* a brief comment:
In "Today's Words of Russell" (see attached image), Russell writes:
"The cat has no sympathy for the mouse; the Romans had no sympathy for any animals except elephants; the Nazis have none for Jews."
He then adds, "and Stalin had none for kulaks."
Now, imagine that this final part had been omitted. If you were asked, "What kind of sentence would you add here?", what sort of example would you choose?
For instance, which of the following examples do you think most closely resembles the structure Russell presents, namely, a ruling power or group that has completely lost all sympathy for a particular other group?
(1) Donald Trump (who began his second term as U.S. President in March of this year) feels sympathy for poor white Americans, but not for poor Black Americans.
(2) Then-Prime Minister Abe, during a campaign speech in Akihabara, was heckled by members of the audience. Pointing at them, he shouted, "We must not lose to people like them!", implying that we, the Liberal Democratic Party, cannot be defeated by those kinds of people.
(3) American conservatives often condemn people who protest against Israel as being "antisemitic," yet show little sympathy when large numbers of Palestinian civilians are killed.
