International Holocaust Remembrance Day, “we resolve to counter lies with facts and hatred with action in service of our common humanity. Today and every day, we impart the solemn lesson of Never Again.”
Yes, MAGA minions, History can and should be critical. By the way MAGA morons, History not altered or dismissed deals with the facts, the deeds, the machinations, and the motives, of the human race…the good, the bad, and the ugly!
The rise and fall of Adolf Hitler is one of the most terrible, dramatic and unbelievable stories in history. He dealt in death in such boxcar numbers, and so irrevocably altered civilization, that it is impossible for the ordinary human being to fathom how so much evil could exist and be perpetrated essentially by a single person…………….Amid the turmoil after the First World War, there arose in Germany many nationalist parties called the Folk Parties. Each shared two or three common themes. First, they said, Germany did not lose the war, but was betrayed into losing the war. Usually, the corollary to that was that the leftists and Jews betrayed them. Second, the parliamentary democracy set up after the war to run Germany, the Weimar Republic, was hopelessly unwieldy and inefficient. Third was a call to law and order. German culture abhors chaos and if nothing else post-war Germany was chaotic. Therefore, the Folk Parties appealed to the German peoples’ sense of law and order. Better to have an autocratic regime than allowing the chaos to continue. (Jewish History.org)
Ignoring History is easier than actually the desire to understand its ramifications. Ignorance is only bliss if, in fact, you are IGNORANT!
Read all about Hitler's rise. Replace the name of Hitler with TRUMP. Replace the name Folk Party, with either The Republican Party/MAGA/Freedom Caucus. Replace the idea that Germany did not lose the First World War, with TRUMPS Big Lie regarding the 2020 elections. Insert the current Majority of GOP in the House with the words Weimar Republic. Keep the phrase “a call to law and order,” Then make certain you add the ominous idea that it is… “Better to have an autocratic regime than allowing the chaos to continue.”
I study History. I desire equality/freedom/liberty…so should all of America, because without it the relics of Hitler will run rampant! Addressing the current situation in the US, Biden wrote that “sadly, we have seen over and over again that hate never goes away. It only hides—waiting to reemerge whenever it is given just a little bit of oxygen.” (Jerusalem Post)
