En réponse à ce tweet, j'ai eu énormément de réponses "oui mais c'est malhonnête, sur 30 ans ça a fait 500 % d'augmentation"...

Ce qui n'est absolument pas pertinent dans le cadre du débat sur le système de retraites, désolé. Un thread pour expliquer pourquoi. https://t.co/xIvjHHg0pG

> Nice people made the best Nazis. Or so I've been told. My mother was born in Munich in 1934, and spent her childhood in Nazi Germany surrounded by nice people who refused to make waves. When things got ugly, the people my mother lived alongside chose not to focus on "politics", instead busying themselves with happier things. They were lovely, kind people who turned their heads as their neighbours were dragged away... You know who weren't nice people? Resisters.

“Hitler's Enabling Act (1933) let his cabinet bypass parliament while claiming to ‘save democracy.’

Yesterday's Executive Order lets White House control all independent agencies while claiming to ‘restore democracy.’

They're not even changing the playbook. It couldn't be more obvious but they're disguising it all in democratic language to fool lesser civically-minded citizens.

See the comparison below between yesterday's EO and The Enabling Act.”
