Whether we recognize fascism in time depends on how quickly and how well we learn to recognize propaganda. Our survival as a free society now rests on the vigilance of citizens, not the virtue of leaders.

Don’t let them scare you.

Don’t let them get you to give up hope.

This is what they want more than anything.

Their evil is never more alive than when we sleep.

Every time you see someone powerful acting like a craven coward in the face of this authoritarian menace, let it stiffen your own spine. We are all we've got.
