Web Log Purpose

A web log based on the principle that a civilized society deserves democratic government based on integrity. The premise here is the U.S. democracy has effectively been subverted by oligarchical forces which must be opposed with facts and rational thought. (An RSS feed is recommended.)

Fears of Anti-Semitism Rise with Trump Campaign

I am very sad to have to post the link below.  And yet, I am proud to do so as an American.  There continue to be reports of increased anti-Semitism from some very deranged sectors of our citizenry.  Certainly, these radicals do not represent the majority of our citizens.  And yet the progression of verbal attacks, first on Muslims and Mexicans, and then to Jews is horrifying.  One does see a copying of the Nazi propaganda regime in Germany of the 1930s.

There is a tendency in people to simplistically blame whole groups of people for long-standing grievances of one's own.  This is scape-goating.  And, indeed it can lead to something like the ovens of Germany.

For this and so many reasons Trumpism must be vigorously opposed.
