“wHeRe Is Ja RuLe”
I fucking hate these jokes, they were unfunny THE SECOND they started being made. FFS
Those who see it care and those who don’t see it don’t care even if you show it to them.
Might it be that they were not taught who Hitler was? History, and Civics, are not taught in any detail any more.
Republicans are fascists and would vote for Hitler given a chance to do so.
The problem is that a large portion of Americans want fascism and would welcome the rise of the Fourth Reich.
Fun fact, Hitlers first position in government was when he was appointed Chancellor by the conservative compromise president that moderates and the non-Communist Left coalesced around. He was an old status quo guy who died in office during his second term. The Federal govt had been woefully inadequate to deal with the challenges of the time, and legislative gridlock allowed non-Nazi conservatives to gain power and then give it over to the Nazis.
They see a guy who can criminalize everyone who isn’t straight white and male. They like that.
They know that he is, that’s why they like him.
I’m not really sure calling them fucking idiots will change their minds.
Oh they know he’s Hitler. That’s the appeal. He will provide the white nationalists with the same unearned privilege they had in the 1950s simply by being white and Christian.
Dumb motherfuckers are literally of the mindset of “He’s not *actually Hitler* unless he succeeds in a genocide” like they will never be convinced until its much too late.
Having read more about the rise of Hitler, Trump is it and that old quote of being draped in the flag.
Except he sexually assaulted the flag.
I have wondered since I was a young kid how people could possibly have supported Hitler and Nazism. We’re seeing it unfold in real time now.
Fucking idiots covers it pretty well actually
Part of the problem with comparing every one to Hitler is that as long as someone falls short of Genocide it isn’t seen as bad. Pinochet never engaged in Genocide, turns out evil is quite the spectrum and just because one HASN’T committed Genocide it doesn’t mean you aren’t evil.
Trump will ignore the constitution, that’s enough. It’s not like it’s okay if he only kills political opponents and never engages in Genocide.
(…and before anyone accuses Hamas or Israel of Genocide that’s part of what I’m talking about. THERE’S A WHOLE SPECTRUM OF EVIL before you try to wipe a people off the face of the earth. I’m not getting into hyperbole.)
Comments in here are pretty funny, obviously people are too focused on 1939-1945 Hitler and not 1933-1938 Hitler.
Any and all people who voted for Trump in the past, or who will vote for him, are directly complicit in his crimes. They should be punished.
This kind of talk doesn’t help. It only alienates people.
Yep, history’s wheeling back again, and not in a good way. The flag assault was just a peep into the madness ahead.
Folks help me out here: I tend to stereotype Trumpers as aged white people. They no longer have an ingrained purpose: raising kids, providing for family, saving for retirement, etc… So now Trump has given their lives new meaning and purpose. While I am opposed to Trump, these folks are now emotionally attached and any logic falls on deaf ears. Thoughts?
The only reason Ms. Lewis says that is that it is pretty much true. No mustache, though.
Not to defend him, by any means, but at least Hitler could construct full sentences. Trump can’t even manage that when left on his own.
Not sure if anyone heard Jennifer Lewis on Sirius Progressive this past week, she gave a truthful moving speech. I was very impressed with her direct statements. Trump is the next Hitler!
Hitler would be insulted by the comparison.
To be fair…they *are* fucking idiots.
Trump is Great Value Hitler.
Trump is, “We have Hitler at home.”
Trump wishes he was Hitler.
Hitler actually had charisma.
Trump is just a cold turd, loved by other cold turds.
There’s no substance beyond what is best for Trump.
Hitler had principles, and values. He was a man of firmly held convictions.
Trump seems to avoid convictions like the plague, puns intended. Trump is whatever you want him to be.
Trump is everything, and nothing at the same time.
Trump honestly reminds me more of Jim Jones than Hitler.
You think dems would be more worried, then, rather than working with the party who caters to this fascist.
And millions of people will vote for him anyway, against their own interests, just to “own the libs.” To quote Ron White, “you can’t fix stupid.”
I don’t think Trump is Hitler, but I do think he’s the closest we’ve had to an authoritarian/fascist with any real power in America in my lifetime.
My biggest concern is that if he wins, he will go full authoritarian.
The history of cult followers is explicit – the cult leader dictates reality – even to the point of sacrificing the followers.
History always rhymes. It doesn’t look exactly the same every time. Trump is America’s version of mentally deficient Hitler.
This is coming from the group that said they’d vote for Putin. Fuck their opinion.
