I didn’t write this but love what it says about how to determine if you’re the deluded one.

Huge numbers of our population believe in a complete alternate reality. Alternate facts, as it were.

But just as intensely as I believe they are deluded, they think I am the one who is deluded. Maybe I am. So how can I be confident in my perception? It can be quite difficult.

But I have found that in times of political confusion — particularly when emotions are running high and creating tunnel vision — the presence of Nazis can be an extremely helpful indicator.

If I am attending a local demonstration or event and I see Nazis — neo-Nazis, miscellaneous Nazis, master-race Nazis, or the latest-whatever-uber-mythology-Nazis — I figure out which side they are on.

And if they are on my side of the demonstration? I am on the wrong side. It is tough to argue moral equivalence when I am standing next to a Nazi.

Look to my right: Is there a guy wearing a 6MWE (6 million wasn’t enough) T-shirt? I am on the wrong side.

Look to my left: If that guy is wearing a Camp Auschwitz T-shirt. Wrong side.

Are speakers being applauded for referring to things that Hitler got right? Wrong side.

I can always, always, always rely on the presence of Nazis as a guiding light through a fog of disinformation.

Some things are relative, and politics can absolutely have its opposing sides and grey areas. But evil and good are absolute. As are the lessons of history. So just look for the Nazis ... and make your own decisions.
