Some things should not be political

Like so many people, I’ve given up trying to understand the MAGA movement. Apparently DT is still the president and Biden is a puppet being controlled by Obama who lives in the basement of the White House with his gay lover, Micheal. And if you don’t believe that’s the truth than you lack critical thinking skills and have been brainwashed by the Jesus-hating, baby-killing woke leftist Satanist Democrats. Okay.

A few days ago I watched the 2016 movie “Denial” which was about a libel trial in England. A writer, who’d made a name for himself by becoming a prominent Holocaust denier, sued a Holocaust scholar for calling him a liar. In England the burden of proof in a libel case is on the defendant and so the scholar’s legal team had to prove that the gas chambers did exist and that the Nazis knew exactly what they were doing. Further, they had to prove that the writer knew he was spreading false claims but did so for personal gain.

It’s an excellent movie with a message pertinent to today. Too many politicians are saying things they know to be false for personal gain. For example, today a GOP congresswoman claimed the US House of Representatives passed a budget bill funding “pre-birth abortions.” Does she really believe that a doctor will murder a newborn baby simply because the mother asks him to?

I wish the AMA would sue the idiot but I doubt that will happen.

I’ve been fortunate to have known many survivors of the Holocaust. Many were children who lost their entire families. Many came to this country to stay with a relative they hardly knew. Some became conservative Republicans and others become liberal Democrats. But they are all disappearing. Few remain to be doubted and threatened by the deniers. Few remain to defend their truth.

The Holocaust was never a political issue but the MAGAs are the party of DENIAL. They deny the 2020 election results, they deny the insurrection happened or that it was provoked by DT. They deny climate change even though most of them live in states that are frequently impacted by that change. They deny that vaccines work. They deny that a world wide pandemic happened. Perhaps cruelest of all, they deny that Jesus Christ was the son of penniless and probably dirty refugees. I don’t know where the heck they think he came from. Probably some golden palace DT built in a former life.
