Eventually. ‘Moderate’ German people went just as crazy. History will repeat. America is not immune.

And thus history repeats.
Compromise means never suffering the burden of responsibility.
“Compromise means never suffering the burden of responsibility.”
Or accountability. They go hand in hand.
Yeah..
Another way to put it would fall under “Things Lydia taught me in Skyrim”
