    The mental gymnastics needed to justify using the freaking House of the United States to punish a single person who they likely have never met, for an immutable personal trait?

    One of the big downsides to pretending 100% of Holocaust victims were Jewish is that the 50% who weren’t were sent to the camps for other reasons.

    Like being Trans, or any other kids and of LGBT. The problem was even “the good guys” were anti-lgbt back then, just look at how they treated their war heroes:

    And then America, who had taken in all types of Nazis scientists, denied Turing entry just to fucking take a vacation.

    I think this is why so many people are shocked by trump winning, people actually believed Americans were inherently good, and they believed it.
