Comment on Judges Grow Angry Over Trump Administration Violating Their Orders

And it is exactly that appeasing, that non-accountability, which enables perpetually-moving-the-goal-posts, perpetually-escalating, until the complete-dictatorship-tippingpoint is crossed.
IF accuntability won’t be enforced, THEN it isn’t actual/significant/real.
No matter: nobody’ll believe that it’s actual until it’s too-late, & the mass-murder has begun.
There’s a survivor of Auschwitz in the documentary “Anne Franke Remembered”, who said that in the Jewish enclave, in the Netherlands, every time the nazis made a new rule, the Jews said to themselves “it’s just one more thing”, & ignored it…
again & again…
until the nazis made a rule that the Jews weren’t allowed to go anywhere, anymore.
Then they knew it was Too Late™.
This is simply history doing the same fundamental-thing, again.
Nobody’ll learn, though, so it’ll never be prevented.
Nobody’ll learn.
As East Germany demonstrated, once it is too-late, then sycophanting to the authority-institution becomes the only means of ingratiating oneself with the new-regime.
The majority of East Germans were snitching in order to be ingratiating themselves with the regime/institution.
Exactly that’ll be happening in Trump’s dictatorship in the US.
This year, later. ( 2026, for people in future years )
All this could have been prevented, but party-politics/ideology vetoed that opportunity.
All part of The Great Filter.
Exactly like an addict preferring chemically-enforced-oblivion to responsibility, humankind preferring legalism-proven-nonresponsibility over the belonging-violating-horror of actual-integrity.
Human-nature’ll not change, in my lifetime.
