Uncanny

Mr Death

Apparently, this is a caricature of Fred Leuchter, a Holocaust denier who developed technology for executing people.

At first glance, though, I thought it was someone whose politics are quite far removed: Bob Brown.

    speak of the devil, I saw a documentary about that guy once on SBS. A deeply creepy man, probably somewhat of an idiot-savant.

    Mind you the resemblence is pretty superficial. The real life Fred looked more like the guy who fixes my computer.

    I recommend the great documentary to anyone who is interested in the Holocaust denial phenomenon, and in human psychology now that I think of it: “Mr. Death: the Rise and Fall of Fred A. Leuchter, Jr.”

    Oh, the documentary is AMAZING. Very very very worth watching.
