@wdlindsy They are trying to make you doubt what you see.
This is all textbook fascism.

@androcat Yes, you're right.
-
@MoiraEve Yes, very valuable commentary.

@benny Definitely only the beginning. It will get worse.
-
@MoiraEve Absolutely. Well-stated.
-
@lin11c I agree.

@glitzersachen Thank you for that testimony. Anyone with eyes open who knows anything at all about the history of Nazism knows exactly what he intended to signal.

@timo21 Yes.

@CWilbur Yes. This is an uphill battle, when the means of communication is controlled by Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg. et al.

@TheComfortableSpotPodcast Because my father was a soldier who lived through the attack on Pearl Harbor, his brother assisted in the liberation of the Netherlands, my mother's brother saw the site of the massacre at Gardelegn and captured an SS officer, another uncle was in the landing at Anzio and marched into Russia, seeing death everywhere:
Because of all of this, I grew up knowing well the evil they risked their lives to defeat. I fear people younger than I am often know little history.
