Not long after Nazi Germany in year 1951... not long before Sunday February 28, 1954... understandings were being published.

“The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the convinced Communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction (i.e., the reality of experience) and the distinction between true and false (i.e., the standards of thought) no longer exist.” ― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism, 1951

“Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies, their propaganda is marked by its extreme contempt for facts as such, for in their opinion fact depends entirely on the power of man who can fabricate it.” ― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism, 1951

“Before mass leaders seize the power to fit reality to their lies" - 1951

And that is why I am placing this topic under "Tower of Babel", and we could have an "Alternate Reality" where we focus on this common ground.

Why are we not making a Super Wikipedia of authentic facts and understandings across all the world? Why are we letting bullshit and distortion, information warfare, take over? Why are we letting hate become normal - when it never should have been normal in the first place. Why are we not learning from World War Two, what we understood on Sunday February 28, 1954 - that hate is toxic, and we keep passing toxic hate as a value down to each other. It is year 2025, we have had the time to stop passing down hate and face up to Sunday February 28, 1954 understandings.
