An example of someone acknowledging their white privilege and using it to help. #Love it!

And there it is

knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit

wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad 

That was deep

philosophy is wondering if that means ketchup is a smoothie

That was deeper.

common sense is knowing that ketchup isn’t a damn smoothie you nasty

i had a generous sample packet of this in my purse and i did not know it was 300 dollar face cream i thought it was i don’t know my roommate buys a lot of shit from sephora and i thought it was like.. 30 dollar serum whatever you know who cares. so i used it as handjob lube in a pinch then afterwards we were like “that is so soft. that is so supple. what is this? this is so soft.” and so i googled it and it was 300 dollar face cream. 

once in the fifth grade this kid called me a homo and i thought it meant homeless and i was so confused i said ‘jeremy you’ve been to my house’

I like that their family can’t decide what to do with the red vases.

Just in case you missed the link in my other post. As someone who has studied Holocaust Literature and who has done a lot of reading on 1935-45 Germany, I feel I am somewhat qualified to point out neo-Nazism when I see it. But if you don’t want to take my word for it, how about the word of Anne Frank’s stepsister, who survived a Nazi death camp, and knows–from first-hand experience–more than a little something about what a Nazi looks and sounds like.

Honestly, I hold Trump supporters in much, much lower regard than I do Hitler’s supporters leading up to, and during, WWII. Why? Because most of Hitler’s supporters had no idea what atrocities his ideology and rhetoric would lead to. Most were just average people who would never dream that their country could ever commit true evil. Very few people not directly involved with the death camps even knew they existed, much less what went on in them. When shown footage of death camps being liberated, hardened front line German soldiers wept openly, or threw up. Because they truly and honestly had no idea.

Trump’s supporters–including every Republican who speaks in his favor, who voted for him in the primaries, or who will vote for him in the general election–do not have that excuse. They cannot pretend to be unaware of where this is headed; all they have to do is look at recent history to see exactly what happened last time someone with Trump’s ideology rose to power over a nation.

And if they refuse to look, if they squeeze their eyes shut and turn away from all the evidence laid out before them, even resisting when those who know history tell them, “Look at this source,” well…

No one puts that much effort into refusing to see unless they already know what they will find, and want to avoid the responsibility that comes with that knowledge. And when you work that hard to avoid looking, you don’t get to claim unwitting ignorance.

No, Trump supporters know exactly where this is going. And they are eager to get there.

Reblogging myself because when Republicans start in about how it’s “unfair,” and “just name-calling” to characterize them as neo-Nazis, I think it is important to remember and to point out that in addition to Eva Schloss,  numerous other Holocaust survivors and their children are comparing Trump and the modern American GOP to Hitler, and WWII Germany’s Nazi party, as well.

I’ll keep reblogging this and adding to it as long as Trump and his supporters continue to be neo-Nazis. Here’s another interesting article about Trump and his supporters in the American neo-Nazi party, aka the GOP, from the Atlantic.

And another, in which–among other things–Trump’s ghost writer, and a couple of psychiatric professionals weigh in.

I’m tired, but if you want, you can scroll back through my “rob gets political” tag, and/or “rob talks about fascism.” Somewhere in there are a couple of reading lists to further acquaint yourself with what fascism actually is, and how the Nazis rose to power in late 1930s Germany, so you can draw your own conclusions.

And again.
