I am sick of the bullshit argument, "That cant happen here." The only way it doesn't happen is if good people raise their voices.
But what if I make the argument that it can't happen here exactly because I take into account the overwhelming likelihood of good people raising their voices? The country is polarized, and that shows up as resistance from the electorate, the press, the legal system, and the halls of Congress.
