Yet so many here don't like my Nazi comparisons.

@sassygirl3869

They don't like to be held to account for their actions or or their sympathies.

Also, I don't know how you feel about this, but there's a Jewish segment that doesn't like any comparisons to that Period or to Nazi behavior. Its understandable, but there are times when the comparisons are just too similar to ignore or stand on principle without calling it out. Some analogies are justt too apt.

@t1nick most Jews I know make those comparisons.I think its the Orthodox who unfortunately support Trump who do.

>so many here don't like my Nazi comparisons.

The big thing about Nazi comparisons is most of the time people get it wrong. They don't understand how Hitler came to office; they don't understand the philosophy of Nazism. Often it comes down to "Everybody I don't like is a Nazi."

@sassygirl3869 those that get butt hurt about the Nazi comparisons probably don't want to admit it is happening again. This time in the U.S.

@WonderWartHog99

Its not so much how or why he came to office. Your missing the point. Its about the actions of he and his followers and the terror and fear they perpetuate on their way up and at their peak. Its about the singling out groups they feel superior to (deemed inferior) and how they targeted them and persecuted them, and created false accusations and propaganda to rationalize thier actions

@t1nick > Its about the actions of he and his followers and the terror and fea they perpetuate on their way up and at their peak

Discrimination and ethnic hated are everywhere. Fascism is about dominating other countries either imperialistically or militarily. It's always over looked when people start nattering on about we're turning into a Nazi country. There are no plans to invade and crush Mexico for economic gain. Additionally Hitler attained power by a system that isn't the same as the US Constitution.

Therefore when I hear people comparing our country to Nazi Germany, I look at it as shallow bullshit "everybody I hate is a Nazi."

>those that get butt hurt about the Nazi comparisons probably don't want to admit it is happening again.

It's not butt hurt, it's a gasping knowledge of how bogus the claim is. Nazism rose during a post war depression dictated by the allies that won the war. In the US the stock market is at an all time high. Nobody has successfully invaded the US and dictated crippling post war terms.

If Nazism/fascism was developing in America, we'd be planning to invade Mexico or Canada for economic gain and arming most of our citizens.

Claiming the US is turning into Nazi Germany is so bogus.

@WonderWartHog99

You are so misdirected. You are looking for a one to one correlation. Something be similar or hold vestiges of similarity without being exactly identical. It's not that easy. And Fascism is not always outward acting, it can be internally directed.

@WonderWartHog99

Read Hannh Arent's "Totalatarisnism".

@t1nick Can't you give me the synopsis? The "go read a book" is another way of saying "I read it but I didn't understand it."

Here's one short version of what Nazism is:

"Nazi fascism’s ideology included a racial theory which denigrated “non-Aryans,” extreme nationalism which called for the unification of all German-speaking peoples, the use of private paramilitary organizations to stifle dissent and terrorize opposition, and the centralization of decision-making by, and loyalty to, a single leader."

Now here's the gig: name what solely English speaking ethic group is being unified and what paramilitary organizations are being used to create a Nazi state in America?

Furthermore under Nazism there is only one political party. See anyone smashing the Democratic party?

The web site I cited will sum it up for you a lot faster than reading a whole stinking book.

I can cherry pick too.

Totalitarianism is a form of government in which all societal resources are monopolized by the state in an effort to penetrate and control all aspects of public and private life (Evangelical Christian direction of policy), through the state’s use of propaganda (FOX News and the charge of "fake news" ), terror ("Send her back), and technology (reliance on the oil, gas, & coal industries to direct policy and denial of the climate change issue despite iverwhelmongvevidence supporting).

Totalitarian ideologies reject the existing society as corrupt (rigged system, unregistered illegals voting in lastvelection) , immoral (appointmentbof far right wing judges to the Supreme Court, exhibiting serious moral character flaws) and beyond reform (again rigged system and " fake news," ) project an alternative society in which these wrongs are to be redressed, and provide plans and programs for realizing the alternative order. These ideologies, supported by propaganda campaigns, demand total conformity on the part of the people.

Totalitarian forms of organization enforce this demand for conformity. Totalitarian societies are hierarchies dominated by one political party and usually by a single leader. The party penetrates the entire country through regional, provincial, local and “primary” (party-cell) organization. Youth, professional, cultural, and sports groups supplement the party’s political control. A paramilitary secret police ensures compliance. Information and ideas are effectively organized through the control of television, radio, the press, and education at all levels.

Your reluctance to "read" what is considered the defining work on fascism, suggests that:

1. like our President, you have difficulty reading, if I had the books on tape version I would srntbit ti you, but again like our Oresident you probably couldn't focus long enough to understand;

You have a very narrow scope of how you choose to package and apply a concept. You seem incapable of expanding an idea and apply the basic tenets to a bigger universe. With that I will let you flounder in you small pond of mediocrity.
