Stunning knowledge on display here, as always. Keep it up.

I appreciate that kind words and I am sure that Moiraine does as well but I don't want to speak on her behalf.

 

 

Go do that thing Jake Gyllenhaal's sister tells him to do at the kitchen table in Donnie Darko.

 

Never saw that movie.

 

 

You should. It's an interesting movie.

I have heard it is great...I just have not got around to watching it. But I might!

"Hitler's anti-Semitism was not so violent or genuine as it sounded." This attitude was, apparently, widespread among Germans at the time; many of them saw Hitler's anti-Semitism as a ploy for votes among the German masses.

Hitler today is taken seriously among all class of Bavarians. He is feared by some, enthusiastically hailed as a prophet and political economic savior by others, and watched with increasing sympathetic interest by the bulk who apparently are merely biding the psychological moment to mount Hitler's bandwagon.

 

Hitler's "Hakenkreuz" movement is essentially urban in character. It has not yet caught a foothold among the hardy Bavarian peasantry and high-landers, which would make it really dangerous. As a highly placed personage put it: "Hitler organized a small insignificant group of National Socialists two years ago, since when the movement has been smoldering beneath the surface. Now it has eaten it's way through and a conflagration of course is not only possible but certain if this now flame of fanatical patriotism finds sufficient popular combustible material to feed on."

 

His important business was going to Regensburg with three special trainloads of Munich admirers for the purpose of holding a series of reactionary inflammatory meetings and incidentally to beat up protesting Socialists and Communists with blackjacks if any dare protest.

 

Hitler's strength is in combination of his undeniable great gifts as an orator and organizer. He exerts an uncanny control over audiences, possessing the remarkable ability to not only rouse his hearers to a fighting pitch of fury, but at will to turn right around and reduce the same audience to docile calmness and good order.

 

He is credibly credited with being actuated by lofty, unselfish patriotism. He probably does not know himself just what he wants to accomplish.

Knapp is going to love this. But I read it earlier and I thought it was too good.

I've seen it twice, and I'm still not sure what I watched. It's confusing, scary/creepy, funny, sad, disturbing and intriguing. And it involves time travel.

Trump uses those choreographed hand/arm motions when he speaks, like Hitler(and others) did/do. You mayb notice the precision and repetition thereof. It's a technique, supposed to have a hypnotic effect, they say.
