Ultimate Evil

It's been quite the hiatus since my last entry! Well, I'm back and intend to begin again.

Last night I was watching Nazis: Ultimate Evil on the History 2 channel (I love these types of shows and documentaries). How is it so many people so blindly followed along? It amazes me quite frankly. I understand how it can happen especially considering that was before the day and age of the internet with the use of fear mongering and brute force. Which segued into me thinking about how the internet and media is both a blessing and not so much. The media has such control over the "people" that with the media and the internet and scare tactics, it truly is quite simple to have tyranny and government control take over a country quite easily (it's happening now). <- yes. That is a RIDICULOUSLY long run-on sentence

My point being the Nazis aren't the only ones there to blame. You must also look to the people who stood idly by and said nothing, trusting the new regime, or looking the other way. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Watch how much control you give to your government and the establishments that have bought them. The average person in the US is blind to the undercurrents that are happening as I type this. Personal liberties are constantly stripped away. Watch the legislation and mandates you so eagerly embrace. Where do you draw the line? Honestly, do you have a line? Because, from where I'm standing so many of them are blurred for so many folks I know and come in contact with. Perhaps we should learn something from history. REAL history, not the glossed over crap taught in school or shown on conventional media outlets. Begin to wake up and pay attention to the fodder that is being spoon fed and gobbled up so eagerly. Speak out. Don't just stand by silently. Perhaps you think the things going (legislations about : gun rights, women's bodies, mandating medical procedures, ect) are "for the greater good" and perhaps you don't think it will affect you later. Maybe, maybe not… And when they do come for you and something you hold dear, hope there is someone, like me, who WILL speak up and speak out.

First They Came ~ Pastor Niemoller

First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.
