15. Remember when people didn't dare say such racist things on a public stage?

And if they did, they were shamed into obscurity forever?

How can we ever get the world to value decency again?

I mean, I hear about these top people spewing this racist shit and all I can think of is Hitler and Nazi Germany. That sort of public selling of hate (I refuse to call it populism because that is too benign a word) gathers followers who will do things like shoot up a grocery store full of black people. We're on a fast track to everything the Nazis stood for, and if you think that's hyperbole, please wake up.
