| Security breaches in Washington D.C. | |

| I'm going to take a quick moment to post a quick primer on being on the | |
| right side of history... In regards to the folks who stormed the capital | |
| and got into areas they were not authorized to be in recently. I didn't | |
| write this, and I don't know who did; but the words ring true. | |
| Huge numbers of our population, good people on both sides, believe in a | |
| complete alternate reality. Alternate facts as it were. But just as | |
| intensely as I believe they are deluded, they think that 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 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 demon- | |
| stration or event and I see Nazis (neo-Nazis, miscellaneous-Nazis, or | |
| the latest-whatever-über-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... | |
| Is there a guy wearing a Camp Aushwitz t-shirt? | |
| Wrong side. | |
| Speakers referring to things Hitler got right? | |
| Wrong side. | |
| Team-spirit face paint and hat with horns? | |
| This is an unclear indicator that could mean anything, but safest to | |
| keep my distance from that guy, even at a football game. | |
| But I always, always, ALWAYS rely on the presence of Nazis as a guiding | |
| light through a fog of disinformation. | |
