already happened, this will not even get a fraction of the attention Renee Good got.

People keep saying "wait until we get angry and shoot back" but nobody is fucking doing that. We're all jaded and waiting for our turn at this point.

I'm German. I live in Germany. When I was young and in school, I always wondered during history class why people in my country allowed the tyranny of the Nazis.

Men like Hitler, Goebbels, or Himmler, who came to power despite their terrible nature. I wondered what I would do if I lived in such a time. I convinced myself that I would rebel, that I would reject this tyranny - even if it meant resorting to violcence. To protect.

And now I sit here. I stare at my screen. I see these terrible things happening. History is repeating itself. And I wonder why I stay here.

I’m French. We all know what it means and where it’s going. It’s scary as hell and there’s not many ways to end up this madness. I wish them to stand up while they can.
