It didnt start with gas chambers

[Tradewind]

I think you guys just should think about not voting people into office who want to win with hatred against other cultures and religions, thats all.

That way it started in germany.

There's a bit more to it though, really.

WW1
Weimar
Hyperinflation
Imperialism was still a thing.
Lack of the internet/global media in general.

The idea of a second Hitler, as awful as Trump is, is pretty ludicrous.

[Cerilis]

I guess if you twist it enough you can compare almost everything with the nazis.

[Sindile]

Nice to see that this thread can stay open while a pic of a meeting can't...

I dont think it will be jews for trump. But islamists obviously.

[Darkeon]

Just like with Clinton! Just because she hasn't murdered any Jews yet doesn't mean she won't

I don't want anyone to panic... but we might on unto something here..

C-L-I-N-T-O-N

See? Same number of letters - I'm sure it's a stretch but it's a start!

[Xjev]

Cruz was worse. Trump is just a media clown who talks shit and forgets it tomorrow

Not every populist politician pandering to idiots is a mass murderer, if they were the population of the planet would be about 12 people.

[Teebone]

Hitler? Nah. Comparable more to Columbus.

Wow, Godwin's law fired up fast on this one!

[Flatspriest]

As president, Trump would not have the authority or power to do most of what he says he will. He cannot build a wall and make Mexico pay for it. He doesn't have the power nor the sway over Mexico to force a different sovereign country to do anything they don't want to do. He is nothing like a nazi and is more like the stupid kid in class everyone votes to be home-coming king due to feeling sorry for his mental deficiencies. Unfortunately, he will most likely win it all due to who his opponents can be and him being the least evil of the candidates.

Cruz was a religious fanatic. Trump is a right wing populist.

Ring wing populism lead to Orban in Hungary and to Erdogan in turkeye. And to PIS in poland.

Well, and yes, to hitler in germany. Thats no godwin, as the ideas and words really are the same.

"Make america great again!"

"Lasst und das Groß-Deutsche Reich errichten!" (lets create the great german reich, the third reich)

Wow, Godwin's law fired up fast on this one!

You can't Godwin a thread that starts with talking about gas chambers in the OP. That's not what Godwin's law is about.

The problem is, that the comparision is valid, but that the americans just ignore it.

They want to vote anti-establishment, and dont care about the fact they vote a right wing populist into office.

But no matter how much and often you heard it:

Yes, trump comes from the same political source national socialism is based on. Yes, his hate speeches arent different from those of the nationalsoziaillistische Arbeiterpartei in germany in the early 20s and 30s in the early 20th century. And yes, he uses other cultures and religions as scapegoats as every right wing party did since start of the 20th century.

Every right wing populist is like a Nazi? Come on buddy...

Where is your evidence that he wants to exterminate Muslims?

[Demona3]

And with trump, it also starts in america. Be cautious, whom you vote into office.

Give me a break. Go vote for your Hillary then, I bet she'll be soooooooo much better. After all, she wants to take away your guns the min. she gets into office.

People said this crap about Obama, it won't happen. Hillary isn't a very good candidate either but don't make shit up.

[Karamaru]

I'd would say this this thread went screaming into Godwin's chasm.

Obama was also said to be going to build communism in America... Well, he still has a few months left to do that!
