They deleted the video since I reblogged this a few minutes ago. It shows recruitment tactics. Basically, people are born without prejudice. We are taught prejudice by splitting a unified people up into little groups, and it is then that we can be controlled with us versus them speeches. It sounds reasonable to an average citizen, until you hear the bit that targets you, your group, your people. This video was to promote awareness of what to watch out for in movements, filmed 80 years ago. There is no us versus them. There is only us versus the actual problem, not any group of people who maybe aren't relatable to you. We are all real, loving, frightened, but still kind people. You can't blame a group for your difficulties- you can blame bad spending of (stolen by the government) Medicare funds, lack of safety regulations for food processing and airplane building, not enough prevention on rent hikes because of natural disasters. Those are problems. All people, every creed and color, want to live safely, peacefully, and joyfully. That is the goal. We achieve it together. United.
The fact that this is 80 fucking years ago but still just as relevant is terrifying.
