I am glad I was neither flamed nor downvoted to oblivion. Had I wrote this some days ago I certainly would have been. (Not aimed at you specifically).

I feel many people think this happening is Hitler invading Checkoslovakia were he should have been stopped with the benefit of hindsight. There is no reason to believe history has to be repeating it self. A fair warning, yes. A profetia, no.

I don't know what we should do, but take it chill and cold is one of those things.

You shouldn’t censor yourself because of meaningless internet points. Getting downvoted doesn’t hurt, I promise.

Ye but if you get downvoted enough your post is effectively censored (greyed out, collapsed and at the buttom).

Seems like the initial anger is being replaced with fear among people, which gives room for cold reasoning. A good thing I guess ...

That is what I meant with I was glad I was not downvoted.
