One of the few positive aspects of this era in American history is that it's super-easy to identify the villains.

Weird!

I’m not sure I have many modern parallels. Japanese internment? Treatment of French-Algerians in the Algerian war? Those were wartime.

Donald Trump claims to be "Pro-Life." Indeed, he was the first sitting president to attend the annual March for Life.
But this didn't stop him from conspiring with Elon Musk to kill 600,000 (so far) people, 2/3 of them children. You see, when Elon says we need more children he means *white* ones.
