@barubary and my point is, why in hell does ANYONE think that this time, it will be different? On the left and center, people aren’t getting that, as @cstross has stated, NO ONE is safe. On the right/fascist side, why do they think that THIS time, it will work, and they’ll be able to cleanse the world and enslave everyone they don’t kill?

If they win and consolidate power, MILLIONS of people are going to die. That’s how it always works. This is what they do.
