after WW2 and the horrors of the Nazis came fully to light....people kept asking....how did the German people let this happen? how did they let it continue until disaster fell? how could they have allowed such cruelty and degradation to occur?

THIS was how. by not paying attention. by ignoring the growing inequities and terror going on in their midst. BY PRETENDING EVERYTHING WAS OK.

and now WE are doing the same. it's easy to ignore right now....it isn't TOO bad....not TOO many people are being affected...yet.

we need to stop ignoring and start paying attention to exactly what they are doing.
