Nazi Germany didn't start out with a fully enabled fascist machine, either

Neither did Italy, or Spain. It was built up slowly and deliberately (not to mention violently) over a period of years.

And it succeeded because, from the start, the "good Germans" failed to fully recognize it and call it out for what it was. Just like you are doing right now. Later on, there was room for them at the camps, too.

You couldn't be more wrong. It started out here just like it did there, using the same play book, following the same rhythm. This isn't just a few crazies, or a 'necessary evil' to stop the Communists, the labor unions and the racially inferior. The Right has lost control of their Frankenstein monster. It has become self-aware and self-sufficient. And it is only interested in its own self-preservation.

No, I'm not saying we'll wind up just like Nazi Germany. History never repeats itself exactly. But the same patterns and
personalities are in place, built up on the same pre-existing conditions and you fail to recognize them at our peril.

What we are seeing now is a manifestation of an evil that exists in all nations, but has always been particularly strong in ours. But it has never been stronger than it is now, and it has never flourished as much here as it is right now. If Trump wins in November, the process will be irreversible, and by 2024 it will be complete.

You have grossly underestimated the price some "good Americans" are willing to pay for a tax cut, the end of regulations on business, a stop to abortions, a dismantling of the safety net and unrestricted trade and circulation of firearms.

Stop making excuses for these bastards.

You are entitled to your response, but I will not discuss this any further. It is clear by now that it is pointless.
