for the past couple months. But I am 22 so I guess it's that phase

For Democrats and Republicans, clearly you all would have marched right along with them. I don't want to hear another word about your moral purity when you voted for a genocide. The hypocrisy is stunning.
