A thread about #HolocaustMemorialDay

While at Thereisenstadt concentration camp I heard from the Chief Rabbi of the Netherlands.

He worked in a psychiatric hospital for decades.…
He treated Holocaust survivors who suffered from psychosis because of the unimaginable trauma they suffered.

One story stayed with him….

His name is Gidon Lev. Here we are at the fortress, which is a prison complete with torture chamber.

This is him explaining the Nazi sign at the entrance “Abreit macht frei” (work will set you free)…
This is the size of the small cells where Jews were kept. About 60 people were held in a tiny cell and slept standing up.

They had no heating and temperatures reached about -15. The window was sealed shut so no air.

They weren’t really fed and had to walk 6km everyday to work.

I love the brazen hypocrisy of Gov @GlennYoungkin of VA claiming he’s pro-life as he removes mask mandates, placing lives of medically fragile kids, teachers, staff in grave danger of COVID death. He wants to save embryos, but God help them if born w/complex medical needs 1/6
The entire anti-mask movement is ableist. Removing mask mandates in schools makes inclusion of kids and staff with complex medical needs impossible. This population will face forced segregation and denial of their fundamental, and ADA enshrined right to inclusion 2/6

"Between Obama’s mother, grandfather, Kenyan father, and Frank Marshall Davis, those are some pretty extreme political influences."

"He came to me to make sure I was supporting his sound policies. Of course, since his sound policies are more like the policies people like me have been advocating for quite a while, I’m happy to support them. He’s a born-again neo-con."
