    Because you would refuse you would not be the one asked to do this order. You have a functioning conscience, which makes you unqualified for such a position.

      Well, I’m from Germany. Fortunately, our terrible history is still taught in every school here - in pretty much all its horrible detail.

      That’s why it’s important to me to warn US citizens before it’s too late. I’m not so sure I would be courageous enough to stand up against such atrocities if I had to face deportation to an extermination camp, as I would have in Hitler’s time - please don’t do as the Germans did and fight back while you still can.

      I mean there’s a world of difference between posting something somewhat critical on social media and actually having to fear consequences for life and limb. This is only for the really brave. I’m not so sure I’d be one of them if it really came down to it.

      Don’t let it get that far in the first place!
