The most important question of our time: Are we witnessing the rise of fascism again?
The demise of kindness and empathy, the return of cruelty and fascism are the clear signs of the triumph of selective amnesia
‘The latest far right theory turns compassion into weakness and cruelty into common sense.’- Ros Taylor, formerly at the Guardian, London School of Economics and the BBC

Does the moral vow of 'never again' still hold true, or is history now showing that its application is deeply compromised and selective on matters of atrocities, wars, genocides, and massacres?
The world of politics and political leadership today, once again is: A world devoid of humanity, dignity, empathy, trust, kindness, spirituality, meaning, purpose, morals, and manners.
In a recently published book, ‘The Age of Hitler and How We Will Survive It’ (2025), Alec Ryrie, writes, “the most potent moral figure in western society was Jesus Christ. Now it is Adolf Hitler.”
In this sense, 'What happens when we forget Hitler?' asks Matthew d'Ancona, editor-at-large of The New European/The New World
...'the age of Hitler began not in 1933, when he was appointed chancellor of Germany, but in 1945, when the world united around the principle that the horrors he had unleashed must never be allowed to happen again.’
