15. I am currently listening to "Our Only Crime was Being Jewish" on Audible.

It is a 17hr. book (at 1.25speed) and is nothing but accounts of Holocaust survivors and witnesses. The number of remarks about how the populace and, as you point out, the LEO community turned quickly against the Jews and others, of course; it has to be mentioned lest someone body feel the need to remind me and other Jews, that others died in the Holocaust.

It is hard to fathom how this is the fucking second decade of the 21st century and we are still battling over shit that should have been settled YEARS ago! Voting rights?! WHAT THE FUCK?! Why is that even controversial?! Can't get the Ambassador against anti-Semitism appointed because the fee-fees of republicans are hurt? Seriously?! Women can't get health care and control their own bodies? WHY?! Minorities, of all stripes, are scared, and afraid for their personal safety and individual rights, meanwhile republicans are screeching about "demorats" coming for everyone's guns and crosses off their walls! ARRRGH!
