Today, 27 February, it is 90 years ago that the Reichstag was set on fire. The fire was exploited by the Nazi leadership to allege that Communists were organizing a violent rebellion. They called for urgent legislation that eliminated constitutional safeguards. The next day, the Reichstag Fire Decree was implemented, paving the path for the Nazi dictatorship.
I think European leaders and the USA with Biden have learned their lessons. Today most of them are supporting Zelinsky and the people of Ukraine against not a powerful fascist dictator but rather a disturbed and violent psychopath. I watched a documentary about resistance work on the ground in Ukraine providing intelligence to Ukrainian armed forces by regular Ukrainian people, a taxi driver, a sales man and a bar tender, two men and a woman. In Iran women have started and are leading a brave revolution and resistance against the Iranian regime. Again violent psychopaths, using religion as an excuse, emboldened by traditional and biological weapons. That’s what psychopaths do, they love the word fascist, socialist and communist. It’s their only mean to hook people besides terror. During WWII fascists and nazists raped women who had parted with “communists”, and communists partisans raped women who had helped fascists. It sounds to me that both these violent groups have a desperate need for power, just like Russians raped women in Ukraine. Psychopaths’ behavior doesn’t change, their choice of weapon may as technology advances. They will always use politics and religion as an excuse. I think the sooner we stop addressing our issues as fascism and or communism or socialism, the sooner we are able to concentrate on what matters, freedom and our planet. But that’s just my opinion. I suspect Hitler loved the movie because psychopaths are usually narcissists, just like Putin and his obsession of recreating an empire.
I question my former education everyday! Was not aware that the Reichstag was the home of the German Parliament.
Now it comes together as all over the world we continue to fight Fascism. When informed, we can respond accordingly. Thank you, Alexander, for these three recent “anniversary” articles. Well done! 🌍🕊️
How close we came in 2020! We aren’t out of the woods yet. This article brought home how close we came and how we must continue to resist with everything we’ve got. Thanks for the reminder. ❤️🙏🏼❤️
