I see the politics of resentment are back in the media - this time apparently the support for Reform et al are older people wanting the younger generations to suffer as they did

That’s two Phillippe Sands on Nazis done. Now onto Ahmed’s Alt Reich. There can be no argument that Sands’ text is about actual Nazis - the subjects being Nazis (Rauf and the vans). Yet to see whether Alt Reich’s subjects are actual Nazis 1/2
