To say I am greatly concerned is beyond a doubt.
The 10 stages are:
Classification – The differences between people are not respected. There’s a division of ‘us’ and ‘them’ which can be carried out using stereotypes, or excluding people who are perceived to be different. (as seen in the posted article)
Symbolisation – This is a visual manifestation of hatred. Jews in Nazi Europe were forced to wear yellow stars to show that they were ‘different’. (not seeing this yet, but we often wear our own symbols of MAGA hats, Elephants as shown in the chart, etc. it seems they are letting us adopt our own for now)
Discrimination – The dominant group denies civil rights or even citizenship to identified groups. The 1935 Nuremberg Laws stripped Jews of their German citizenship, made it illegal for them to do many jobs or to marry German non-Jews. (current uneven Justice system)
Dehumanisation – Those perceived as ‘different’ are treated with no form of human rights or personal dignity. During the Genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, Tutsis were referred to as ‘cockroaches’; the Nazis referred to Jews as ‘vermin’. (Joe Biden’s Red Speech and the tone in which he used MAGA Republicans, attempt to make MAGA a pejorative)
Organisation – Genocides are always planned. Regimes of hatred often train those who go on to carry out the destruction of a people. (Antifa, BLM, any number of groups on the left, reparations’ talk is training up the black community to be useful idiots)
Polarisation – Propaganda begins to be spread by hate groups. The Nazis used the newspaper Der Stürmer to spread and incite messages of hate about Jewish (republicans, etc.) people. (I think this is a check mark)
Preparation – Perpetrators plan the genocide. They often use euphemisms such as the Nazis’ phrase ‘The Final Solution’ to cloak their intentions. They create fear of the victim group, building up armies and weapons. (see the article)
Persecution – Victims are identified because of their ethnicity or religion and death lists are drawn up. People are sometimes segregated into ghettos, deported or starved and property is often expropriated. Genocidal massacres begin. (does that chart seem like a ‘list’ to you?)
Extermination – The hate group murders their identified victims in a deliberate and systematic campaign of violence. Millions of lives have been destroyed or changed beyond recognition through genocide.
Denial – The perpetrators or later generations deny the existence of any crime.
I don’t know how we make the public understand what is coming.

History is repeating itself. We are no different than the Indian except we are hated more because of the unrelenting media.

Wow… that is quite a list. Sad to say some on this list are already quite familiar .
Very disturbing. Many on the list are already underway. Sadly, many people are blind to it. My husband keeps saying, “History is repeating itself. Haven’t we learned anything from the past?”
