In my opinion, if anything, this letter will piss off the administrators of the Holocaust Museum even more by trying to compare the two...

This is a major push by the left to get the stupid emotional suburban women vote in 2020.

Damn leftists are pissing me off! How dare they compare holocaust victims of Nazis to the pampered line-jumper rats willingly coming here breaking our laws, these illegals get free food and medicine from us and can willingly leave - please leave! Damn illegal latino aliens go back and don’t come back!

Oh, I hope they stand up for themselves. The Far Left has a lot of nerve comparing the slaughter of 6M who were trying to get away to the temporary inconveniencing of millions trying to force their way IN.

Simple thing. Look at the list of these “scholars”, and first compare them to the list of known antisemites.

Then add the rest to the list of known antisemites.

And make sure that every time their names come up, they are identified as being antisemites.

Make sure that their schools and their alumni, their fellow faculty members, and especially their grad students and prospective undergraduate students are aware that they are antisemites.

Definitely lump them together with other known antisemites, especially neo-Nazis.

“Enormous state university has 12 known antisemites in its faculty.”

Then start to question those who are associated with them, like publishers, to ask them if they are aware that they publish books by “known antisemites”.

And where were they when Obama was the one “putting children in cages” and treating people “just like the Holocaust?” I didn’t see any Holocaust comparisons then!

One could hardly characterize as “scholars” people who argue that seeking voluntary confinement for 21 days as a result of ILLEGALLY ENTERING THE USA is the same as being forcibly arrested because of an accident of birth and held in a death camp!

The idiots who are making this insane claim have lost their grip on reality, if they ever had it!

Yup.

You must be made to promote 2+2=5 if we say so. And you must actually believe it.
