"Both groups were surprised that they had so much in common. The condemned women were astonished that the nuns had chosen to live a life nearly as confined as their own, in rooms that they, too, called 'cells.'"

Be honest, care for them and yourself, and don't worry if you're imperfect. That's how you turn questioning fascists into ex-fascists.
Love ya', poozers!

L'État allemand a lié sa propre renaissance dans le "royaume des nations civilisées" au travers d'une relation de protection particulière de la figure du Juif, où les Israélien·nes (toujours juif/ves) sont une incarnation primordiale de la vie juive.
"Tant que la figure du Juif restera un vecteur d'articulation et d'expérimentation de l'identité allemande, l'accomplissement de la différence collective et de l'action politique juives sera relégué exclusivement relégué à l'État d'Israël. La figure du Palestinien, ainsi que la sujétion politique des Palestinien·nes et leurs revendications d'égalité, seront à leur tour considérées soit comme un désagrément à éviter, soit comme une menace à criminaliser, plutôt que comme un prisme décisif pour reconnaître les multiples niveaux de violence morale légitimée en Allemagne. "

@germany: "The only substantive difference in the opposition pitting the political parties who are seen as capable of contributing to governance and those who are deemed inadmissible (i.e. the AfD) is that the former believe that it is acceptable to ethnically cleanse and settler colonise in Palestine, whereas the latter is of the opinion that ethnic cleansing should be performed at home too. A defense of the right to colonise across the seas is seen by mainstream opinion as crucial to maintaining political coherence, whereas the AfD is unwilling to abide by the classic colonial distinction separating colony and metropole. It is an uncanny predicament: both sides are thinking about colonialism, one implicitly proclaiming its admissibility somewhere, the other its desirability everywhere. And yet neither is referring to it."

TRT World Exclusive: Holy Redemption: Stealing Palestinian Land
"Israeli" settlers are a people stuck in the past - in their understanding of history, human rights, international law, dogma, and brutal violence. Rehabilitating these deranged people into the modern world would take years after Palestine frees its occupied lands.

it's a good thought!
ppl wanna think of themselves as good, decent people (not Putin or other psychopaths, but the 99%), and since they've done wrong (anyone has), that kind of cognitive concepts could just cut it.
it may be thought as sin,
or as a cannibal monster spirit Weetiko / Windigo,
or as a "mind virus",
or as an addiction, just like alcohol, drugs or other addiction,
these are at least the ones i've came by.

@Lockdownyourlife We're all in this together. Always.
Those struggling may be unlikely to reach out for assistance. When hope is exhausted there can seem little point.
You can prove those struggling, whom you care about, wrong on this.
