Why Donald Trump’s success isn’t funny.
Just bringing this back
“Though I do believe trump is a egotistical and bigoted prick, comparing him to Hitler is just wrong. Just call him a dickhead rather than comparing him to Someone who tried to eradicate Jews, the disabled and the LBGTQ communities wholesale”
God, I hate it when people use that argument. You do realize Hitler wasn’t born as a dictator who killed millions of Jews and disabled people, right? People didn’t vote for him because he had already killed Jews. People voted for him because he used to be just the same kind of dickhead Trump is now. Somehow his rhetoric appealed to people because it made them feel like things would get better for them and he conveniently blamed it all on Jews. He didn’t go “LET’S KILL ALL JEWS”, nope. He just identified Jews as the source of the problem for everyone else.
Now tell me Trump isn’t doing that with Mexicans and Muslims? Tell me he isn’t. How can you be so blind not to see that someone like Trump can turn into what Hitler was in the end? Hitler was a person who made his way to power by convincing people of his fucked up worldview. Stop trying to make Hitler this symbol of evil you can’t compare anyone to. Look at his development. Look at it and tell me you can’t see parallels between him and Trump.
We’re not saying Trump is going to commit a genocide the minute he gets into office. But a) Hitler didn’t do that either and b) with that much support in society he is dangerous enough. His brilliant idea to register Muslims so you can recognize them easily and avoid them is already one of those things …. The danger is there. Do you wanna risk it?
and this is why people should study wwii history in depth in schools everywhere
