despite Trump, I still believe our global culture moving from monolithic to polylithic

Older WASPs haven't got enough smarts to save this world from its overarching environmental, social and climate crisis --- not on their own.

They need to welcome ideas and criticism from all - from women, other religions, other ethnicities, other nations, other generations : for only with help from all, is there hope for all.

Embedded within Modernity, its warring ideologies all go down with its sinking ship

That all of yesterday's ideologies are all equally in trouble , all at the same, isn't as remarkable as it seems.

WWII's limited "worldview" war (all the clashing ideologies shared a common worldview)

Militarily, but not culturally, WWII was History's biggest war by far.

Reputed height of Trump Towers versus actual height of NS legislature building explains Dawson

Donald Trump's latest 'Big Lie' --- that a Clinton presidency would triple the population of America in one week (650 million more aliens in one week was his actual words !) --- has, entirely typically, gotten far more attention among non-presidential-voting humanity outside America, than inside that nation.

Monoculturalism KNOWS the one right easy way ahead - so who needs alternatives, allies... or employees ?

While that whole violent era between 1875 and 1965 was notably and horribly selfish, surprisingly,  this was actually incidental to its main thrust.

Accurate detailed reports of the Holocaust killings were "published" in NYT 5 years before they became "popular"

Publish early and accurate details of a global horror story in the Fall of 1941 --- but then bury it in a small story on page six and that's all, is to effectively kill that story with benign neglect.

Doing just enough to avoid the danger you can later be found to have failed to publish a world-class scoop on the planned murder of millions.

If those early accurate accounts of the various means being employed towards the total destruction of all of Eastern Europe's Jews had been put on the NYT front page, followed by a major editorial and a few opinion pieces from prominent pundits, the story might have 'caught fire' and gone from being merely tokenly 'published' to a truly widely discussed 'popular' news story.

It was not ---- so most people can honestly claim they had never 'heard' of the Holocaust details until the Fall of 1945....

Monoculturalism isn't just the thousands who murdered Jews and Roma but also the billions who were bystanders

It is comforting to billions of us - some of us who lived through WWII and the rest direct descendants of others who lived through that war - to see that much of the current Holocaust discussion now  focusses on the mindset of the thousands of individuals who directly murdered tens of millions of people in cold blood between 1939 and 1945.
