I realise that this is going a bit far afield, and certainly off the direct topic of the thread ...
In the USA, every year 1,500,000 people are slaughtered in the bloodiest manner possible ... legally. This legalised slaughter has been going on since 1973. We've long since passed Hitler's body count, passed Stalin's body count, and are closing in on Mao's body count. In the popular press, anyone who opposes the mass slaughter is condemned as an "anti-choice" extremist. Indeed, one of our two largest political parties insists, as a matter of policy, that this slaughter continue unabated, unopposed, and even wants to force people who oppose it to financially support it.
But it's all OK, becuase the things that are being slaughtered aren't human ... they're "blobs of tissue"; at best they're subhuman "potential life", and if they weren't destroyed they'd only go on to have lives unworthy of living. So say the killers, anyway.
Once folks arrogate to themselves the power to write other folks out of the human race, whether because of ancestry, age, physical appearance, or disability, any outrage is possible.
Don't look at the Nazis or the Communists and think "it can't happen here".
It's already well underway.
Yes, the slaughter of the innocents is well underway and we live in a fascist state.
