YIKES!!!

Looking for info on when it would run again and stumbled across this gem of a thread at the DU.

So I watched 'Third Reich, the Rise" on History Channel

and TWO things really struck me.

1) Something similar CAN happen again, even here in the USA.

2) It's the uniforms. In the 1930's if you were a young person, unemployed and looking for a direction in life... and you saw these guys marching around in these cool-ass uniforms (not my opinion of their uni's) and you could JOIN that group...

It would give one a sense of belonging to a group, to a cause, to something bigger than yourself. And all your neighbors and friends would see you in the uniform too. IMHO... just as many people were drawn to the party by the allure of wearing the uniform as were attracted by the rhetoric.
