On the one hand, we do have AC in European nations. On the other hand, the memes that's been coming out of the recent EU-idiocy et c are great!

And the Trump-memes are perfectly savage - his fan club in the USA needs them, I think. Far too much "Trump is playing XD chess, just trust the plan". Funny thing about that:

That is exactly how Germany was run from 1936-1945. Trust the plan was called "Führerprinzip" and it meant the Führer could do no wrong or contradict himself or ever went back on a promise - whatever it was, it was part of the plan.

Some Germans believed this even when the Russians were crossing the Oder. Some Americans seem to believe it despite the number of Indians, South Americans and so on that are arriving daily.

Speaking of, the Roosevelt-quote is a great one, and should always be brought up when someone rattles off the tired Grosse Lüge about the "melting pot"; what Roosevelt said was the real idea of a melting pot-society: you become American and divests yourself of all other identities and loyalties, else there is no nation no more.

We could all do with following his words.

And just to do a double-Godwin: Roosevelt's quote about one nation, one culture, one language, one people?

Heavily inspired German and Italian nationalists in the 1910s and 1920s. Oh my, sau-cee!
