The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Trump will generate genuine terror.

President "I am your retribution" Trump has a familiar ring to it. Black shirt or brown? He envied Bolsonaro, Duterte, Xi, Putin style strongman authoritarianism.
That authoritarian approach appeals to the orange cult that is evangelically willing to 'eradicate' certain segments of the US population, aka scapegoating.
Being one generation removed from a Viennese anti-Nazi street fighting family, the similarity to the process of shunning and legislating against specific segments of society is concerning.
It wasn't just Jews from my families neighborhood that were first shunned, then legislated against, then killed. Everybody on this board knows well how the Hitler and his thugs were welcomed, with open arms, into Austria. A shameful blot on Austria and now, the US.
