Snake Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 One of the biggest revelations concerns a question that has always plagued me: How does one explain the "good German," the term used to describe the average, presumably decent German, who did nothing to hurt Jews but also did nothing to help them and did nothing to undermine the Nazi regime? ... What has changed my thinking has been watching what is happening in America (and Canada and Australia and elsewhere, for that matter). The ease with which tens of millions of Americans have accepted irrational, unconstitutional and unprecedented police state-type restrictions on their freedoms, including even the freedom to make a living, has been, to understate the case, sobering. The same holds true for the acceptance by most Americans of the rampant censorship on Twitter and all other major social media platforms. Even physicians and other scientists are deprived of freedom of speech if, for example, they offer scientific support for hydroxychloroquine along with zinc to treat COVID-19 in the early stages. Board-certified physician Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, who has saved hundreds of COVID-19 patients from suffering and/or death, has been banned from Twitter for publicizing his lifesaving hydroxychloroquine and zinc protocol. Half of America, the nonleft half, is afraid to speak their minds at virtually every university, movie studio and large corporation -- indeed, at virtually every place of work. Professors who say anything that offends the left fear being ostracized if they have tenure and being fired if they do not. People are socially ostracized, publicly shamed and/or fired for differing with Black Lives Matter, as America-hating and white-hating a group as has ever existed. And few Americans speak up. On the contrary, when BLM protestors demand that diners outside of restaurants raise their fists to show their support of BLM, nearly every diner does. So, then, who are we to condemn the average German who faced the Gestapo if he didn't salute Hitler or the average Russian who faced the NKVD (the secret police and intelligence agency that preceded the KGB) if he didn't demonstrate sufficient enthusiasm for Stalin? Americans face the left�s cancel culture, but not left-wing secret police or reeducation camps. (At least not yet -- I have little doubt the left would send outspoken conservatives to reeducation camps if they could.) I have come to understand the average German living under Nazism and the average Russian living under communism for another reason: the power of the media to brainwash. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever wrote this learned a lot from Trump. Accuse others of doing exactly what you are doing. Trump told you not to Trust the media so you wouldn’t believe them when they reported his lies. Trump tried to steal the election. He claimed democrats were hiding Republican ballots but he’s the one that wanted the mail in ballots to be tossed out. Trump used military helicopters as a show of force against peaceful Whitehouse protestors. Then used teargas and rubber bullets so he could stage a photo opp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't a maybe, it wasn't a could be, it was a known fact that would be borne out of THE MUELLER REPORT!!!!!!111111eleventy. For 3 years you looked like an idiot, then had to leave when the forum when you looked just TOO stupid. I've been he since day one and never HAD to leave. Collusion.

Yeah the Mueller report. The one that did not exonerate Trump. The one that lead to multiple obstruction charges against Trump operatives. You know all those people that Trump had to Pardon and Promised Pardons to in exchange for pardons. How many times did Obama use force against peaceful demonstrators? How many times did he threaten to use the military jail political opponents? George Bush destroyed 30 million emails, his team was found guilty Obama had 100 times the reason to chant lock him up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
