I see now he actually served 20 years. For some reason I thought he got out in less than 5, I probably mixed that up with an alarming number of lower level nazis.

Not even the important ones, a lot of middle manager types in the regime got off fine since they didn’t directly interact with the death camps. The only real difference between a lot of them and Heydrich or Eichmann was that they didn’t happen to be put in charge of death camp stuff.

Oh wow, on a similar note I listened to a podcast where an infosec auditing team was hired by a high tech company in the US to audit their factory security, and the team included a guy fluent in Chinese. While they were in the town in the middle of nowhere Midwest he went to a Chinese restaurant and looked at the menu in Chinese and saw they had black duck eggs. The guy realized no way a Chinese place in the middle of Nebraska or somewhere similar would offer something like that if they didn’t have ton of people from China in town all the time, and it wound up being a major espionage discovery with the FBI called in.

It's been while since I listened so I don't remember the exact state and I don't think they mention the company name, but it was because it was something like a Boeing or Raytheon plant where they were researching or making something like guidance computers. The infosec auditors weren't looking for foreign espionage, they were there to test if they could get inside the plant to a sensitive area so security could be improved. It just happened that one of the auditors I believe was from Russia with extensive background in Chinese and in his off time happened to go to a nearby restaurant where he saw red flags and understood what they likely meant, in regards to China having a significant presence in the town.

The ending of the federal eviction moratorium is approaching. THE NUMBER DOES NOT LIKE UNCERTAINTY.*

The specter of millions of Americans *consumers* suddenly being out on their asses collecting aid and *NOT CONSUMING*, potentially inviting the recession, "Great Correction," or "Big-D" Depression that's honestly due should be the lead news story every loving night but it seems to be NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT based on how little attention it's being given.

* unless said uncertainty is the only thing keeping The Number alive, in which case The Number likes uncertainty.

Hannity was never a huge anti-vaxxer, it's Carlson/Ingraham. GOP ain't doing poo poo because they're base-captured right now and the base is telling their politicians that the election was rigged and the vaccines make you magnetic 5G towers broadcasting Critical Race Theory.

The Number is more or less displeased because southern hospitals are filling up again and the covid numbers are rising basically everywhere. Vaccines are also slow in getting to the developing/manufacturing world, so new waves of shutdowns are probably coming. The Number doesn't much care about inflation right now, or human suffering, it's that full hospitals worldwide make for bad business.

It's for people like my dad who are lifelong republicans and consume fox news all day, but aren't crazy enough to buy into the anti-vaxx stuff. It lets them ignore and deny that they ever saw the conspiracy stuff on fox, and just point to things like Hannity.

Fox news has had their hooks in these people for two decades and has been gradually turning up the pressure on the cognitive dissonance to the point they're basically at "Oceania was at war with Eastasia. Oceania had always been at war with Eastasia".
