Patriot Purge, Tucker Carlson’s new three-part series, is propaganda built around Donald Trump’s Big Lie of a stolen 2020 election and buttressed by a bizarro world, alt-right and alt-reality retelling of the January 6th insurrection. But Carlson’s message being profoundly dishonest doesn’t stop it from being profoundly dangerous: both because it contains kernels of tough truths the country has been scared to face, and because it follows a classic template of propaganda that has brought down democracies before.

There's one ironclad rule for mad scientist movies: if you show a monstrous caged ape-creature in the first act, that ape-creature must absolutely break loose and wreak havoc before the end of Act III. Just ask George Zucco or John Carradine, they'll tell you. It makes no difference if the film is being made on Gower Gulch, or at Germany's prestigious UfA Studios.

An outlawed Nazi-era marching song titled, "Horst Wessel Lied," has been removed from Apple's iTunes online music store on Thursday. Apple confirmed that it had removed the German version of the marching song, but remained silent on whether it had removed other popular Nazi-era songs. The song, which has been banned in Germany since the end of World War II, is believed to be the unofficial anthem of the Nazis.
It was initially called Die Fahne hoch (The Flag up High) and it was first performed in 1930 at the funeral of a young man who was killed.
The German daily Hannoversche Allgemeine Zeitung also reported that Internet retailer Amazon Germany also has banned tracks by neo-Nazi bands on its list. It is now confirmed that Amazon has also removed the tracks from its databank.

A German marching song, "Horst Wessel Lied," named after a Nazi party activist killed in 1930, was removed by the German version of Apple's iTunes store yesterday, coinciding with Holocaust Memorial Day, after German media revealed that Apple was breaking German law by allowing downloads of the Nazi anthem. Amazon removed the song as well. Sample lyrics from the song include: "Soon will fly Hitler-flags over every street; Slavery will last only a short time longer." An Apple spokesman said another Nazi album called S.S. Protection Squad had also been removed, having been blacklisted by the German government in 2008 for being dangerous to youth. But other titles, like "The Fuhrer Calls," remain available in more obscure sections like "world music." Apple, which moved expeditiously last year to remove songs deemed overly sexual, appears to have been caught unaware by the [...]...
