Professor of psychology Michele Gelfand has found that in times of perceived threat – whether war, economic instability, or climate disaster – societies tend to become more restrictive. ‘When people perceive threat – whether real or imagined – they want strong rules and autocratic leaders to help them survive’, she explains. In a study published in the Behavioural Scientist, she found that even brief exposure to false information about terrorism, overpopulation, or pandemics made participants more likely to favor authoritarian policies." . . . I do not see a shift to the right in Minneapolis. TD

How ironic, yet sad, that the very victims of the Holocaust are being called "Nazis" by the generation supporting those who want all Jews dead and the nation of Israel wiped blank from all maps. In their ignorance they wear the "Palestinian" keffiyeh instead of the swastika armband. TD
