I unfortunately grew up there for a while, before I managed to escape.

My hatred is very dearly earned.

I am no longer infected.

They switched to Republican after they lost the fight for Civil Rights.

But it's exactly the same group, they used to be called Dixiecrats, not a lot else you can call them except "racist southern filth".

There are bigots everywhere.

They aren't LITERALLY THE DOMINANT FOUNDATION OF THE CULTURE ANYWHERE ELSE!!!

It's all the south has and is, it's like their blood and bones, there's nothing else.

This is a tobacconist!

For Dixiecrats, giving any chance at all to a brown person is the real crime.

It's not just Trump, and it's not most of American society.

This is the Jim Crow South reasserting its control over America.

Yugoslavia is actually a good example.

We bombed the peace into Serbia.

1995 was amazing, really the whole 90s.

Amazing music, peace, and nobody was afraid to tell all the douchebags of the world to go f themselves.

I hate the shit parts of it.

But most of it isn't shit.

I think your math is wrong.

It assumes nobody is having kids.

The script is nothing to write home about, largely adapted from the meeting transcripts.

The setting is fixed and fairly limited, painting a backdrop but only just, powerful men desiring comfort besieged by winter.

The acting is art beyond anything I've seen elsewhere, each character responds to the next, you see and are absorbed by the mundanity of the interactions, the basic dynamics of a corporate meeting, while the underlying impact screams in your brain.

They took the dry meeting notes (https://holocaust.umd.umich.edu/news/uploads/WanseeProtocols.pdf) and made a drama that shocks you with the ultimate banality of evil, exactly as imagined by Hannah Arendt.

This just came to me today, we all write our own narratives for what we do, and watching Heydrich, the ambitious patriot trying to clear the way for his country's deserved greatness, the bureaucrats trying to slither amongst the politics, the soldiers merely looking for leadership, and the diplomats and lawyers merely trying to keep the blood off their cuffs.

Meanwhile, Eichmann takes his orders and follows them with the obedience and competence of a well-disciplined soldier...

 

I'm sure this won't end up just like the GOP immigrant caravans of ms-13 and disappear right after the election.

 

I mean, sure, at this point why not?

 

Your honor, I would like the opportunity to interview the underaged girl accusing me of rape, privately in my basement, so we can try to reenact the crime and confirm her testamony.
