    They don’t seem that traumatized when they are literally filming their own war crimes and posting them on Instagram for all the fascist clicks.

      The only way I could rationalize the OG Nazis…trying to get into their head and how they managed to do the things they did…was that they were straight up brainwashed.

      It sounded crazy when I was younger. Like, something out of a comic book instead of a history book.

      But as I watch and try to critically understand how the modern propaganda machine works, I can’t help but wonder if maybe I was right.
