I'm honestly surprised it lasted this long / hasn't been vandalised before.

I think the whole thing as is (vandalised and all) should be put in a museum. History is not linear or static. We actively create and engage in history each day. Vandalising and pulling down these statues is not erasing history but rather contributing to it. If the statue gets cleaned and fixed then that is arguably an act of historical erasure.
Fuck yeah Germany!
This would likely mean my country's (Australia) biggest trading partner going to war with our biggest ally (USA). We're also close to this conflict geographically speaking so would likely play a key role in it. Honestly this conflict would really fuck our economy and make the entire region more unstable than it already is.
So I'd be quite concerned if this happened. It would destroy my country and be yet another reminder of how we are tied to the USA and will literally follow it to our own destruction.
Can we please just have a good ending with this one where the Germans protest the nazis out of town. The world kind of needs this right now. Please Germany, show us that anti-fascist resistance is possible and history is not doomed to repeat itself forever.
I've been wanting to read his work for ages! Thanks for the recommendation, looks like a good one to start with.
Human rights apply to everyone regardless of whether they engage in crime.
More war. Not necessarily WW3 but an increase in the number of proxy type conflicts.
They should take the third season over to FX.
The recent BtB episode about him hit me so hard. I feel like I relate a lot to Swartz because I really value knowledge. The episode ultimately made me feel hopeful but with a deep underpinning of sadness. The point Margret and Robert made about his death being a turning point really stood out to me.
His whole life story explains everything already. The drugs are just the icing on the cake.
Yeah 100%. You can see the change just in gen z's attitudes towards this. The rallies are also getting bigger each year.
