My mom was pushing this fundraiser on FB. I estranged her over it. Blocked her completely. Sometimes I feel bad about it, but then I remember this fundraiser and how she called the videos of the incident "propaganda."

It's so sad what propaganda can do to people. I didn't want to believe Adorno when I read it some time back, thought it was too negative, but now...

Sorry your mom got lost into this screwed mindset... I just stull can't fathom how it happens to people...

can’t fathom how it happens to people…

Mythic truths overriding facts. We need to learn how to spot it, and intervene. If they have too much bloodlust for othering, there are barely few options left to turn them around.

The fact that turtlesareneat’s DNA donor was willing to shill on a nazi platform for a nazi, she‘s far too gone.
