Truth here

And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.

In the current 'War against Jews and Whites' the tipping point comes soon - within the next 8-10 years.

It'll happen when Biden and his goons import (let cross the border) enough third world black/brown people to mix with current progressive/democrats to tip the balance - - making this a one party country.

It's as if Hitler were able to import millions of foreigners primed by jealousy and racial rage to stand with him. In those circumstances Hitlere might not have lost World War II. Democrats know when Illegals are made legal they vote democrat for the first three generations.

History may not repeat exactly but it sure does rhyme doesn't it?

We remain in disbelief collectively thinking it is best not to overreact. We will keep doing that until it is way too late.

Meanwhile we will try to out vote rigged computers and send in our strongly worded ballot. Yeah, that will work against tyranny. Sure, that is the way a republic is supposed to work. We are only governed by the consent of the governed aren't we? Keep believing that and see where it gets us. Where has it gotten us so far?
