I've been working through a few biographies of the top brass of Nazidom, and even with the rather perfunctory understanding I've gained from these books of Hitler's seizure of power and all that followed in Nazi Germany, my ears are pricking up in horror every day as I listen to the latest news from around the world. And I'm not even going so far as the Holocaust. If the Holocaust and WWII never happened, the Nazi regime would still have been an unmitigated nightmare.

The language certain politicians are using is plucked directly from the mouths of Goebbels' and Himmler's rotting corpses. How can they not see what lies ahead if they continue with this shit? We know how this story ends. We have examples of it from recent memory, we don't even need to cast our minds back to the 1930s 🤷‍

What's even more infuriating is that when you try to point this out to others, they act like you're insane/exaggerating.
