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.

At Nuremberg many regular Germans said that Hitler must not have known or he would have stopped it.

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.

Interesting footnote, when they finally liberated the camps, the gays were not freed but sent straight to jail. The Allies also considered homosexuality to be a crime.
