Here Comes Fascism!

So we've all heard about the possible resurrection of the highly ineffective but most importantly fascist Muslim registry by the Trump administration. That is an incredibly fucked up thing by itself and needs to be fought at all costs especially by those of us who didn't fight it the first time around.

But did you know that there are more lists being made of particular types of people? It's not as bad as targeting a specific and marginalized religious group, but so far we have:

• An attempt to make a list of scientists who worked on climate change issues for the Department of Energy. Thankfully the department said "no" because "what the fuck." Okay they didn't actually say that but... well maybe they did, how would I know?
• A website by a conservative organization called Professor Watchlist has been launched  and dedicated to providing the full names, locations, and often photographs, as well as a list of "offenses" for each person. Why? Because they're professors, and therefore liberal, I guess.

Should I be worried? I mean, has anything bad ever happened after lists were made of academics and/or scientists?
