Nazis - Terrorists

just reading a variety of items about the current Charlottesville conflict with hidden agendas surfacing all around to justify it. I found this quote from Nazi Germany:

Joseph Goebbels 😲

“There was no point in seeking to convert the intellectuals. For intellectuals would never be converted and would anyway always yield to the stronger, and this will always be "the man in the street." Arguments must therefore be crude, clear and forcible, and appeal to emotions and instincts, not the intellect. Truth was unimportant and entirely subordinate to tactics and psychology.”

– Joseph Goebbels, Reich Minister or Propaganda Nazi Germany , 1933-1945

This is exactly what we will always see in this behavior. Let us not fail to be aware of this.
