Now that the fascists have taken over, what books, academic studies, and pieces of knowledge should take priority in personal/private archival? I’m thinking about what happened in Nazi Germany, especially with the burning of the Institute for Sexual Science(Institut für Sexualwissenschaft) and what was lost completely in the burnings.
Some of us should consider saving stuff digitally or physically. Redundancies will help preserve stuff.
Archive is on American soil. They got sued for lending ebooks during the pandemic and lost, so they are not a safe bet. Archive elsewhere. Anywhere else.
They really should relocate to Europe.
Fuck, are we really becoming the last beacon of freedom and liberty?
One of the few left.
As always
The first half of the last century clearly says otherwise
That was 90 years ago boomer
So… in the first half of the last century?
So always = recently
Didn’t know Switzerland wasn’t a democracy… Or UK.
We will have to fight for it though. At this rate we will have to vote down chat control yearly for the next century, and Macron and Scholz are not infinitely better than the US dems either.
At least now, they see that immediate rearmament and asserting ourselves as an economic and geopolitic power is a necessity, even if our industry doesn’t feel like it and never wants to change.
Shure we have to fight it and I’m Damm well defending my freedom.
Germany would like a word…
The most Democratic of all.
I really hope you were being ironic
Current Germany is more democratic than most other countries…
