Angela Merkel Warns Against The "Dark Forces" On The Rise In Europe
"In recent days, German Jews were warned by a leading government official not to wear kippahs in public, following a rise in anti-Semitic attacks. Addressing the rise in anti-Semitism, Merkel said that Germany has "always had a certain number of anti-Semites among us, unfortunately."
"There is to this day not a single Synagogue not a single daycare center for Jewish children, not a single school for Jewish children that does not need to be guarded by German policemen," she added."
Tragically, fascists are too addled (see Dunning-Kruger below) to see that "the shoe fits them perfectly," believing instead that they are a salvific people -- "set apart" and uniquely "blessed by God" -- a people whose very goodness and exceptional insight -- make them "cognoscenti," members of a sacred, rarefied "brotherhood" without whom the survival of Truth, Justice and Goodness would be impossible.
Mark Twain, Adolf Hitler And The Dunning-Kruger Effect
Alan: A subset of "Dunning-Kruger" is that fascists never know they're fascists: they think they've been sent by God. Then, when the fever passes - typically in 20 years of less - they play the role of "Good Germans" who "didn't know what was really going on."
