Mass genocide is the final seductive and murderous fantasy that runs through Islamist groups and through black supremacist movements.
“The world today needs a Hitler,” CNN correspondent Adeel Raja tweeted. Tala Halawa, the BBC’s “Palestinian” specialist, had previously tweeted a rant that included #HitlerWasRight.
Researchers have found that the #HitlerWasRight hashtag was intertwined not just with the usual white supremacists, but with more “progressive” hashtags like #FreePalestine.
Raja, a Pakistani Muslim, and Halawa, who hails from Israel’s so-called ‘West Bank’, don’t fit the image of what people think Hitler’s fanbase looks like, but they’re more typical than you might think.
