Goebbels turned his anger upon the "society rabble" after announcing that live German actors had been banned from the stage for publicly rediculing Nazi party and state functionaries. He بماسمفمسمنمطاللمطا party and state functionaries. He denied that there was any lack of humor in Nazi Germany, but said that it must be kept "good- natured, decent and clean." "There is plenty of humor in Germany, more than enough," he said in three and one-half column editorial in the Nazi party's newspape Voelkischer Beobachter. "But we do not per- mit ourselves to be ridiculed.” The five actors were W Or- ner Finck, actor-author: Pete Sachse, vaudeville comedian, and Helmut Buth, Wilhelm Meissner and Manfred Dlugi, the latter three members of a vaudeville combination known as.

the right wing propaganda turn against vaccines--I think a good half of it done as conscious, willful lying--is one of the most evil things in US history. straight up murdering your own party members by the tens of thousands for money and political gain
