I’m increasingly wondering why people in the US aren’t taking to the streets in their thousands.
I’d also like to share a poem by Martin Niemöller, who was a pastor in Germany during the Nazi regime and even supported the Nazis at the beginning:
First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me (Martin Niemöller)
The fact that so many people continue to support him is sickening. They live in a fantasy that the world is 1700 and we don’t need a federal gov or any social systems. They love having a big military to bully the world though.
