    Default We must speak truth to fascism

    Witness to the Holocaust. Irene Butter is a survivor who watched the rise of the Nazis as a girl in Germany. She writes a warning for Americans that their democracy is at stake and sees "echoes of the Nazis and their regime" in the insurrection at the US Capitol, which featured rioters in Holocaust-denying T-shirts and other anti-Semitic symbols.

    "The disinformation, distortion and denial of human rights and democracy that resulted in the Holocaust must not happen again. We must speak truth to fascism."


    "Four years ago, we could not have guessed that rioters with Nazi symbols would break into the Capitol to subvert a fairly elected president. None of us can afford to be a bystander to history. We all must confront racism and hatred when we see it. We must establish a record, encourage witnesses and others to speak out, and teach truth. Each of us can and must make a difference."


    It's a compelling story from a woman who barely survived concentration camps and, once freed, was forced to live for a time alone as a refugee, separated from her mother and brother after her father's death. Butter's warning is in line with the message Arnold Schwarzenegger, who was born in Austria after the war, posted on social media after the Capitol insurrection.

    — Golda Meir

    Zionism is the movement for the self-determination and statehood for the Jewish people in their ancestral homeland, the land of Israel.

    She is an inspiration for generations of believers in democracy and strong government institutions, able to withstand extremist violence.

    White supremacy is the enemy of democracy.

    Seems pretty clear many of them already have their own truth & are not interested in any other kind..

    trump is gone & fox is slowly slipping away from the trump trough but he'll be back..

    He has had many opportunities to speak truth to their power but he does not, proud boys stand

    This is not the first or prb the last time these kinda haters have shown their ugly heads, & I believe the government is prepared to deal w/ them going forward...
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Another whiner with absolutely nothing to say.

    Her solution?

    Confront fascism.

    What the hell does that even mean in real terms?

    What a dumb broad.
