Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.
Auschwitz took time.

The world won't listen to this, will they, but they bloody well should...
Though even if just some of us listen, and act in the right way, and then show others that's a start, and it's hope.
Thank you JP for writing this. As always the voice of reason and a laser focus on the point. 👏👏

A very long thread, but extremely important to read. Read to the end and then share with people who you know will care
1/ 🚨 Conspiracy theories about the 2024 election miss the bigger picture.
The truth? It wasn’t one night, one hack, or one fraud. It was a system rigged in plain sight – right in front of us. The playbook was out in the open for years. But hardly anyone paid attention.
Here’s how they did it... 🧵

Appalling. Remote controlled drones being used to hover over, look at, and then cynically shoot children ranks amongst the sickest cowardice ever.

Trump was never a "successful businessman". He was just a bankrupt moron playing a successful businessman on a Reality TV show. Now that the show's NDAs have run out, the producer who created the Trump facade is apologising to America and the world.

Loving* the fantasy that Ireland in particular could be easily convinced to just trust the (ECHR-less) British state to do fair trials and hug prisoners because something something common law

Robert Jenrick reckons he can substitute bits of the Good Friday Agreements - an international multilateral peace treaty - for other bits none of the other parties signed off, because - WAIT FOR IT - "we are the country of habeas corpus and Magna Carta".

My better half didn't believe that people thought Hurricane Milton was manipulated weather by the Dem govt.
Typed 'weather creating' to find results to show her.
Got a lovely mix of crackpot conspiracy theories and computer game programmers showing off their weather rendering skills. 😅
