That was fun. The current bunch are ultimately on the same road to tyranny, so I think the theme is a bit too chillingly close to the reality. We may not have a single lunatic to point to like Hitler (who was a very effective lunatic on the whole) but perhaps it is more dangerous to have a whole raft of lessor lunatics who are saving the planet from human beings and view human beings as a plague. That is a view that has no place for human dignity.
They are even worse than Hitler who at least thought some humans were likely to be the ubermensch, but this crowd basically thinks we're all a little less than the animals.
