Schein ist das Wesen der Zeit – Schein unsre Politik, Schein unsre Sittlichkeit, Schein unsre Religion, Schein unsre Wissenschaft. Wer jetzt die Wahrheit sagt, der ist impertinent, »ungesittet«, wer »ungesittet«, unsittlich. Wahrheit ist unsrer Zeit Unsittlichkeit. ↗

— Ludwig Feuerbach

We burned to death 100,000 Japanese civilians in Tokyo - men, women and children. LeMay recognized that what he was doing would be thought immoral if his side had lost. But what makes it immoral if you lose and not immoral if you win? ↗
