Like holy shit they're already starting to ban Marx in Florida and Ukraine is arresting communists. Fuck fuck fuck what do we do fuck.

It doesn't even matter to people that Russia hasn't been communist for 30 years, they're still going to use this as an excuse to come for even the mildest of leftists eventually.

This shit reaks of the rise of Hitler just before WW2. Except this time all of Nato is going full Nazi.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

    That was their argument, not mine. I wasn't interested in any more Ye Olde Smirking Quippy Murder-Rapists after seeing "you got to see this" bits during multiple attempts from friends trying to get me to watch the show, so I didn't see enough to make that argument myself.
