Lowry's rationalizations are the sort of thing fascist regimes throughout history have thrived on. They lead to nowhere good. The deniers, the rationalizers, they're the real reason fascists take over.

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Great saying and very applicable, except Lowry probably can't be classified as a "good man."
