Quote from article: Once the Nazis took power they banned books, outlawed drag shows and homosexuality, changed school curricula to remove mention of their atrocities in WWI, and rewrote election laws so they’d never again lose an election.

My thoughts: A whole bunch of people, myself included, started pointing out parallels between the Trump-era GOP and the Nazis well before he was elected. We were accused of employing hyperbole, and told to "give him a chance."

Well, just call me Cassandra ... because here we are.

Just. Like. I. Said. We. Would. Be.

What’s Behind the GOP’s War Against Democracy?

And are rightwing billionaires who want more, more, more money willing to make common cause with bigots, fascists, and wannabee killers to get it?

@sharonecathcart on this long road to Fascism there has been a constant whine of "don't upset the fascists, and don't call them 'Fascists', you'll hurt their feelings" and I want to see what those people think now or are they still lying to us and themselves?

"They aren't Fascists because they weren't grown in the Fascisti region of Italy"" .....

Yeah, no, they're Fascists.

Fascism has nothing to do with time & place, it is a basic human pathology that has always existed, under different names.
