Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

My only issue is that the expression on the statue looks fairly calm. The lady in the photo is fuckin PISSED.

I love this photo so much. It’s such a shame that the neo-Nazis are in parliament now.

The fact that, even with the advent of digital records, humanity seems incapable of retaining the lessons of history gives me a a pessimistic outlook for our future.

It only took a single human lifespan for fascism to be on the rise again in Germany, and for their former victims to be undertaking their own final solution.

Same goes for the Great Depression here in the US, only took 50 years for the Reagan Revolution to hand all the power right back to the avarice ruled profiteer class to thunderous American applause, and many still act confused as to why that's a catastrophe, as if bread lines and children/seniors literally starving to death in the streets, and yes we're barreling back to that, was some kind of a fairy tale.

Expelled, huh? I didn't know you could expel people from cities. How does that work?

It's quite a common tactic by police in sweden to take anyone from from nazis to "that dude looks shady"-folks in a van and drive them out of town so they'd have to travel for a while to get back.

That sounds surprising similar to starlight tours… are they similarly abused?
