Nazis...Here, There and Everywhere

  • Resumen

  • This is a true story and as we often find, truth can be stranger than fiction. I am an Irish Jew and was raised as a Roman Catholic. Growing up, there were interesting trends that emerged periodically. Sometimes there was pronounced prejudice aimed towards the Irish, at other times Eastern Europeans, hatred of the Catholics and Blacks was always big, and then, as Phil Ochs sang in National Brotherhood Week, "...everybody hates the Jews." Since I was a mongrel, roots, such as mine, could put you in a bind...like who can you freely hate and mock? When I was young, I had to be careful or I could have ended up sending hate mail to myself or burning a cross in front of our own shanty. Nothing's easy.
    In many parts of the world, including here in the good old USA, hostility towards difference is on the rise. Some seem to be enjoying the freedom to scorn "the other" while accepting elements of Totalitarianism and Authoritarianism as reasonable, decisive approaches to governance. Some even consider test driving those historically failed and patently evil courses. I thought it might be fun to open a few of those doors and see what flies out. So, buckle up, put on your flak jackets and enjoy.
