It's a natural consequence of the policies of someone whose idea of unifying people is cutting off and marginalizing anyone he disagrees with. "Clinging to guns and religion..." "If I had a son..." "Cool clock..." "The future must not belong to..." "You didn't build that, someone else made it happen..." "Let's remember all the bad things Christians did hundreds of years ago..." When POTUS says that what you think doesn't matter and isn't important, why shouldn't what you didn't build be burned down? You didn't build it, you're not a member of a protected victim class, so what difference does it make?
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
