'Boadicea' was the name in my history book in England. It's only now living in the USA that I refer to the Queen as 'Boudica'.

@boud Thank you, especially your viewpoints having lived in two related cultures.

As a child, Boudica was the first story in my first history book, a book I read and re-read.

Confine searches to insular professional and social networks;
Aren't looking hard enough or don't want to find it;
Have stuck many people of color in roles that lack a direct connection to profits.

AuschwitzMuseum on X:

At Auschwitz we see the end of the long process. It's important to remember that the Holocaust did not start from gas chambers & murder.

The hatred slowly developed from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice, through legal exclusion, escalating violence & dehumanization.

To get people to embrace violence, fill them with existential dread- the fear that it's the Leader or the abyss. This is an incitement to violence speech. Trump is a propaganda machine devoted to destroying America.
