Courtyard of the Meiji shrine in Tokyo, Japan by Werner Bischof, 1951.

So now that there's a whole bunch of liberals reading this meme, getting ready to smash the 'like' button, please keep the following in mind: this was all done during the time when Elizabeth Warren was a registered Republican, because, according to her, she "just liked their policies".

Digest that for a moment. Take all the time you need.

Republicans are garbage.

Democrats are garbage.

No matter where you (mistakenly) think you fall on the political spectrum, both parties have duped you into believing in a nonexistent duopoly.

Stop voting for "the lesser of two evils"; there is no such thing.

Yes, It Is Just Like The Nazis

Hey so remember Anne Frank? The Jewish young girl who hid in an attic and was killed by the Nazis? The emblematic person we think of when we think of victims of the Holocaust?

She did not die in a gas chamber or in a death camp. She died in a ‘temporary’ detention center for the mass deportations which preceded the death camps. She was in that camp because a patriotic neighbor ratted her out to the German deportation force. She died, not of a bullet to the back of the head or choking on gas, but of typhus. She contracted typhus because the Nazis couldn’t realistically deport people at the rate they wanted to, because before the death camps their infrastructure couldn’t handle the sudden influx of ethnic minorities they had decided to imprison, and because they didn’t care about the consequences of that so their deportation detention centers were unhygienic and prisoners were underfed and overcrowded.

And she was picked up by the deportation force not because she was an illegal citizen but because, just like the US is doing with asylum seekers, she was part of a formerly recognized class of citizens who were legally redefined to lack citizenship by a new administration.

Anne Frank is exactly like the children who have already died in the United State’s detention camps. Exactly. Down to the very last detail. There. Is. Not. A. Single. Difference.

So unless you want to fucking tell me that Anne goddamn Frank was not a victim of the Holocaust, y’all can shut the fuck up with that “stop making concentration camp comparisons, you’re diminishing the suffering of the Holocaust” bullshit.

Its also worth noting that her family TRIED to flee to the US and was denied. She was in that camp partly because the US refused to let her refugee family immigrate.

At a rally in North Carolina on Wednesday night, Trump lashed out at Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), doubling down on the racist tweets he sent earlier this week, and the crowd began chanting “Send her back!”⁠⁠

This blatant white nationalism didn’t arise out of nowhere—it is the direct result of the Fox-Trump feedback loop, in which Trump constantly seeks approval from the Fox commentators he watches and bases his messaging and decisions on Fox programming.
