I say read but I actually listened to the audio book. It is quite the undertaking since it represents about 56 hours of audio.

I made it about half way through before I had to take a break.

It really did give me a creepy feeling about what was going on.

as to how easy this becomes for some people/adherents of fascist/racist ideology. We must continue to fight the hate of the NPA aka GOP.
