They dehumanize their enemies (us) and label us and then will feel perfectly justified in taking Jan.6 style insurrectionist enemies of democracy to punishment by death and camps.
Exactly like dehumanized Jews in Germany became scapegoats.
Heinrich Heine (1797-1856) the Christian convert poet wrote:
Wherever they burn books they will also, in the end, burn human beings.
Our “burning” today is banning, deplatforming, demonetizing and censoring on social media, plus slanders on TV talk shows.
We already have had protesters held without lawyers, some in solitary confinement, some without being informed of any charges, for Jan.6. And we could ask Ashli Babbitt about her opinion but she is dead. RIP.
Look up “The 10 stages of genocide” by Dr. Gregory Stanton; we are in various shadings of stages IV, V, and VI.
