Yep. The Germans coined a nice term, critically: Vorauseilender Gehorsam - pre-emptive obedience. Don't do it.
Sometimes not doing it may cost you. When the society is in terminal stage, that is.
When everyone does "preemptive obedience", just not doing it and politely asking "ok, but who you are, please provide some identification and such, or at least explain me how you are different from a random person demanding it, I don't know who you are and why are you demanding this" might cause dangerous levels of fury in someone who is not a random person, unfortunately, just treats a request for their correct identification (which they would be able to provide) and reasons as an insult.
To not let it reach that level, you shouldn't, yes.
Actually maybe we will have a period of history when Germans save everyone from tyranny. I've read they are thinking of returning conscription and are growing military industries rapidly. Maybe for a good cause this time. Should be their turn. LOL.
Nowhere did they say "fascism" is a German word.
A comical level of projection.
Why are you correcting people for something they didn’t say?
How did you manage to misinterpret such a short comment so badly? Go reread it. Seriously. You'll see just how idiotic your response here is
I know it's not what you're saying, probably, but just to be clear: It wasn't a good thing going just fine until the Germans took it too far. It sucked in Italy, too, and is always bad.
The black knight always triumphs!
Are you some weird bot or do you just have issues reading? They said Fascists are bad and have always been bad, including Nazis but also those before them.
Nah, your "teachers" are.
Save the world, hurt a bully today!

Isn't this the exact reason Americans have so many guns, to oppose tyranny at the hands of the state? Funny how the most vehemently anti-gun control people are the same ones clapping and cheering as government thugs bundle people into detention centers without warrants.
Because having a gun for fun or feeling of superiority is morally easier than having it as part of citizen's duty.
Makes sense. Maybe should call people of the same political opinions to some responsibility so that they'd arm themselves.
