re: #44 Kreniigh

Not to go all Godwin or anything, but are there any good sources on people in pre-Nazi Germany who might have been watching the growing Crazy with the same mixture of astonishment, amusement, and creeping dread?

It’s nice to think that we’re too smart or too modern for something like this to spin out of control as badly — surely it will collapse under its own stupidity — but haven’t people been wrong about that in the past?

Why… are you claiming the right wing is like the up and coming government that was lurking in Germany in the early 1930’s?
