Just remembering this posting from @pluralistic in 2016. Seems continuously relevant with all the apologists and sanewashing about these days. When people tell you what they will do with their enemy of choice, believe them.

Cave Cattum

@cyberlyra @pluralistic When Curzio Malaparte was asked in 1945 how could civilized Italians have allowed Mussolini to take over of Italy and remain in power for 20 years, all he had to do was point to the American and British press around takeover time.
