A reminder for those with amnesia from things that went on before Trump's re-election in November last year:
Be aware of things going on that will affect you now, or later. This is a book with dangerous ideas for those of a certain mindset.The book's Forward is by Steve Bannon. JD Vance endorsed a book calling far-left 'unhumans,' and praising fascist dictators.
Then...take a look at everything that has happened since January of this year.

🤮 New Book ‘Unhumans’ 🤮

#JDVance and the language of #Genocide

#Trump's VP pick endorses the tactic of #Dehumanization

“You Americans, you are so naïve. You think evil is going to come into your houses wearing big black boots. It doesn’t come like that. Look at the language. It begins in the language" – #MarieHowe

In the latest example of his dangerous extremism, J.D. Vance has enthusiastically promoted a book that uses genocidal language to stoke hatred

#Unhumans is a twisted political incantation by right-wing conspiracy theorists Jack #Posobiec and Joshua Lisec, designed to inspire hatred and terror.

The word “fascist” gets thrown around a lot in politics -- but it’s hard to find a more apt one for “#Unhumans,” which came out last month.
The book argues that leftists don’t deserve the status of human beings
— that they are, as the title says, unhumans
— and that they are waging a shadow war against all that is good and decent, which will end in apocalyptic slaughter if they are not stopped. “As they are opposed to humanity itself, they place themselves outside of the category completely, in an entirely new misery-driven subdivision, the unhuman,” write Posobiec and Lisec.

The endorsement of the book by prominent Republicans is a reminder of how #extremist and far away from reality the #Republican Party is now.
Trump’s running mate JD #Vance wrote a blurb for it
and so did Tucker #Carlson, Donald Trump #Jr., and Michael #Flynn, Trump’s National Security Advisor.
Steve #Bannon wrote the foreword.
These guys are weird and unhinged and dangerous because they are somehow at the center of the Republican Party.

In a normal political environment, there would be little need to pay attention to a new book by the far-right provocateur Jack Posobiec, who is probably best known for promoting the conspiracy theory that Democrats ran a satanic child abuse ring beneath a popular Washington pizzeria. But “Unhumans,” an anti-democratic screed that Posobiec co-wrote with the professional ghostwriter Joshua Lisec, comes with endorsements from some of the most influential people in Republican politics, including, most significantly, vice-presidential candidate JD Vance.
