This Wall Street Journal article, discussed during the podcast, explored the idea that historical atrocities could easily happen in modern America, and how people are lulled into complacency. It was a key element to the podcast's discussion on political violence and societal decline.
It's a Wall Street Journal article, and when I referenced in the beginning by Gary Saul Marson, Dostoevsky knew it can happen here.

This Wall Street Journal article, discussed during the podcast, explored the idea that historical atrocities could easily happen in modern America, and how people are lulled into complacency. It was a key element to the podcast's discussion on political violence and societal decline.
It's a Wall Street Journal article, and when I referenced in the beginning by Gary Saul Marson, Dostoevsky knew it can happen here.
In one case that particularly shocked Dostoevsky, a young child forced to watch her father being flayed alive completely. He goes on, you think this stuff can't happen here? Nah, not here in the United States.
But if some progressive expert were to come up with a theory showing that sometimes flaying skins off people can benefit the right cause because you know the ends justify the means. And if that expert were to express his view using the appropriate style, then believe me there would be respectable people among us willing to carry out the idea.
Despite our sophistication and professions of compassion, all that's needed is for some new fad to appear and people would be instantly transformed.
