- Albert Einstein

Der Fuehrer: Hitler's Rise to Power (1944) by Konrad Heiden

  https://www.amazon.com/ Fuehrer-Hitlers-Rise-Power/dp/ 0897603966   I once owned this book and found it interesting but not so relative. Now, with an American president exhibiting strong signs of mental and personality traits attributable to Hitler, I want to find it again.  narcissistic personality disorder, borderline personality disorder, and even psychosis Below is a review from Amazon which I found very interesting and relative to today's authoritarian politics. A warning to all! David Drury 5.0 out of 5 stars Fertile Soil for Nazi Seed Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2016 It has become an internet truism that as an online discussion proceeds forward the probability of someone comparing their opponents to Nazi's or Hitler approaches 1 (Godwin's Rule). This adage of course gives birth to another (I'll call it Viam Dimittere Godwin's Rule)... that after the mention of Godwin's Rule in an online discussion, the likelihood of all participants di...

A Nation Giddy With Relief

Image
  November 07, 2020 When the Wicked Witch of the East suffered her tragic ending, the cowered citizens of the land  came out from their hiding places in disbelief . Once convinced the reign of tyranny had come to an end, the citizens were overcome with giddy celebration of song and dance.

An era of tyrannical leadership over the land of the free and home of the brave will come to an end on January 20, 2021 (Inauguration Day).  Celebrations recognizing the end of this incurable era and the beginning of truth & hope were a beauty to behold today.

Capitol On Lockdown

Image
  January 06, 2021 I don't know which was worse to witness today, the assault on our nation's Capitol by Trump supporters or the Trumpublican legislators who were willing to obstruct and delay the electoral college vote count. Both believe the absurd, and both were willing to commit atrocities to please a sick man. The elephant in the room is why the security detail for the Capitol was unprepared to handle the protesters and why it took so long for backup. I wouldn't be surprised to find out the siege on the Capitol was planned and coordinated by supporters and legislators following the orders of a lame-duck resident. Call it an  Inside Job or a Fix! What people of color rightfully take away from this day of national reckoning is how white privilege gives persons with white skin entitlement to assemble with violent intent and unlawfully attack our nation's governing bodies without repercussions.  Picture the same attack you saw today, substitute Black Lives Matter or La...
