On our one and only visit to Salzburg a year ago I saw the same sign for the Zweig center (and took a picture of it!), but it wasn’t open either of the two days we were there. I’m also a great admirer of the man and his work. We may never get back to Salzburg, so I’m glad to learn a little about what’s there.
As much as I hate when Trump haters pull the Trump is Hitler card from the ruble of a bankrupt casino (and as much as I gladly plead guilty I am as anti Trump make A merry ka grating again, I mean hata, aren’t we, shouldn’t we, all) The Don- Addie card…There is is something I can only live on a pipe dream that Selina Meyer, I mean Kamala Harris should have buried The Deplorables super hero in shitte of his own making up….When The Don brought up them”proof” of a “rigged election” on the debate stage…the progressive prosecutor should have had the chops to say, if by tomorrow morning you can have a list of names from your art of the steal playbook, you know the who, why, what, when, where and how “they” rigged the election…Joe Biden and I will admittedly resign our offices and happily swear you in, again, as President …like Joseph Goebbels before him, Steve Bannon and bad company parroted a complete fing BIG LIE that fortunately, only resulted in a white trash riot and his proud little boyz storm troopers smash and crabbing our sacred Capital for a dog day afternoon. But, like with Addie never naming names of those that stabbed the Reich in the back, Donald J Trump has never named any more names then my pillow guy Mike Lindell or Dinesh D’Louza …because the riggers never existed in the first place, but where made up whole cloth by a shameless, mendacious, narcissistic, megalomaniac, crony capitalist pig, anti truth Neo nationalist sociopath. Ashli Babbitt still cannot be reached for comment. God help U.S. We the Living in Idiocracy. Gotta run on. Thanks for taking my rant Onward and Upward. Peace be with you Jay…and P.S. Enjoy Salzburg. May the murdered for a no good cause not be forgotten #REMEMBERASHLIBABBITT. Didn’t I say I gotta run on
Sobering piece, Jay, especially the photos. I am a photographer and was especially struck by the picture following "Another scene." It captures so well the madness of the crowd in all its lust for belonging. It seems we are in the midst of recreating the horrors of the past century, although I hope I am wrong. As a co-Zweigophile, I wonder what he would make of these darkening days. Onto something brighter tomorrow...
There called “liars” who still couldn’t come to grips with their own complicity, or cowardice, in the face of Nazis they very much welcomed when the goose stepping herds crossed the border. Like Hitler, Trump and his bad company of media …sure do know how to make The Walls In the Flesh, Run like Hell, Waiting for The Worms to be prophetic. God help U.S. Peace through superior mental firepower

Sorry, but when I hear "The Silent Woman" I think of the character in "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum"
!
Sobering post. Salzburg is beautiful. Thank you
Thank you, CC.

Thank you, Steven.
Thank you, my friend. We must be ever on guard.
I see reflections of the pictures you posted in the attitudes and behaviours of my fellows;
what is so attractive and addictive about hate?
Jay, I think that the better English translation of the German word "Platz" is "plaza."
I think English borrowed "plaza" from Spanish.
Not a pleasant Austrian memory. Some that I knew - and respected - claimed (in 1969) to have known nothing of the concentration camps . . .

Great stuff, Jay.
Thank you, my man.
Also, harrowing.
