"Reich citizenship will not be laid in the cradle of every one born in Germany, but will be ceremoniously conferred on him after he has shown himself worthy of it through special accomplishments, through loyal services to the State." NY Times, July 6, 1933.

For those of us raised in the 80s, this anti-diversity dogma is so fucking weird. Network TV taught this kid from very white NH that our country was diverse & that was a gift. I couldn’t wait to get out of my bubble. Now they’re saying you gotta get back in the bubble? Come on.

James Woods went on CNN and started crying about his house burning down and smacked talked the response from officials in California for the wildfires.

But his house is still standing.

Is he gonna praise firefighters and thank Gavin Newsom now or nah?

Or even apologize for lying?
