Americans would you consider wearing a Guy Fawks mask on election day? (reddthat.com)

Not an American, but I just noticed that the election day is on the 5th of November. Given the similarities between Trump and the chancellor, it seems like a good opportunity to remind people what is coming if they vote for Trump.

For those who haven't watched V for Vendetta, do it, the reference will make sense.

Remember, remember, the 5th of November,

Gunpowder, treason and plot.

I see no reason

Why gunpowder treason

Should ever be forgot.

Most people in America have no idea who Guy Fawkes was.

V for Vendetta was very popular when it came out and I think most of us would recognize the mask.

When I see it, the first thing I think of is Anonymous, not Guy Fawkes or V for Vendetta.
