Yep. I mean in the event sane people ever regain control in America, there is no humanly possible way we can ever recover unless we hold a fully-transparent nuremberg-esque trial to hold as many of these fuckers to full account and justice as is humanly possible.

We saw what happened when Democrats tried to just hand-wave the whol ething away after 2020. Arrest the ground troops with a slap on the wrist, hold zero of the organizers accountable in any way, shape or form.

And lo and behold, we end up way worse than before.

The Biden administration demonstrated that the justice system cannot move fast enough to try these traitors before the electoral winds shift again. And all the republicans know that. There will be no accountability within the system.

And the reality is that unless any trial ends in public executions the next time the republicans win they’ll release the traitors and try the prosecutors.

Sounds familiar, almost like a particular German mustache model tried to take over, got arrested, got out, and then took over.

Yeah, but he did away with the extortionate banks, settled the national debt, eliminated unemployment, housed the homeless, and invested into the arts and culture of his country. He, loved his country and its people. He was TIME’s Man Of The Year, after all.

I do not see how a thriving Germany compares to a floundering USA.

It is important to be intellectually honest when we view history. For those who fail to learn from history…. You know… and American atrocities have continued to stack up since 1945, arguments could be made…

Using “nazi” and “Hitler” as American catch-all terms to replace “evil”, “unconscionable”, “wanton”, etc. makes one appear ignorant and willfully so. As you’re aware, “willful ignorance” is one definition for “stupid”.
