3rdnlng Posted May 5, 2020 Posted May 5, 2020 This is a very sad, sobering image. This 17-year-old girl chose to die rather than accept Socialism and name her anti-Nazi associates in February of 1943. . Every kid in the USA should see this photo and be taught about this girl's fate and the choices she made. Her answer to the Nazi Socialists who offered to free her and not hang her if she gave up the names of her fellow fighters was ~ "You will know them when they come to avenge me." ▪︎ First came economic collapse in the 1920's.▪︎ Then came the rise of Socialism on a national model.▪︎ Then began oppression of those deemed the cause of the economic collapse.▪︎ Then the socialists banned personal firearms because the socialists intended to do something they feared the people would not want and would be willing to fight against.▪︎ Then came the nooses. There is a term the survivors used at the end. "Nie Wieder" Never Again. The term is still relevant today. The only difference between socialists today and socialists then is [WHAT] ? We've seen how devastating a medical crisis can be even to a strong economy. Our economy teeters on the brink... We need to remember the lessons of HISTORY. Seventeen-year-old Lepa Radić was a Bosnian Serb who fought with the partisans during WWII, but she never got to see the Nazis lose the war. In February 1943, Lepa was captured. The Nazis tied a rope around her neck, but offered her a way out. All she had to do was reveal her comrades' and her leaders' identities. Lepa responded: “You will know them when they come to avenge me.” THIS is why we need HISTORY to live on and to leave it alone.▪︎ HISTORY helps us become.▪︎ HISTORY helps us evolve.▪︎ HISTORY let's us never forget. This brave girl deserves to be remembered . SHE DESERVES THE IMMORTALITY OF HISTORY. This is why the teaching of history is so important in our schools. If our history is whitewashed then there are no reasons for our children to recognize and cherish what has come before us. 1 4 5
Tiberius Posted May 17, 2020 Posted May 17, 2020 Quote (CNN)The US Navy has granted a waiver allowing a transgender service member to serve "in their preferred gender" for the first time since the military enacted a transgender ban. "The acting Secretary of the Navy has approved a specific request for exemption related to military service by transgender persons and persons with gender dysphoria," Navy spokeswoman Lt. Brittany Stephens told CNN. Stephens added that "this service member requested a waiver to serve in their preferred gender, to include obtaining a gender marker change in (the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System) and being allowed to adhere to standards associated with their preferred gender, such as uniforms and grooming." The GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders and the National Center for Lesbian Rights said Friday that the waiver was granted to their client, a Naval officer who filed a lawsuit in March against the ban. The anonymous Naval officer had served two extended tours of duty over nine years and was facing involuntary discharge because she's transgender, according to the complaint. https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/14/politics/navy-first-waiver-transgender/index.html

If our history is whitewashed then there are no reasons for our children to recognize and cherish what has come before us. Unfortunately, the agenda of public schools for approximately the last 40 years has been to preach the gospel of communism. That anybody badmouthing the regimes of Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Castro, etc. are liars. I wish I could say that I would be too old to care or dead by the time it arrived here in earnest but I will probably be around for a few more decades in all likelihood.
