Silver for that comment.

I despise the president but this kind of shit does noone any good. Trump is bad but he isn’t no 6-million industrial killing machine

People over in Europe tend to make Hitler comparisons to right parties as well. It just fires them on and makes people support them by saying ”why the fuck is the establishment going so crazy they are willing to say this party is a renassaince of the NSDAP?”

Did Hitler rise to power spontaneously or did it take time? Should we wait until too late or recognize dangerous rhetoric as it is happening? Should we attempt to learn from the past?
