News Alert! Hitler Appointed Chancellor! #Project1933
Following the rise of Hitler's Nazi dictatorship in real time will be extremely instructive. Pay attention.
Rachel Bitecofer is doing something on Twitter you should absolutely pay attention to. Aside from being a fascinating look at history, it’s an incredibly important lesson for today we need to fully grasp before it’s too late.
She is going to live tweet the rise of Hitler as he transformed Germany from a weak, but functional democracy into the authoritarian nightmare of the Nazi regime responsible for the death of 11 millions souls1 in German death camps.
Here’s the 2 things that make this #1933Project desperately important for us:
Hitler assumed power and swore an oath to uphold the law with a plan already in place to seize total power and violate that oath.
Donald Trump and the GOP have “Project 2025” which is a detailed plan for violating their oaths of office, ending the American Experiment, and replacing it with a fascist police state.It only took Hitler 10 months to finish transforming Germany into the kind of fascist police state Trump and the GOP are planning. It was that fast.
Perhaps we should pay attention to What Bitecofer (and history) is telling us.
There are 279 days until the 2024 election. Vote blue like your life depends on it.
6 million Jews and 5 million others including Roma, homosexuals, P.O.W.s, the physically and mentally disabled, socialists, and more.
I’ve often thought that, had I been around in Germany in the thirties, I certainly hope I’d be one of the people fighting against this and, in the latter years helping others hide and escape. That if ever in that kind of situation (not that it could ever happen here, of course) that the people who did would be the models I’d follow.
Time to see if we’re who we hoped we would be.
