I know there’s Godwin’s Law. And yes, I always tried very hard not to bring up Hitler and not to compare Trump with him.
But as a historically inclined German I would like to point out that I simply cannot help but constantly find parallels between Trump / magaworld and the Nazis.
They keep hating on a small, completely innocent and harmless minority. They threaten their lives. It is truly shocking to me.
To anyone who still says “No, you can’t compare Trump to Hitler”, I say: Look at this list and tell me Trump isn’t a vile, disgusting demagogue.
The only difference to Hitler being (thank fuck!) he’s not hellbent on waging war on the entire world.
IIRC, the person who popularised the term ‘godwins law’, has come out to say comparing Trump to Nazi leadership is not a violation, as it’s comparing apples to apples, not hyperbole or strawman argument.
Edit, Godwin himself said it’s appropriate to compare the two

Hitler didn’t chicken out of serving his country during a war by claiming he had “bone spurs”.
