Archival in a Fascist regime (lemmy.world)

Reposted from Lemmy.worlds c/politics because of violation of its rule 1.

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. Redundancies will help preserve stuff.

You think the US is fascist just now because the orange dude got in?? Oh do I have news for you! The US has been a fascist shithole for a long, long time!

But if you really care for archiving books, 🏴‍☠️pirates🏴‍☠️ and 🚩socialists🚩 are your friends. Anna's archive has an FAQ on how you can help, for other projects look towards LibGen, z-library and SciHub.
