re: #30 Nyet

If you think that there is no difference between bug-eyed antisemitism which is alleged here (though not in any way proven) and the no less bug-eyed anti-left-wing-protester claim, well, you’re entitled to this opinion, as we all are.

Well, I’m going to bail out of this particular discussion … you are now deliberately ignoring what has been presented to you (David Duke, Richard Spencer, Jared Taylor, Steve Bannon, &c &c &c).

It is no different than “let’s give Mr. Trump a chance” or “he’s still learning the job.” He’s been at this all his life - it’s not like there is no history of Mr. Trump being convicted for racist rental practices or taking out a full-page advert calling for the execution of the (innocent) Central Park Five.

And now he is the most powerful politician in the world.

But we’re supposed to sit back and wait? Like Pol Pot? Like Stalin? Rwanda perhaps?

From that November 1922 New York Times article:

But, several reliable, well-informed sources confirmed the idea that Hitler’s anti-Semitism was not so genuine or violent as it sounded, and that he was merely using anti-Semitic propaganda as bait to catch messes of followers, and keep them aroused, enthusiastic and in line for the time when his organization is perfected and sufficiently powerful to be employed effectively for political purposes.

A sophisticated politician credited Hitler with peculiar political cleverness for laying emphasis and over emphasis on anti-Semitism, saying: “You can’t expect the masses to understand or appreciate your finer real aims. You must feed the masses with cruder morsels and ideas like anti-Semitism. It would be politically all wrong to tell them the truth about where you really are leading them.”

Yeah, I’m not going to wait for him to implement a plan of genocide - that immigration order was only the first step.
