"Fascism is more fragile than it appears on the surface."

It wasn't just Jews who were killed. Of course there were those who thought differently and those who resisted, but they were also sought out in order to kill them. Moreover, such events can never be compared with previous events due to technological progress. So we see the future of drones in Ukraine and we see globally how much is being invested in AI. The means that can also be used for oppression are taking on proportions of progress that could mean the downfall of humanity very fast. In America, they are now taking action against education, which is the most powerful weapon.

I'm a former Jehovah's Witness, so I'm well aware of the other groups targeted by the Nazis.

As for technology, they just put on a display of how well they use it. Signal can't fix dumb. This will always happen, and it will always be an opportunity to exploit.

Fortunately, the technology is still a long way from having access to all the knowledge via BCI. But I am a pessimistic optimist and think that if fascism takes over globally, they will want to trigger the boss fight as quickly as possible (since they love oil etc. and are against climate neutrality) and then everyone will die anyway.
