Germans believed their country was suffering. They were not the world leader they once were and believed it vital that they become again.
A populist figure said, “Germany’s problem is Jews. (And intellectuals, homosexuals, the mentally ill, the developmentally delayed.) We won’t be ‘great again’ until we rid the country of this vermin that is stealing our jobs, raping our women, decaying our values.”
And Germans answered the call.
“The Other” is a bell endlessly ringing across the ages around the world. America is at a tipping point: Many of us are answering the call. Many are not.
In which direction will the greatest nation on earth, the leader of the free world, turn? What is our true north?
