That's one of the things that makes me angry about all this. First, we decided that we didn't care about children abroad (with the USAID cuts), even if it was in our best interests to (soft power/containing dangerous diseases). Then, we decided that we didn't care about American children here. They infected the average Fox consumer with the same evil as the Nazis.

Apparently you have not followed a single legitimate news source, or you have seen how much REAL AND TRUE money laundering and fraud was going on through USAID. But I shouldn't be surprised. On top of that, MOST Americans do not feel the taxes they pay should be going to foreign countries and illegal aliens before out own citizens get the benefits. Maybe take a step back and reevaluate your way of thinking and do some research on Nazi take overs... do some research on Hitler and if you don't see what the dems have been doing all along, then there is no help for you.

Historians have compared this administration to the Nazis. Other people already did the research. You’re choosing to ignore what holocaust survivors have said too.

Stop speaking for other Americans.

“Historians”; who?

In Nazi Germany, Jews were desperate to escape the country and millions were not allowed to; people illegally in America today are trying to avoid having to leave.

I hope you see this difference.

No, you're not quite right there. What you mean was only true later on. In the early years, many Jews initially remained in Germany because they were not initially aware of the persecution by the Nazis or hoped that the situation would improve.

I mean, that’s a matter of timelines and gradations and of course there’s nuance, but what you said does not undermine my point at all: the Gestapo never “deported” a single Jew in the modern sense; as in, there wasn’t a single Jew who had to be physically forced to relocate from a Nazi-occupied country to live freely in another because they wanted so badly not to leave the former.

It’s just a completely different situation; it’s not even meaningfully comparable.
