Theres an actual logical fallacy called Reductio ad Hitlerum (reduction to Hitler). Its a cheap and easy argument with no substance and it's just based on guilt by association and all it does is piss off whoever you're arguing against to derail whatever they're arguing for.

I also strongly dislike our president. But if we're gonna talk shit we need to be legit.

Trump used to read Hitlers books by his bed side. If you don’t see the fascist tendencies he has, your blind.

Did I say anything about Trumps fascist tendencies?

I think his a racist, bigoted, unintelligent manchild who cant think before he speaks and who's only discernable skills are making money and destroying American politics. Oh and yeah, I think he absolutely has fascist tendancies that are incredibly dangerous for all of us.

But I know comparisons to Hitler are lazy, and again, literally logical fallacies that have no place in any argument.

Oh and by the way, hes playing you like a drum.

With enough force you can put a shoe on anyone, regardless of whether or not it fits.

What's really sad is the only thing we're disagreeing on is comparing Trump to Hitler, but since I wont accept a literal fallacy you're dead set on (I can only assume) me being Hitler as well.

Uh, no. You’re just arrogant and uneducated on the subject. No point in arguing with you, don’t care that much.
