@Billyjensen @stowleopard Funnily enough, Billy, both my British and French male ancestors fought as well, but I'm aware there's a certain kind of American who struggles to remember they aren't the only nation on earth. Anyway, do keep tweeting against fascism. It's making all the difference.

@jk_rowling @stowleopard Wasn't born yet for the Blitz, Jo. My grandfather however, did come over and fight to preserve your country's freedom against (checks notes) fascism.

@stowleopard @Billyjensen Well, thank God Billy Jensen's over there tweeting about baseball. If only we'd had him during the Blitz.

@jk_rowling @Billyjensen There is no excuse for you to be ignorant about what is going on in America at the moment. It is fascism and it’s very scary. It’s not the only country where fascism is emerging. A major concern for all of us.

@Billyjensen ‘Fighting fascism.’ It must be so hard in the trenches, knee deep in mud, bullets flying all around you. It’s great you still find time to tweet, though.

The statement is part of a broader conversation about historical contributions to fighting fascism, with a focus on personal ancestry. It does not substantively engage with public issues or policies, but rather shares personal family history in response to a discussion about national contributions during wartime.
