1. It just boggles my mind

that nearly half of Americans can't see what's happening. What will Trump do if the protests are peaceful? That would give him fits! !We should support one another at these protests and remember the most important rule is nonviolence. If we're able to have nonviolent protests, it would take away Trump's excuses to quash the protests if they're doing nothing wrong.

3. Then, it was the "Good Germans". Now, it's "The Good Americans"

[GiqueCee]

4. It's not that they "CAN'T" see...

... it's that they don't want to see, and that, deep down inside, they fucking like it.
They're a lot of things, but "GOOD" ain't one of 'em.

[Joinfortmill]

16. True. Historically, the phrase was used sarcastically.

[GiqueCee]

19. Understood...

... and I have in interpreted it that way. But "good" is a shop-worn defense used by shifty-eyed weasels when they're caught doing things that are clearly NOT good. Like someone claiming that they are a "good" Republican. They ain't no such a thang as a "good" Republican.

6. I have noticed that demonstrators are

Chanting "Peaceful Protest", with their hands up when LEOs are approaching.

8. A half dozen agents provocateur setting fires and throwing rocks can provide all the TV shots FOX needs

That's how it works with fascists and communists. It's what they do to disrupt things and turn people viewing it on TV against the cause, whatever the cause. Fox "New" viewers are lost souls who eat up the snippets of agent provocateur provoked violence and grind their teeth in anger and hatred for the immigrants and the immigrants' supporters. And that, of course, is the point of Fox News.

But viewers of the major (Corporation and Oligarchy owned) news media will do their bit, as well, to put out the lie that the protests are violent, that many in the crowd were seeking to destroy property and loot, steal, rape, etc. etc. The goal is not necessarily to turn viewers against the cause of the protests, but to suggest that the protests, themselves, can easily be taken over by violent factions trying to take over the movement.

17. NON VIOLENCE PROTESTS

are the way to go, and the numbers of people who will be out on June 14th. There will be organizations to give people instructions of what to do in case of emergency. Also independent sources such as Meidas and Mary Trump media will be focusing on how to participate in a Non Violent Protest.

To all that will be participating nationwide , please be careful and power to the people!!! And I truly mean it.

18. "What will Trump do if the protests are peaceful?"

They won't be. Agents provocateurs will abound.

2. Amen to that. American Nazis. Never Forget!

[GiqueCee]

5. And never forgive.

7. The people in the bottom photo were being rounded up to be murdered in gas chambers.

What is happening to the immigrant community in this country is horrible and unforgivable, but it shouldn't be compared to the Holocaust.

[LuvLoogie]

9. When Jews were being rounded up,

Germans didn't know Jews were ultimately getting gassed. They didn't know, didn't care. They just supported Jews being rounded up and washed their hands of Jews' ultimate fate. Out of sight, out of mind.

The ONLY differences this time around, is communications technology and early resistance is stronger. In the 1940s, nobody would know where El Salvador or Libya was--or care. There would be no cameras, no reporters, no Congressman.

But it's the same fucking mind set. We compare so that it does not happen again--ultimately. And it IS happening, the same fucking things that led up to it. Hitler took America's example of how the Indigenous and kidnapped Africans were treated. Those proto-Holocaust tendencies are in our DNA.

[madaboutharry]

10. You need to visit the nearest Holocaust museum.

The German population absolutely knew. The population across Europe knew. The nazis relied on the local populations to enable mass murder.

[LuvLoogie]

11. And Americans knew what was happening

to Africans and the Indigenous and supported it. And Jewish refugees were turned away at our shores. And Americans do not care that women and children are being rounded up. Many support the military way laying the protestors.

Call it a tortilla, Naan, pita. It's all unleavened bread.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

14. Your last comment looks like a dogwhistle and it's also wrong. Naan and pita are leavened.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

13. Germans definitely knew.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

12. The top photo was taken in 2008. People have been approving of it for a long time.
