what is the point . people should be angry about ice shooting citizens in the streets, why try to make fun of them for made up reasons. and why do I keep seeing posts with this talking point about not not making comparisons to Nazi germany

Why you shouldn’t compare the US to Nazi Germany?

US Americans are learning right from the start how awesome their country is. The best in everything, no other country can compete, no other country is better than them.

Also they are so proud to have won against Nazi Germany and they also think that it was solely them who did this. Allies? No need to mention them.

So it’s unthinkable to them, that the best country in the world, their country, could be (even if only partially) as bad as Nazi Germany, the one they defeated on their own.

They they they. The US has 350 million people and the majority of them don't have a fraction of the ultra patriotism you're describing.

Don't pretend like "Americans" wanted this. Very few people are getting what's coming to them

Germany had a population of 65 mio. in 1933. Compared to Trump Hitler got less of the votes. The majority didnt have a fraction of the ultra nazism. Dont pretend like "Germans" wanted this. Very few people knew what was coming for them.

Well did that stop Hitler?
