Populism Leads to Hitler, Pope Francis Warns

The Pope called for more tolerance and warned about populism during a speech at the Vatican on Tuesday, Italian news agency Ansa reports.

“It is important that young people should know how populism is born. I think of Hitler last century, who had promised the development of Germany. That we know how populism starts: by sowing hate. You can’t live sowing hate,” Pope Francis warned.

According to the religious leader more should be taught to young people about the history of World Wars, “so that they do not fall into the same mistake and know how populism spreads.”

The pope made his remarks after a woman told him that she teaches refugees Italian and that she is worried about the anti-migrant sentiment.

Well, as soon as President Trump hints that he wants to snuff out his daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren, I’ll consider that a red flag.

We need to make the definition of Populism to be: “What’s popular among the elites”... Trump is a Nationalist.

“Is the Pope Catholic?”

used to be a rhetorical question.

Maybe he should stop worrying about populism and do something about the crisis going on right under his nose.

Well, he is wrong. Populism leads to George Washington and a free people. Only an elitist would think otherwise.

Andrew Jackson, Abe Lincoln, Huey Long, William Jennings Bryan, Hubert Humphrey, Father Charles Coughlin, FDR and Obama were populists. Which of those turned out to be Hitler?

When you add up all the unarmed innocent people that the Communists murdered during the last century, Hitler was a lightweight. But since the Pope is a Communist, well, we’ll just let the gods of his true ideology slide.
