He’s been compared the years to Hitler, but unlike Hitler, Jones didn’t gain his followers by appealing to their worst natures. Jones told his followers, “You’re gonna have to give up things. What we’re trying to do is make sure everyone gets a fair share, not that you’re going to get more.”
The author is completely wrong here. Hitler was a "progressive" of his day. Jones demonized the United States government and western civilization. Hitler demonized the Jews and western civilization.
Hitler demanded sacrifice, hard work, and surrendering the self to the collective, just like Jones.
>>Meanwhile, Jones is in the grip of drugs more than ever, and his paranoia is expanding. But there they are 150 miles away from anything, and the only voice they hear every night is Jones telling them news from America, that concentration camps for blacks have just been opened, that the Army is now shooting down even more dissidents just like us. So you’ve got exhausted people who are malnourished, and they’re hearing this over and over from Jones.
sounds like the rhetoric from the left, BLM ranting against police shooting men just because they are black, Democrats railing against “trump’s” concentration camps on the border separating mothers from their children. All Day, Every Day, 24 hour news cycle on cable tv “news” and “entertainment”.
