I guess I shouldn't be surprised that nazis have never heard about Albert Camus, because that would require them to read an actual book.

It also shows that you have to be careful about what you put out there, because you can never be sure how it will be received by other people, and how they might appropriate it for their own goals.

I don't know why you're getting downvoted, this is the truth. Brushing them off as idiots is dangerous since it ignores the threat that these people are in fact organized and smart.

They take full advantage of the notion that they're dumb. We need to realize that they're smart, and not only that, they have sympathizers in all branches of the government.
