Another quote. As it relates to fascism, democracy, and humanity.
Voting as Fire Extinguisher
When a haunted house catches fire:
a moment of indecision.
The house was, after all, built on bones,
and blood, and bad intentions.
Everyone who enters the house feels
that overwhelming dread, the evil
that perhaps only fire can purge.
It’s tempting to just let it burn.
And then I remember:
there are children inside.
- Kyle Tran Myhre
Reminds me of when Rick Steves describes the conditions under which Hitler gained power following post WW1 despair. |
