re: #30 Eclectic Cyborg

I knew Haspel would get confirmed. Fucking knew it.

We are in the hands of devils. Even the fucking Nazis did not publicly proclaim that their tortures and atrocities were right and lawful. This is not to say that Haspel and the CIA contractors are equivalent to Nazis, they aren’t, but it is a matter of degree rather than of substance. The Nazis at least had enough self-awareness not to baldly assert that wrong was right or admit that they were pursuing policies that contradicted all the civilized values for which they allegedly stood. Their constituency, the German masses, might not have tolerated it either if they had known, which doesn’t say much for the Trump base.
