HITLER:
What we are proposing -
CHURCHILL:

7
HITLER:
Let me finish - what we are proposing eez a simple power-sharing arrangement -
8
CHURCHILL:
What's he doing here
BBC PRESENTER:
It's important we hear both sides of the debate

CHURCHILL:
This isn't a debate
You don't debate fascists
10
HITLER:
Oh here we go with ze Godwins law!
11
HITLER:

SEPTEMBER TABLE TOP GAMES
Slower month than last playing table top games with @colplaysgames.bsky.social but we haven’t had annual leave to give us time to play and I’ve had a horrible and persistent attack of the ick so energy and ability to play hasn’t been there.

It's honestly bizarre. We read picture books to our kids, then at an arbitrary point expect them to stop being interested in the pictures

“Ah," said Mr Pin. "Right. I remember. You are concerned citizens." He knew about concerned citizens. Wherever they were, they all spoke the same private language, where 'traditional values' meant 'hang someone'.

‘I’m not far right but I went to a rally organised by Tommy Robinson’ is a pretty unconvincing position.

Two truths may dwell together. One may weep for loss while still naming evil as evil.
Compassion for those left behind is just, but sanctifying the cruel as heroes is folly. History is not rewritten at the grave.
We must speak both truths. The humanity of death and the inhumanity of deeds.

To *finally* have a mainstream political voice standing up for racialised & minoritised communities being intimidated by the violent fash on our streets
It's really not that hard, is it?
