Hannah Arendt distinguished totalitarianism “from other forms of political oppression known to us such as despotism, tyranny and dictatorship” in that totalitarianism seeks to subjugate civil society and private lives, not just political opponents, using psychological, not just physical, repression.
I saw the new George Orwell documentary last night. It’s called 2+2=5. I have been a little bit squeamish about applying the word totalitarian to Trump and the Republicans. Not anymore. We are experiencing a totalitarian movement. There’s no question.

Streamed Lee last night. Her photography of the Nazi atrocities revealed by the collapse of Germany at the war's end served to message humanity with " never again." What would photographer's reveal if allowed into Gaza!

Iran
So the US blows a hole in the ground to set back Iran's nuclear ambitions by a few years and then does no more. Doesn't that give the Iranians every incentive to get a nuclear bomb so that there is no repeat? Or perhaps the US does an Iraq in Iran - regime change. Look how that went last time!

What can we do? How do ordinary UK citizens help Americans resist Trump's heartless mindless attack on US Aid?
