So far it's primarily the LGBTQ, the homeless, and women to some extent.

I feel like I know you well enough to know I don't think that came out the way you intended.

We've had our very right to continue to be alive stripped away.

speaking as one of the millions of women who would have died without abortion care.



And unfortunately I think you're right - they're just getting started with us.

How the police looked the other way when fascists committed violence against others and when the courts also would let fascists off and give harsh sentences to those against fascism. Been happening here for a long time.

When it got to the point about them deciding to take on Russia they basically said Hitler did things without planning just whatever sounded good at the time. Sounds a lot like how Trump did things in office and why it went bad for both of them.

If Hitler had thought it over he would have prepared his army for the winter cold that ended up causing him to lose.

And Trump doesn't think over anything.
