Politico: #RFK Jr. says Deep State ‘is real,’ called FDA employees ‘sock puppet’ of industry
In an apparent effort to encourage FDA employees to stay true to their mission of making Americans healthier, Kennedy later also referenced the #CIA’s Project #MKUltra — a notorious human experimentation program from the 1960s — and the #Milgramexperiment, a well-known study meant to test people’s willingness to obey authority even if it meant inflicting pain on others.
Sasha Abramsky says the shocking truth we have to learn with the Abrego Garcia case is that America is now one vast Milgram experiment:
"In Trump’s fascist netherworld, there are a shockingly large number of Good Americans, people who seem incapable of rejecting unjust orders or understanding the moral implications of acquiescence in organized cruelty."

A thoughtful long thread by @wdlindsy
On Trump's dehumanising policies, the support these seem to generate among many normal folks, and how this relates to the infamous Milgram experiments from the 1960s.
Not a very rosy train of reflections, so (contrary to my usual avoidance of QTs) I refer to the thread by link and I give this post a CW.
Thank you to @wdlindsy for his thought-provoking thread.

It's being reported now that Trump's approval rating is the highest it has ever been. I watch, unsurprised at the widespread approval of my fellow Americans as the federal government is dismantled, websites taken down, Black and female history erased from government websites, trans people erased, foreign-born people are targeted, hounded, rounded up, shipped out, economic policies that will inflict huge pain on us are enacted, etc. #Trump #MilgramExperiment /1
We will only learn the hard way, it seems, when things fall apart and we ourselves are hurt by the cruelty we have freely, gladly chosen for others — many of us, choosing it, even as we brandish our bibles and our crosses and trot off to church to sing and pray.

When a cunning dictator-to-be harnesses that lust to attain power and inflames that lust in a large sector the population, the consequences are always beyond brutal — including for the very people who applauded him, voted him into office, told him he was doing a splendid job as he hurt their "enemies."

This is America! he was told. Germans may have acted that way. We don't, not in America.
His experiment has been replicated over the years in different periods of time and different cultural-social circumstances. Each time, the results are the same.
There is a deep lust inside us to demean, attack, harm, erase targeted others.

As I watch, I think of what the Milgram experiment proved about us over 60 decades ago.
A majority of us will, told by an authority figure to harm someone else, willingly comply with the order. Even (or especially?) when we witness the pain we're inflicting….
Milgram was brutally attacked for publicizing the results of his experiments.
