I guess I will read this soon. Right now I just want to escape in some frivolous fiction until I am ready to fight on.

Leftcoastzen Everyone should read this ! Thanks for the reminder to get it out and read it again! 2d
DeeLew @Leftcoastzen it is all so discouraging right now. I‘m definitely ready to fight evil by reading books! 2d
kspenmoll I read after Trump‘s first Presidency- a good time to reread! 2d
Kristy_K @kspenmoll Same! Time for a reread for sure. 2d

If you think that Donald Trump is the first elected official to support fascism, you should read this book. In the years leading up to US involvement in WW 2, an extensive German propaganda network had been set up here in America to discourage the US from supporting Britain in her fight against the Nazis. Many members of Congress aided this effort, much like MAGA legislators today support Trump. Excellent expose. Five stars.

Stunning and horrifying. The book details the groups and individuals working hard to get the American people to ally with the Nazi regime before our involvement in WWII. It‘s amazing the number of US citizens who were very sympathetic to Hitler and his goals. If not for the unyielding efforts by a few patriots, we could have easily been subsumed into the third reich. The parallels between then and now are chilling. Essential reading!

Leftcoastzen Great read ! 2mo

WildAlaskaBibliophile I've never heard of Bookly. That looks fun! 3mo
PurpleyPumpkin @WildAlaskaBibliophile I like it! You can try it for free for a small number of books. StoryGraph looks like it might have a bit more functionality but I‘m invested in Bookly at this point. 🙃 3mo

My heart feels a lot right now. I imagine his is broken. I know B. did the right thing, but I am so afraid. I don't think my heart can hold everything that will come if this wicked man gets back in the office again. I will do everything I can to get peoplx to vote. I will vote. I will continue to try and help others like I always have. I will try to hold on to some hope…we are at a critical point right now. This is not the time to sit it⬇️

JenniferEgnor out. We can choose to work to create a more loving, just, and democratic future, or we can choose a fascist, totalitarian nightmare. Choose wisely. This is not a game, this is not hyperbolic. Pay attention. This is it, folx. If we go over this cliff, there is no coming back from it. Choose wisely. Remember this—in the end, fascism comes for everyone…even the fascists. Choose wisely. 4mo
Leftcoastzen Love this post , ready to reread this book 4mo

Cuilin @dabbe I would love Buttigieg too though I think they‘ll pick a governor from a swing state though I heard Mark Kelly is also on the list!!! 💙💙💙 4mo
Cuilin I spent a lot of time on TikTok yesterday, checking out the vibes. I feel really hopeful most that younger generation seem to be ready to vote for Harris. 4mo
dabbe @Cuilin We love M. Kelly and all he's done for our state. We lost our governor (Napolitano) to Obama's administration, and our state has just now just recovered. I would hate to lose a Senate seat because who knows what our purple state would do if he left. 4mo
Cuilin @dabbe I believe your governor is a Democrat and gets to pick a replacement for Kelly if needed? 🤞 4mo
dabbe @Cuilin Yes, but then comes an election, and that's when things can get crazy in this state. 🤪 4mo
Cuilin @dabbe got it. NH is a weird little purple surrounded by blue. 4mo
dabbe @Cuilin I have high hopes for both of our states! #gobigblue 4mo
