Right-Wing Wingnuts Blame Jews and LGBTQ People for Pandemics
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.”
As Joseph Goebbels, Nazi Reich Minister of Propaganda boasted:
If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
Throughout history, people have believed these lies as many powerful dominant groups depicted or represented subordinated groups in a variety of negative ways to maintain control or mastery. The oppression of subordinated groups is expressed through myths and stereotypes in proverbs, social commentary, literature, jokes, epithets, pictorial depictions, and other cultural forms.
