So interesting to read a perspective from another country dealing with much of the same issues.

The feeling of not being able to sleep, of impotent outrage? Yeah, that's how I felt when he started that family separation policy, and they started stealing children from their parents. It was the most egregious thing they'd done to that point, and it was beyond belief that this was happening in my country. There was nothing I could do except call and email my elected representatives, most of whom agreed with it.

I FEEL your frustration.

Our specific political issues aren't really causing this. These people have ALWAYS been with us, throughout human history. Sometimes we have rulers strong enough to resist them, sometimes we don't, but the problem with evil humanity is that they are infinitely patient, and they never give up. So if this generation manages to resist them, they'll make what progress they can, and wait for the next generation. That's what they've been doing since Reagan and Rush took over the American political scene in the 80s, and have been mucking it up ever since, until they finally saw their chance, and grabbed it.

My point is that no matter what the political situation is, good or bad, these people are always waiting in the shadows, organizing, planning, and getting into position. We can never forget who they really are, and what they really want, so that when they emerge, we can tell them that we know they are liars, and shove them back into their hole. Evil people don't deserve the privilege of walking among us with their hate on full demonstration mode.

Yep, your kind of thinking is the problem. No sense of history, or the people who have consistently rampaged through it. People have been people for as long as there have been people, and we've ALL seen the variations between humans. To PRETEND that somehow everybody is born exactly the same is contrary to everybody's experience, especially anyone who had siblings raised in the same situations.

Some people are born with wiring to be decent people, and some people are just born to be evil. There are videos of Stephen "Pee Wee Himmler" Miller in high school arrogantly defending highly racist concepts, illustrating that this psychopath has been a bad seed his entire life.

It's time to stop pretending these are normal people for whom we have a normal philosophical disagreement. By definition, MAGA supports a POLICY of treason, pedophilia, rape, racism, intolerance, corruption, slavery, hate, and more, and they aren't novel. People with these same sorts of philosophical leanings have emerged over and over throughout history. Pointing that out, and telling people like you that it is your responsibility to hold the line against that sort of oppression, is not "hitlerite," it's patriotic. If you can't see that, you're either MAGA, or one of those weak, spineless Democrats who allowed all this to happen with your political weeniness.
