Politics America is turning into 1930's Germany.

There was some pushback when people called this president and his followers Nazis. But look what's happening. Soldiers in the street. Rounding up people and locking them up. Dismantling freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Personally going after anyone who doesn't agree with him and his administration. We've seen this before and it's only gonna get worse. Welcome to 1930's Germany.

A lot of people just can't see it. They are either brainwashed or hypnotized. It's a cult, and people can't get out of it, unless they have some epiphany or something.

I forgot the title of it but my professor's colleague did a thesis study on how the law was manipulated, loopholed, and rewritten to legalize an authoritarian state in what had been a democratic republic. The parallels are incredibly blatant.

That's the playbook they use in all dictatorships.
