Oncoming ochlocracy; offing opposition...


HAS: Do you have any people in your studio at the present time that you believe are Communist or Fascist, employed there? 
WD: No; at the present time I feel that everybody in my studio is one-hundred-percent American.
Interesting thought that Americans couldn't possibly be Communist or Fascist. Part of Walt Disney Testimony Before House Committee Transcript [transcript] H. A. Smith asking Walt Disney.
 
The image (left is from the 1943 Disney propaganda film Education for Death: The Making of the Nazi [Wiki]. We're all going full steam ahead and Godwin's Law was fulfilled ages ago. 

Bear with me, this is an introduction: well was Walt Disney a fascist or not? The Straight Dope from the noughties has a good non-partisan answer. That article also has some interesting links too, for those that enjoy the 'surf'; the transcript above and connection to ultra famous Nazi propagandist Leni Riefenstahl - she of the amazing "technically dazzling" and "visually ravishing" 'Olympia' fame - being two. 

Anyhooo, you may not know where I am going with this but here's another nudge: "If Disney Doesn't Like Nazi Comparisons, Maybe They Should Stop Acting Like Them" writes Scott Hounsell at Red State, and guess what, he is not wrong: this is how it starts. The frog has been in the heating-up saucepan for a while now and - as the fable goes - still isn't noticing how hot it is getting. The news is of course that of ex MMA fighter turned actress Gina Carano, who was fired by Disney ['galactic hypocrisy'] because she compared the current drift towards hounding and cancelling of Trump supporter (maybe even the whole rabid, fleck-mouthed, totally wrong 'show trial' of impeachment) to the Nazi persecution of Jews. She retweeted a message that had a harrowing real photograph that showed exactly what the text said:
"Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views."
That is the worry, that is absolutely true, only last month the posts on The Reichstag Fire and oligarchy highlighted the path we ARE on; along with the ludicrous media circus regarding 'attempted coup', 'armed insurrection', 'attempted violent overthrow', 'one of the darkest day in recent American history', 'domestic terrorists', 'armed rioters' and other similar terms: coordinated, orchestrated, intentional...you can see what's happening? They are writing fake news for the future's history lessons. Is the Capitol building burning? is there a fire in the copula (left)?

Continuing the Nazi theme, some morons (yeah Arnie, joining Hollywood's bat-shit crazy brigade)  even compared the Capitol riot to Kristallnacht (and here we could circle right back to Leni Riefenstahl); I kid you not. The Nazi pogrom
"In two days and nights, more than 1,000 synagogues were burned or otherwise damaged. Rioters ransacked and looted about 7,500 Jewish businesses, killed at least 91 Jews, and vandalized Jewish hospitals, homes, schools, and cemeteries. The attackers were often neighbours." [Britannica]
Of course there are other and higher death estimates. Compare that real terror and fear felt by hundreds of thousands to [fake LOL AOC] fear and a few turned over chairs. How many of the hundreds of statues and large gilt framed artworks - very apparent in all the internal video evidence - were destroyed Arnie? How many windows broken Arnie, eight, as many as ten? How many buildings burned down? How many car fires? The "ransacked" offices still had all the computer screens on the desks, and chairs behind the desks..there were some documents strewn on the floor though...FFS.
