Thursday

my elder siblings have been telling me for years that we are/were on the brink of fascism. Sad that they were right. Most terrible things that happen are foreseen by some (especially the ones paying attention), ignored by many, and then people are shocked when they happen. Will we ever be able to stop history from repeating itself?
