A history lesson from the 1930s: massive unrest in Germany, fallout from the Treaty of Versailles, etc etc. The Nazis and Hitler are on the rise. There is violence in the street between the Communist Party of Germany (KDP) and the Nazis AND the Social Democrats (SDP). Each . . .
Has their own paramilitary arm; KDP's is the Antifaschistische Aktion, commonly known as Antifa, Nazi's have the Brownshirts, the SDP has the Iron Front. There is continual violence and upheaval in the streets. It is basic human nature to desire peace, prosperity & stability. . .
So at some point people choose whoever will bring peace and stability. The German people chose the Nazis and Hitler; short term stability, long term deal with the devil that eventually crushed the nation. If the Weimar Republic had acted like adults, enforcing rule of law. . .
with political leaders that showed courage, that all might've been avoided. We can't ignore the fact to that the German people at the time were very divided. So a divided people & gutless political leaders. The question I have for the American people is what do you really want?
If Republicans in charge in the WH & Senate don't stand up firmly to the lawless violence and rioting we see in the streets, we can almost be assured, by history, that it will all give rise to the worst elements of society from both the Right and the Left. There is no compromise.
