We are a lot more alike than we are different
  • I kind of see your point there. My hope though is that maybe people could gain more empathy for each other by understanding that we are all human and I hope that one day people can understand each other's struggles.

  • TIL in 1933 the Wall Street Journal had a headline which read "Berlin Views Hitler Calmly: Rise in stocks reflects confidence he will not disrupt nation's affairs"
    www.snopes.com Did a 1933 Article Report That Hitler Would Not 'Disrupt' Germany?

    Events always seem more obvious and predictable after they have already taken place.

    Did a 1933 Article Report That Hitler Would Not 'Disrupt' Germany?

    Here's a copy and paste from the 1933 article:

    Rise in Stocks Reflects Confidence He Will Not Disrupt Nation's Affairs

    Berlin is settling down to pass judgment on political developments. Politicians, economists and bankers declare there is usually wide discrepancy between the speeches of opposition politicians and the actions of the group when it gains power.

    Consequently, it is not believed that Hitler will accomplish a change in the constitution or that [Reich Minister of Economics Alfred] Hugenberg will bring about a general reduction of interest rates. The government wants to obtain an adjournment of the Reichstag for several months, but it is questionable whether the Centre [Party] will approve of such action.

  • We must do everything we can to stop this. Please try contacting three of your friends who you think will listen but don't know what's going on and let them know. Kremlin propaganda is trying to get us to fight each other and undermine the US. So far it's been working but we have the power to stop it.
