Who Goes Nazi?, by Dorothy Thompson

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later.

The β€œproblem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Infographic titled 'Death Spiral: Republicans' Medicaid Cuts Threaten the Health Care of All Americansβ€”even People on Private Insurance.' It outlines five impacts: 1) Millions could lose insurance, 2) Hospitals close, 3) Communities lose health care services, 4) Entire counties lose hospitals, 5) Significant revenue loss for rural hospitals. The background is dark with red and white text and icons representing hospitals, people, and medical services.

On February 3, 2010, argentine president Cristina Kirchner fired the head of the central bank, setting off a 15 year spiral of inflation that would eventually peak last year at 220%.

Let's say, on that day, you bought lunch for $20 argentine pesos. Today, that same lunch would cost you $4,156 pesos

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

This Empire Strikes Back fascist energy isn't going to play well in the United States. This isn't 1930's Europe. Yes, some non-insignificant percentage of Americans wants this, but the vast majority of us do not. We are repelled by it. And repelled by Stephen Miller.

DHS is recruiting using a not-so-subtle reference to a 1978 book from white nationalist William Gayley Simpson, Which Way Western Man?

Simpson's book was released under an imprint associated with the National Alliance, founded by Turner Diaries author William Luther Pierce.

Green Beret Anthony Agular recounts how a 5-year-old Palestinian kissed his hands to thank him for the food Agular gave him

Seconds later, Israeli soldiers shot and killed the starving child

ISIS prisoners were treated with more dignity than these children, Agular says

16 million people are losing their healthcare and hospitals are already closing because of it but it’s a win because one of the bottom tier fast food restaurants is going to start selling the same Mexican Cokes that you can already get at literally every store

The position of ICE/DHS is that there is no law they have to obey, you cannot see their names or faces, you cannot tell anyone where they are or record them, and they can detain anyone indefinitely regardless of citizenship status. This is completely incompatible with a remotely free society
