I've been working through a few biographies of the top brass of Nazidom, and even with the rather perfunctory understanding I've gained from these books of Hitler's seizure of power and all that followed in Nazi Germany, my ears are pricking up in horror every day as I listen to the latest news from around the world. And I'm not even going so far as the Holocaust. If the Holocaust and WWII never happened, the Nazi regime would still have been an unmitigated nightmare.
The language certain politicians are using is plucked directly from the mouths of Goebbels' and Himmler's rotting corpses. How can they not see what lies ahead if they continue with this shit? We know how this story ends. We have examples of it from recent memory, we don't even need to cast our minds back to the 1930s ๐คทโ
I am not familiar with this, would you share what country you are talking about?
Germany for example. The AfD is gaining more and more support by using phrases like "This development that is happening right now, creation of mixed populations to destroy the national identity and thus give our autonomy to the EU - that is simply not bearable!", "Such humans we should of course dispose of", "When a [n-word] in my neighborhood coughs at me, I have to know if he is sick or is he not sick." or "The reason why we are being flooded with culturally foreign people like Arabs, Sinti and Roma is the systematic destruction of civil society." https://www.volksverpetzer.de/analyse/10-rechtsextreme-zitate-der-afd/
To be fair, they curently decide to see the AFD as an extremist organization.
