The failure of Americans to learn from history destines them to repeat it.
The stealth attacks on public education and the parental support of the dumbing
down, the elevation of sports to a podium of importance [Roman Coliseum?],
the support for intolerance and racism, the condemnation and persecution
of 'groups,' the unnoticed corporate sacrifice of free press reminiscent of Nazi
Germany, yet commonly employed by tyrannical regimes throughout history.
Much of the conduct defined by the words of Martin Niemöller:
According to the Martin-Niemöller-Foundation the text is as follows[2]:
First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.
Allowing ourselves to be manipulated by fear and emotions, sacrifices reason
and careful consideration.
Pounding their chests like gorillas, Republicans have proclaimed widespread
voter fraud in an attempt to disenfranchise voters as they have historically done,
forced to distance themselves from Strategic Allied Consulting because of none
other than VOTER FRAUD.

Disenfranchising the voter and fixing elections is but another common tactic
of tyrants.
Ignore it at your peril!
