Stichwort #USA: Statt der von #Trump versprochenen Senkung der Lebensmittelpreise eskalieren die Kosten auch für #Eier in den Staaten. Berichte über Amerikanerinnen und Amerikaner, die statt der teuren Eier nun Kartoffeln, Steine oder Plastik-Eier bemalen, sorgen gerade für Aufregung.

Aber auch in #Deutschland gibt es ja leider noch immer Millionen, die sich von #Dualismus & #Faschismus Vorteile versprechen lassen... theatlantic.com/technology/arc

Danke, doch ich fürchte, die meisten in den #USA bekommen den fossilen Krieg im #Jemen gar nicht mit.

Und ob es in #Deutschland so anders ist? Gleich der erste Druko unter meinem heutigen Blogpost zu #Pessach & #Ostern "glänzte" durch völlige Ahnungslosigkeit auch im Hinblick auf die komplexe Lage in #Israel. Die Warnung von #Bonhoeffer vor gefährlicher #Dummheit bleibt leider aktuell, fürchte ich... scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-

Protest March of the Penguins

"Trump slapped 10 per cent tariffs on an Australian territory with no human inhabitants: the Heard and McDonald Islands, home to #penguins and seals. In response, nonprofit Penguins International will livestream the #Antarctic penguins’ annual #migration from the ocean to their breeding grounds, calling the event the ‘Protest March of the Penguins.”"

The American Right has been eugenicist from the Civil War to the present day. A simple appreciation of American history tells you that. It was these same people who invented and used IQ tests to designate "morons" who, in their eyes, didn't deserve to take part in society, the same people who wanted to ban whites and blacks from racially intermingling for fear of "diluting" the white race.

Know your enemy. The American Right are eugenicists. Always have been. Always will be.
