Anne Frank, probably the best known victim of Nazi concentration camps, was not shot or gassed. She died of typhus.
One way concentration camps become zones where law doesn't apply is by neglecting policies & standards that would protect health & provide healthcare. You deny laws & norms & dehumanize your victim.

Can't be exaggerated: every bully believes themselves a victim. Even Hitler! Even US slave owners!
It's part of the psychology. There is no amount of power or privilege that can ameliorate it.

so I'm about halfway through my re-read of "the rise and fall of the third reich," world war 2 is about to kick off, and one notable thing is how many times hitler would start off speeches and meetings talking about how badly he/germany had been treated, usually by countries he planned on crushing

it’s not necessarily that all these people in the epstein files participated in the raping of girls it’s that none of them cared and if he hadn’t been arrested and died they’d still be out there trying to be his friend

A big part of the story here is that women like Renee Good are braver and stronger than they could have ever imagined and that just doesn't fit with what MAGA men tell themselves about how gender works. It just does not compute.

Republicans will get mad that you don’t like them because of “politics,” as if it’s a football team preference, and repeatedly vote for people who kinda want to carpet bomb an American city.

For the intentionally obtuse: there are many many ways to enforce laws. Stop framing issues as ‘don’t enforce the law at all, or enforce it in the worst way possible.’ Your false choice is intentional.
This is deliberate. And it’s going to be our downfall if we persist.

Please don’t get mad at me y’all but I swear last night I was bored so I asked ChatGPT why Bari Weiss is so awful, and in its response it compared her to Matt Taibbi.
The only thing more insane than Matt Taibbi suing Eoin Higgins is Matt suing him for comparing him to Bari Weiss

There is a difference between righteous anger, directed at injustice, and hateful anger, directed at those who are different. Authoritarian regimes deliberately conflate the two to silence criticism and create false equivalence. It's important we don't let those in power succeed in this endeavor.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.
