I wanna say something to people who work in tech-related jobs in America: this is still a field where most people hate the rise of fascism and want to stop it. I know the media & amplification of the tycoons makes it seem like that’s the whole industry. But it’s not. And we still have power.

@anildash absolutely. There is good here, and we will be fine. I am seeing a disgusting amount of doom and gloom from the younger group in America.... they are scared. I get it... but we as a country have been through so much more. SO MUCH more... but so many democrats (I'm a dem) right now (I would say the far left) is freaking out publicly, trying to start a fuss, and actually sharing BS misinformation. They are doing things right out of the far right playbook. It's stupid.

@Vidmo @anildash Women have already died because of abortion restrictions in red states. Hispanic people will be harassed by immigration cops, and trans kids will be forced to stay in the closet. Maybe the worst-case scenarios won't come to pass, but lots of people have reason to be scared.

@samadeleine @anildash That is very true.... so horrible. I hope we can get this resolved. I have a good friend that went though this, lost his wife. I understand. But this isn't just Trump... that is some really fucked up republicans that are hyper focused on a God that they don't go a see every Sunday.

@Vidmo @samadeleine @anildash oh, no. It's very much Trump. From the very first time he laughed when he heard his supporters were beating up people just for being Hispanic way back durng his first campaign, he enabled and fostered such hate. He made it OK to show that type of action. He took control of the party by having no shame. Yes, he's made it much, much worse

@joncruz I think you may be giving that ONE man too much. Statistically, one man can not have that kind of effect. Even Hitler didn't have that... it was his inner circle, but it was also the German people. They loved him... until they didn't. That is what we are facing right now. Trump is a catalyst that brought out what we are seeing... lol Trump didn't do anything but give the real assholes a way to express their real intentions. Trump was his own pawn.

@Vidmo statistics can easily lie to you. It is possible for Spiders Georg to muck things up.
You're also missing some things on Hitler. They followed him until he died. After the fact many claimed otherwise. But they followed. Once he died so did the bulk of the movement.
I studied this a lot. Much while stationed literally in former Nazi barracks.
I also listen to the experts in Nazi history. Those academics have also been trying to raise the alarm. Listen to them.

@Vidmo BTW, when I mentioned "studied" while I was in Germany, one of the main things if "studying" was the studying for my Sergeant's exam board. This was also the period of time when someone from my building (not unit) defected to the U.S.S.R., and when a west German youth landed a plane in Red Square. The board was tough (made the promotion list in only 2 years peacetime though. I definitely had to study hard)

@joncruz I do understand this.... I was a tad salty last night for reasons.... and that is great you did your advancement in 2 years. Military billets are sometimes very difficult due to a lot of politics and staffing.... so testing out that fast is amazing
