Hey! Don’t you guys at the New York Times have some stories on Nazi concentration camps you have to suppress or something?

Orwell was a warning, they are using it as a playbook.

We should do something about that.

I always wondered how Nazi Germany happened too, especially considering how smart they are.

It seems if you brainwash most that there’s a specific identity within a population that you can blame for all problems you can dehumanize them and, in the minds of the radicals, legitimize murder. Those in power using their useful idiots.

Today it is conservatives. Social media has enabled the destruction of anyone, globally, the instant the militants get triggered. Now it is evolving to hunting them down and executing them.

These are Nazi tactics. Never again.

They must be kidding! Trump has been condemning it every day, constantly. Will the liberal media ever stop lying to defend Biden?

I've tried to explain to my liberal friends for years - reading the NY Times makes you stupider.

But they keep reading it and getting stupider.

There are parallels to our present circumstances and the rise of Hitler, but there are also some distinct differences.

Fear and despair united Germany. In fact, the only nation that was more united at that time was Japan (religious motive). Hitler created the fear and offered the solution via German Nationalism. He simply exterminated those he perceived as a threat or those who disagreed with him and the majority ignored it and the monster was created.

The democrats have divided the country for decades based on identity politics. Their media allies have promoted fear and hysteria to make some people more pliable to their promises, but our nation remains deeply divided and there is no one leader who could rise under our current construct.

Our founders understood the importance of states and a certain autonomy of the states. While we have trended towards centralized government, the experiment of semi-autonomous states is a far different setting. Our story is far more likely to end in civil strife and a tale of two nations and two worldviews - the “city-states” vs “flyover country”.

It is an interesting historical comparison in some ways, but the constitutional fabric and diversity within our own nation makes it a far different stage. Your words ring true for some of the country, but not the entire country.

OK... So if I fire my doublebarrel thru my door to keep someone away, is that violent. Joe can’t deny his recommendation.
