Silence is consent.

There is a lot of silence within the Republican Party and the masses in general. They are either confused or they are in agreement with the autocratic march this country is on.

We cannot assume that they are opposed to the attack upon our freedoms. If anything, we should assume the opposite.

There is no silent majority. When the majority feels they are under attack, they speak up. They are not silent.

When atrocities are being committed, it is not the time to be silent.

In my opinion, the vast number of Americans are silent.

Are we the land of "good Germans"?

The vast majority of the populace is entirely uninformed of the autocratic journey we're on.
Somehow we have to change that.
