Why I keep harping on this: fascism requires people getting inured to outrage. Fascists want you to see things that should make you angry and just shrug. When you do, they can get away with more and more. There was a time, not very long ago, when the world saw what the nazis were doing and just shrugged. "What do you expect? They're nazis!"

Don't require yourself to be surprised in order to be outraged. You should be outraged by the outrageous. Refuse to let the Overton Window shift.
