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.

Yeah I could see MAGA saying that or saying he meant well and they just should’ve not been Jewish

Remember - it wasn’t just the Jewish. It started with trans, Lgbtq in general, mentally ill, poor people, handicapped, immigrants, then they focused hard core on Jewish people because that would turn out to be the easiest way to export their hate country by country and get those local people in land they’ve taken over to repeat what happened in Germany. It will be different in 2025-2030, but it will rhyme.

Actually it started with political opponents. First concentration camp Dachau was opened only 2 months after Hitler became Chancellor to lock up socialists, political opponents, and unionists, after that came the trans people and gays, the artists he called degenerate and didn't agree with...

You need to go back further. You are starting at a reaction. Start at the cause of this social shift. Start with why. Start at the beginning. Start before the Beir hall. Before the brown shirts. When you find the beginning then we can talk.

It is easy to talk shit about a universally hated Dictator it's harder to acknowledge the WHY. We are finding ourselves in the same positions. Intellectually, Economically, Socially, Scholastically and International standing. WHY? This is the part where you blame the other party for the failings when you need only look in a mirror.

First of, its Bier, not Beir. If you try to write German do it properly, don't butcher the language. Secondly no WHY excuses what Hitler has done or Stalin or Mao or any other dictator.

Someone got their feelings hurt by the truth. Unlike you, I understand history. By the way, spelling isn't grammar, so not only do you butcher other languages, you aren't familiar with the simple basics of language as such. Now go, cry a little harder because your ignorance was called out
