Dan Arrows does some really interesting stuff about Germany, and fascism, from an actual German perspective. I find his view to be accurate within my existing understanding of history, and his perspective is valuable.
It’s really sad how many Americans put stock in their so-called “Democracy.” First, it’s controlled from the beginning by the corrupt two party system, then there’s a layer of voter suppression, filtered through the electoral college (more voter suppression) and a huge cloud of lies and media.

Field-expedient repairs are sometimes expected. You haven’t got all the gear to make a proper fix, so you log a maintenance report saying something like, “I did not have the correct threaded bolt to replace it correctly, so I forced the wrong bolt on to the nut with a pipe-wrench, just to hold the thing together until we got home.”

Here we go, again.
