We’re seeing in the US that majority of the people are being apathetic or ignorant to what is going on as it doesn’t directly affect them, and others are pointing out that we’re on the same route as Germany. Once Hitler seized power and then later when the county split, what was life like for those people that didn’t say or do anything? Assuming they weren’t in a targeted class, did they just go on and live their lives normally? I know there was a drop in the quality of living for them, but did they not know any better? Was it a state of constant fear, or was there “no war in Ba Sing Se”
I’m just curious what majority of the population here would potentially experience.
A lot of that is absolutely also my opinion. But the slippery slope argument, that it will be worse in 5 years, I don’t believe. There is no reason for them to become a radical-right party. Just because we don’t like their policies, doesn’t mean they are the same as the fascist parties. There is still a clear distinction between parties with shit policies, but in the democratic spectrum and literal fascists.
