Reply #17: To ignore the comparison is to be in danger of repeating it

[LordshipLadyship]

Ask someone whose memory of the Holocaust is embedded in their soul as deeply as the tattooed number on their skin. Ask someone who actually somehow survived it if the comparison is apt. It's the old duck thing. If it waddles like a duck and it quacks like a duck...etc. Loyality oaths. Fascism wrapped snugly in the flag. Snipping away our rights. Forcing their morality down our throat. If there is just a sliver of justification for comparison, then we ought to do just what we are doing, speaking up. We're stopping evil before it gets to the point that it did back then.
