Today is Yom Ha'Shoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day.

Today I note: Eugenics, a core Nazi idea, had its roots in America a century ago, and has returned explicitly today in arguments for ending shutdowns:
Covid19 kills only the elderly
the sick
the weak
who are a burden anyway.
When Covid-19 came for the elderly, I didn't say anything, because I was not elderly.

When Covid-19 came for the sick, I didn't say anything, because I was not sick.

When Covid-19 came for the weak, I didn't say anything, because I would not admit my own weaknesses...

When Covid-19 came for people of color, I didn't say anything, because Jews have become "white."

When Covid-19 came for the big cities, I didn't say anything, because I had the privilege to stop going to work in a big city and shelter in a wealthy suburb...

4/ When Covid-19 came for us, it didn't matter whether anyone was left to speak for us, because Covid-19 does not listen.
It does not care if we are young or old, healthy or sick.

It's infectious and fatal either way.

So is a toxic death cult of social Darwinist cleansing.
