I think Germany has done a much better job than America, and faster, of endeavoring to fix its mistakes; it did not take 100 years to adddress the nightmare of the Holocaust, and it is kept alive; talk about national guilt, but no students in Germany are allowed to forget it. Unlike here, where most young people never heard of it. What was done to Jews and other marginalized groups was never sidestepped, or allowed to fade. Which is all the more dire considering the appalling wave of anti-semitism that's been revealed in the US that did not begin at elite college campuses on Oct 8. Watching the president of MIT unable to hide her distaste for Jews is a moment not soon forgotten.
And I believe you are correct that Donnie Boy will not prevail and destroy our democracy, his autocratic ravings will be seen as pathetic, but he couldn't have made it this far without the white supremacy major dollars that have fueled his rise. He is too lazy, and stupid. And they have infiltrated all levels of government, most distressingly the judiciary. The Supreme Court is a sick joke. Congress is a circus; they are going to impeach Biden and waste everyone's time and money at the wrong time. He has left a legacy of untruth, violence, polarization that will not be stilled when he is put away (please). Nor will Blacks, or any lower classes, find equity; in fact, the middle class is a dream squashed under the imbalance of pay of CEOs, and how workers can no longer survive oon what they are paid. There is much to repair to find our way back to a solid democracy, and we can only hope the shitshow that will be 2024 finally causes people to begin to vote out the people standing in its way.
