Studying about the rise of Hitler, one of the things that stands out is that he signaled everything he was going to do long before he did it. But people didn’t believe him. They thought it was just crazy, he must be joking, that that could never happen in such a strong democracy.

I argue that at some point you'll come to this conclusion: as perfectly-predictable circumstances revealed Neoliberal capitalism to be an unsustainable socioeconomic system (late stage capitalism), the ruling class "had no option" but to turn to fascism. lareviewofbooks.org/article/…

Comparing Trump to Hitler is peak TDS. It’s an insult to the millions who died at Hitlers hands. You should delete this embarrassing tweet.

And also Hitler used his crowd’s own ego to bring absolutism to his support. Trump has done that well, and his followers can never admit that they’ve been PLAYED no matter what truths appear before them.

This is just dumb. Stop the false accusations and hate-mongering.

Hadn’t seen it this clear👇 youtube.com/jFICRFKtAc4 “In 1929 The Great Depression and the strong German economy collapsed overnight. Hitler took advantage of the people’s anger, offering them convenient scapegoats, and a promise to restore Germany to its former Greatness” 1/7

If only there were another party that was a viable option. One that did not allow Party Bosses to dismiss the will of those they claim to represent. If only there was another option that was not dirty, conniving, dirtbags willing to drag anyone through the dirt for more power.

History has so many lessons to teach us, yet, sadly, humanity seems doomed to repeat the same mistakes. Will we ever learn? 😥💔

Carl Jung had a different interpretation of Hitler’s messaging: “His voice is nothing other than his own unconscious, into which the German people have projected their own selves; that is, the unconscious of seventy-eight million Germans. “
