Escaping the "Mussolini moment": Trump's enablers and the banality of evil

[MissMillie]

"Now we need to understand that the "silence of one good man" can spell disaster for all good people. Each of us who remained passive as our impending disaster continued might have been the one "good man" who didn't act, didn't speak out, didn't resist, while men like Jeff Sessions, Stephen Miller and Donald Trump insisted that infants be ripped from their mothers' breasts. Men who didn't care that innocent people were dying from gun violence, a plague, hunger and violence, which they fostered. Men who didn't care about pre-existing conditions or elders who rely on Social Security to survive. Men who didn't care that women would be catapulted back to the Dark Ages."

3. That is why I am very critical of the insurrectionists and the Trumpers.

I know I get criticized here for that, but after the insurrection, I was done having any sympathy for any of these people.

5. I agree

I will find NO common ground with evil fucking COWARDS.
