    These times really make me think. Not everybody was instantly a Nazi back when Hitler came up, there was a progress. So there must have been plenty of people who thought he was a clown with a bit too much influence.

    These new politicians seem like a joke compared to the Nazis, but the Nazis probably seemed like a joke to plenty of people back then, too. Like, this is not a joke what’s going on right now

      Wasn’t Hitler always a kinda incompetent leader?

      If anything that should serve to showcase that you don’t need to be a strong leader to cause massive amounts of damage. Hell, in this day and age you barely need to do shit to cause the end of the world. Just demand the nukes fly. Though hopefully that process would be stopped by people with some self-preservation insinct.

        Nope… this is how it will go down. The decent people disappeared from positions of power.
