Never

“The nose of the bulldog has been slanted backwards so that he can breathe without letting go.” —1905

Target Practice with Ike, an Actual President

“You cannot tell from appearances how things will go. Sometimes imagination makes things out far worse than they are; yet without imagination not much can be done. Those people who are imaginative see many more dangers than perhaps exist; certainly many more than will happen; but then they must also pray to be given that extra courage to carry this far-reaching imagination. But for everyone, surely, what we have gone through in this period – I am addressing myself to the School – surely from this period…this is the lesson: 

Never give in, never give in, never, never, never-in nothing, great or small, large or petty – never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy. We stood all alone a year ago, and to many…it seemed that our account was closed, we were finished. All this tradition of ours, our songs, our… history, this part of the history of this country, were gone and finished and liquidated.

Do not let us speak of darker days: let us speak rather of sterner days. These are not dark days; these are great days – the greatest days our country has ever lived; and we must all thank God that we have been allowed, each of us according to our stations, to play a part in making these days memorable in the history of our race."--Winston Churchill, 1941

Law against Overcrowding | Holocaust Sources in Context (ushmm.org)

“After passing antisemitic legislation to purge Jewish faculty from German universities in early April 1933, Nazi authorities continued the process of removing Jews from public life by targeting Jewish students. The “Law against Overcrowding in Schools and Universities” passed on April 25, 1933 set strict limitations on the number of Jewish students permitted to attend both public and private schools and universities.

The featured document captures a meeting of Nazi officials voicing their enthusiasm for the law while also expressing concern that it might spark negative publicity abroad. In addition to Reich Interior Minister Wilhelm Frick, those present in the meeting included Hitler’s representative Franz von Papen, Minister President of Prussia Hermann Göring, Reich Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels, and Reich Minister of Finance Lutz Graf Schwerin von Krosigk. Frick opened the session by presenting an extended justification for the law. He described it as necessary to restore the health of the German people, helping them to prioritize the interests of the German national community, or Volk.”…….

In fairness, the Universities were already purging, banning, censoring and de-personing conservatives before the first cough was ever heard, mein NippleFuhrer.
