What's happening now is kind of worse. The Nazis rose to power while the German Economy was in shambles, with hyperinflation, etc. The great crisis in America was “You must be nice to people you don't like”. The original Nazi-enablers were facing starvation—we were facing tolerating drag queens.

There's a progression of complexity in the math courses you take as an undergrad. Most people, IMO, plateau at some point in the progression, they reach the max complexity they can understand.

Perhaps the assumption of white men that everything should “make sense” to us has expanded to become anti-intellectualism? Advance biomedicine is as untrustworthy as transgenderism for the simple reason that it's not easy for us to understand.

Why specify “semiautomatic” weapon? Would the response have been different to say, a revolver?
Alexakis: "The Department of Homeland Security continues to allege that Ms. Martinez ambushed federal officers, rammed them with her vehicle, and while doing so was armed with a semiautomatic weapon."

Not all grifts are about money.
Also exhausting: all the people claiming that the organizers will fail if they don't allow popular liberal men to become their public face, as if the entire purpose of all of this is to simply win elections and not to keep their loved ones and neighbors from being jailed, deported or killed.
