We practiced with caskets that were stored outside our barracks building. To simulate the weight of honored remains, weโ€™d toss several full sandbags into the belly of the casket and then, for hours, weโ€™d go through our exact movements. Over and over and over. (thread)

As Elizabeth Bibesco, a British writer in Hitlerโ€™s time, put it: โ€œThe Nazi regime benefits from the fact that its atrocities overstep the limits of credibility.โ€ The same is true for MAGA. We either face the reality or the reality will bury us. 5/5
