🧵I hate that I have to talk about this. I hate that this is where we’re at. But no one is raising the right alarm: not our leaders, not our media, and not enough people here on Twitter.
We are quickly approaching 1930s Germany, and I refuse to pretend we can’t see it. /1

After WWII, German pastor Martin Niemöller spoke about what he considered his complicity at the start of Hitler’s regime. You might have read this quote before…

Lawmakers have introduced bills that would ban IVF and allow law enforcement to track women’s pregnancies, to prosecute women who even consider abortion.
We know they won’t stop at women’s rights. Just look at the terms they want to ban. It’s page 4 in Project 2025. /3

Reading this, I want to know how anyone could believe that BANNING WORDS is how you protect freedom of speech (i.e. "First Amendment rights”). /4

To be clear, this threat is coming from the very top of the Republican Party, NOT from every Republican politician and certainly not most Republican voters.
It’s coming from the extremist groups that played the long game and took over the GOP like Hitler took over Germany. /7
