In 1939, the eugenics movement growing throughout the West did its worst in Nazi Germany. Through the Aktion T4 euthanasia program, five asylums and an abandoned jail were transformed into gas chambers. Tens of thousands of lives—predominantly adults with neuropsychiatric conditions—were extinguished in those structures, ultimately paving the way for the horrors of the Holocaust.   Check out our new bi-w...

Get the book, Bad Energy here: https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/2772-bad-energy   In Bad Energy, award-winning journalist Joshua Frank argues that the green energy transition is driven not by an effort to save the planet but by profit incentives.

And worse, renewables simply cannot match our ever-expanding demand for energy, driven in no small part by the rapid proli...
