I guess "fascist regime" is a reference to Trump here? If so it's hard for me to take the author seriously. My grandparents survived actual fascist regime (Nazi Germany occupation during WW2), and my parents grew up in authoritarian puppet states of USSR. Trump doesn't get anywhere close to what my people went through in 20th century, and it's pretty insulting for me when people make this comparisons.
- lzaaz 4y agoThat caught my eye too, I guess she's an inmigrant from some country in Europe or whatever? But there aren't any European countries with fascist regimes currently. It makes no sense whatsoever. Probably hyperbole of the bad kind. Americans have the luxury of not having had to live under a fascist regime and it shows.

- tokai 4y agoGet out of here. Are you seriously going to gate keep authoritarianism? So you are not allowed to complain before millions of people are dead? And the 'my people went through in 20th century', because only a few select people can claim to have been effected by a literal world war right? What you're gps went through doesn't automatically give you any special insight. Are you sure that rachelbythebay also doesn't have some gps whos suffering she can virtue signal with? Maybe they suffered even more than yours.
