@feld @starbreaker I want to say that they are too busy being outraged over asylum-seeking families being torn apart at our southern border, terrified children ripped from their parents, possibly never to see them again.
But I would be totally lying. Most people in Congress are completely okay with that and just fine with the idea of making us all sit up and salute, and being sent to die in a gulag if we don't sit up straight or fast enough.

@jannamark @feld I'm tempted say that maybe America NEEDS to go full-on totalitarian so that people will wake up and remember why we fought so hard against that shit in the 20th century, but all I have to do to avoid getting shipped off to a concentration camp is cut my hair, shut down my website, keep my mouth shut, and be a good German. Other people won't have it so easy.
