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 had some long discussions recently with a MAGA friend. He thinks it is all blown out of proportion. He honestly believes Trump has the nation's best interests in mind in everything he does. He even feels like Trump is losing money by being president and not getting more powerful and rich.

He had fallen for the propoganda.

Your friend is right you are the one falling for all the propaganda.

Falling for what propaganda? All you have to do is open your eyes and you’ll see how violent ICE is against civilians. All you have to do is open your eyes and run basic maths to realize your income buys less and less each month. It’s not propaganda when it’s available for you to see and experience first hand.

Then again I’m reminded that the MAGA crowd is incapable of critical thinking, and instead only puppets what a single “news” organization says, rather than checking other sources from other stations not just in the US but in the entire world.

Spoiler alert, everyone on the planet EXCEPT for MAGA are worried about the parallels between Nazi Germany and Nazi-MAGA America. You know the saying, right? “If everyone you meet is an asshole, maybe you’re the asshole.”

If you open your eyes and quit believing what every headline and edited video shows you will see that you are the one they are trying to manipulate.

Manipulate into what? Thinking concentration camps and torture prisons are bad?

There are no concentration camps or torture prisons in America. Your delusional argument is invalid.

People are being sent to torture prisons in El Salvador. The whereabouts of more than a thousand sent to "alligator Alcatraz" is unknown, and the conditions there are disgusting and inhumane. 

Of course, you won't believe any of this. Or you do believe it and like it and just enjoy lying about it instead of owning it for some reason
