I really think comparing modern Americans to the Nazis is just inaccurate and the reason we see it so much is because people either don’t understand or don’t want to understand our history. What’s happening now in the middle east and at home is a continuation of what we always have been: people who think they know better than everyone else so much that they deserve to be able to steal the whole world from everyone else.
Ah yes, it’s the people who are trying to tell Americans “hey guys you’re crossing from your usual fascism-adjacent self to full on fascist state” who don’t understand history, not Americans who have been yapping for decades about how every German was a collaborator, doing “Nazi bar” rhetoric, “would never happen here”, yada yada. Guess what, your whole country is the Nazi bar
I don’t think you get what I’m trying to say. The murderousness of the American Empire dwarfs that of the Nazis by an order of magnitude at least and it’s only through American propaganda and their allies that anyone thinks “Nazi” when they think “genocidal maniac” instead of “American”
government brown shirts disappearing and killing people in the streets
minorities being disappeared to camps where no one can contact them
minorities dying in said camps with claims of inhumane conditions
men with power paraphrasing Hitler, throwing nazi salutes, and otherwise spreading white nationalism
Walk like a duck, talk like a duck. Sure, the US’s history has always been evil as fuck. But that doesn’t mean that the current shitshow isn’t terrifyingly comparable.

The only thing you’re missing from this is who did it first and who was aping who.
Yeah I forgot about Munster too
