I always thought be on the right side of history is such a horrible way of thinking.
It could work for the shallowest people who by instincts or conviction have a map of herd morality and nothing more.
This is the most difficult time I have seen in my life and I have no confusion. I thought we were headed here some 14 years ago and feel vindicated by just how horribly fascistic the Trump admin is turning out to be.
But the easiest stuff aside (flat out riht and wrong) it raises more questions than it answers since how to proceed now is not as simple as pulling a lever..throughout I have seen people who claim to be moral and on the right side fuck up.
And they will continue to skilfully or by herd instinct zig-zag a path to safety ..lol.
Even David Brooks is all anti-fascist! Hes still David Brooks and was writing columns in Jan about the revenge of the common man.

Our children should NEVER forget it was the hubris of ONE MAN and his hateful flock of demented sheep that destroyed the Promise of a Free Democracy to remedy ills only obvious to himself, all of which pale to transparency compared to the damage he has already done. His name should be excorcized from our lexicon and spoken on pain of Death.
I awaken each day hoping he didn't.
And the rakes and pitchforks take the rest of them and make done of them.
They're renounced their humanity for sycophancy and idolatry and no longer deserve any better than they've shown for their neighbors and countrymen.
