Whatever Became Of A Sense Of History?

It’s been replaced, in media and academic elites, by senseless hysterics. “The constant invoking of the Holocaust, the Nazis, and now Kristallnacht (the unofficial beginning of the Holocaust, a night in 1938 when German Jews were beaten to death, synagogues were burned, and Jewish shops were destroyed) only minimizes the evils of Nazism and the Holocaust,” Dennis Prager writes. “A young American who, having gone to a typical university, probably knows nothing about the Nazis and the Holocaust will now think Nazism and the Holocaust were 20th-century expressions of Trump and American conservatism.”

“All this hysteria is built on next to nothing.”
