Warning! Strong language.

Last night was full of anger and sadness for both of us as we read the threads.

We grew up in families broken/affected by the Second World War and we treat any sign of nazism as something to be eradicated and not tolerated. It's obvious that anyone who doesn't see a problem (a big fucking problem) in a nazi salute in their Capitol is a nazi, including those who dismiss the signs and pretend that everything is going to be better.

We still have concentration camps in Poland (thankfully only as a reminder), we both lived near mass graves left by nazis, we know from our grandparents and great-grandparents what a nightmare it was, so when we see any kind of solidarity or denial of the facts, there is nothing that can be said or done to remedy it.
There is a saying that goes something like this: If you go to the bar that serves nazis and you sit there because the drinks are cheap, the music is good or you like the place, you're one of the nazis.

A lot of people died fighting against nazism and fascism, a lot of people are still suffering from the consequences of war and oppression, NOT FOR SOME FUCKING MORONS TO GET A FUCKING TASTE FOR THIS IDEOLOGY 90 years later.

For fuck's sake, do we even have to write this? WTF?

And that's not political talk, that's life talk. Does this place tolerate such views? Our log doesn't, we hope Darebee doesn't.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me — and there was no one left to speak for me.


- Martin Niemöller

For all affected, stay strong, stay vigilant, stay safe!

"Striving to be the change."
Dear @Antheia & Colossus ,

All I can offer you today is words.

I am a writer. I think I have a fairly high skill level with words. (In English, at least.) I understand the power of words. And yet they seem so trivial in the face of what your families have suffered. This being said, I am committed to not giving up. I am committed to doing what I can to be a force for good in our world. Even when what I can do is so very, very tiny. So, for whatever they are worth, I offer you my words:

I am deeply, deeply sorry for the pain, the loss, the atrocities experienced by you and your families.

Since three years of age I have lived in Canada--a country which is far from perfect, but where I have thus far enjoyed a life largely sheltered from the darker deeds of humanity. My ancestors lived in England during WWII, including my parents who were alive at that time but small children. Their memories of the war--at least the ones they shared with me--seemed to have been largely related to food rations. My mother was separated from her father for a time, as he was deployed to Myanmar (then Burma). She was so young when he left, I don't think she had any memories of missing him. Though she did remember his return home when she was four years old, a stranger who she needed to get to know as her father. My paternal grandfather was too old to be deployed during WWII (he served in the Home Guard) and too young to be deployed during WWI. His elder brother lied about his age in order to be accepted to fight in WWI, and he died in battle.

Clearly the direct impact on my ancestors of those times was very far removed from what your ancestors experienced. So I will not pretend to understand your experiences growing up nor the extent to which you may be feeling anger, sadness, or fear now when you look out on the world and see people forgetting the mistakes of our past. But I want you to know that I see you. I feel your pain (in so far as I am able to). And I will stand with you in speaking up and speaking out when I see people being hurt--regardless of whether or not those people include me.

DAREBEE is not a political forum. Politics does come up here from time to time, because we write about our lives here, and the political landscape very much affects all of our lives. But our mission here in the Hive is to support one another in our fitness and health journeys.

Mental health is a part of health. An important part of it. Which is why you will see me from time to time posting messages of support for people who I know are hurting. I will not be silenced by those who feel threatened by my messages of support!

I will save my more direct political actions for other venues which are better equipped to support them. But please rest assured: I am speaking out. And I am constantly searching for ways in which to do so most effectively. I believe many people here are.

Thank you both for being a part of our community, and for sharing your experiences and your support.

I lost family to both. My mother's father survived but lost almost his entire family to the camps, my father's mother was in Canada during the war but every single relative of hers that stayed in Poland ended up in one of those graves.

Thank you for saying exactly what you said.
