Four Types of People



This is where we are.  

This is the answer a Nazi would give in Germany in November of 1938.

We now have massive detention camps (of sizes built for citizens, not “criminal illegal aliens”) and ICE funding levels larger than the budget of the US Marine Corps.

Thousands have been disappeared, and now a work-authorized Colombian has been shot in the head in front of his wife and three-year old child by a posse of nameless, faceless, masked men.

All of this has been given the Big Wink by the billionaire-funded right-wing politicians and their bot-like astro-turf supporters.

Silence tells the world what we tolerate.

There were four kinds of Germans in 1939:  Those who supported the Nazis, those who rationalized their silence any number of ways, those who were silent due to terror, and the resisters.

Who are you is determined by what you say and do now.

You can no longer say you have no idea how Germany got to Kristallnacht.
