Draft dodging piece of shit tries telling me, a left leaning veteran of the US Marine Corps, that I am vermin…on veteran’s day. Yeah, get fucked, asshole.
“This vermin must be destroyed. The Jews are our sworn enemies, and at the end of this year there will not be a Jew left in Germany.” — Hitler, 1939
“We will root out the Communists, Marxists … and Radical Left Thugs that live like vermin within … our country.” — Trump, today
Not just that, Hitler also wanted leftist purged… and did. Because leftists were the primary group opposing him.
I think people are misinterpreting your comment as “the Nazis originated from leftists” versus what I think you meant, that the Nazis went after leftists first after getting into power.
“Let’s find a middle ground with republicans” - Every out of touch undecided voter.
“Look, Trump wants 100% of the power and to send 100% of the people on the left into camps. Why don’t you compromise by giving him 50% of the power and then he’ll only send 50% of you to camps? … Now he has 50% and wants 100%, you should compromise and give him 75%…”
(And I say this as someone who thinks compromise can be a useful political tool. But only when the group you’re compromising with is bargaining in good faith. The Republicans of today - and certainly MAGAs like Trump - aren’t bargaining in good faith.)
Ok I can agree with the republicans that there’s an existential threat to the country from within, I just think it’s the people marching with swastikas and whose candidates slip in a sonnenrad to campaign videos.
I want communism, sure, but I want to convince my country to embrace the seizure of the means of production, not to force it to.
Pure hitlerism
The threat from outside forces is far less sinister, dangerous, and grave, than the threat from within.
I never thought I’d agree with the Orange Bellend but here we are. I guarantee we’re referring to different people though.
Thats always his thing, he tried to interfere with the election? the prosecution is election interference. He committed fraud in NY? The GA is the fraud… Hes the worst threat of our times against democracy? No the people pointing it out are the actual threat, lmao. And so on its always somewhere in his whinny drivel. Impressive
I’d love for these asshats to be made to define what they mean by a “Communist”, etc.
My very conservative mother (who I no longer speak to) once got mad at Amazon, as in Amazon.com the capitalist empire, and said that they were “the most communist thing ever.” Communists are whoever makes you mad or whoever the alt right media claims they are. Or something like that.
If you follow the sentence structure, it actually reads like he is pledging to root out the assorted groups mentioned… to steal / cheat on elections… and to do anything possible to destroy America. That’s pretty much in line with his past efforts, so I have to wonder if this is intentional Doublespeak.
Ah yes, more dehumanizing language from the person threatening to deploy the military against the people, and to put people he’s dehumanized into massive camps. What could go wrong?
Edit: just a reminder that Hitler’s rose to power by promising to make Germany great again.
Also that the Rwandan genocide was preceded by Hutus by calling the Tutsi minority “vermin” and “cockroaches”
