Psst. So was the first instance.
That's what nazis always were and what they always will be.

A concatenation of events.
1. Social Media Platforms & Gaming that addict people to lives of loneliness

Zuckerberg, Brin, Page, Dorsey, Cook etc and their fossil fuel investors Alwaleed bin Talal created AI-enabled media platforms to interfere in elections & profit themselves, & that resulted ...

...in a jump in suicides, declining health outcomes, & isolation.
The gaming industry so beloved by GOP billionaires like Miriam Adelson, Bigelow, Petterffy, Steve Wynn, & Perlmutter also creates incels by the boatload.
2. A rapidly growing political gender divide.

Increasingly backwards-looking conservative young men versus increasingly pluralistic liberal modern young women.

Regressive billionaires ...
3/4
Regressive billionaires like Elon Musk, Larry Ellison, and Peter Thiel plus the six dynasties funding Project 2025, managed to grow a 30 pt political divide in only 6 years between the genders.
Women avoid men who believe in an ideology fostering cruelty & civil rights erosions.
Bradley, Koch, Coors, Scaife, Seid, & Uihlein funded a fascist movement to get climate denial & tax evasion, and achieved a plummeting birth rate as a side effect.

3. Economics & demographics -- Goodhart & Pradhan "The Great Demographic Reversal"
There are different causes in different countries but social media usage rates & the rising cost of living from 1% greed plays a role.
Reducing immigration dooms the G7 to uncertain futures.
What I see are downtowns entirely devoid of children.
Malls with very few teens.
Public parks with not one child on the playground.
Consolidation of kid's sports facilities because there aren't enough players signing up.
What makes you think that the leaders of the Third Reich _weren't_ psychotic crackheads?
The Nazis were loons of the highest order. Unfortunately, this did not make them any less dangerous.
