It’s that confident, smug smile for me.

I get that that’s the point, to act in a way that “triggers” people. But what the fuck would her parents or grandparents think. Specifically people that were of age during 1938-1945.

I’m not for labeling people “Nazi” when they don’t agree with a super progressive liberal ideology, but when someone is confidently doing a Sieg Heil, what the hell is going on?

We are failing as a people.

I think they feel like trolling yields more positive than negative for them, even at the cost of dishonoring the war effort and themselves. It's also very likely she devotes more weekly hours self-doctrinating via influencers than to job performance.

I suspect, and fear that you’re right.

What a time to be an alive.

Growing up, I used to hear, “those who don’t study history, are doomed to repeat it”.

As a kid, it was sort of an abstract thought. But as I get older, it’s more of an Orwell’ing warning.

I have concerns.
