Now that the fascists have taken over, what books, academic studies, and pieces of knowledge should take priority in personal/private archival? I’m thinking about what happened in Nazi Germany, especially with the burning of the Institute for Sexual Science(Institut für Sexualwissenschaft) and what was lost completely in the burnings.

Some of us should consider saving stuff digitally or physically.

    I get the sentiment, but in this time and age and with the internet, I think the information most likely to be at risk of being destroyed or censored is the one that is not commonly available, or in the hands of law enforcement.

    A fascist government will more likely effectively prevent creation of new dissenting works, than suppressing existing ones.
