That’s the Russian way. „I don’t have control, I don’t really know, better not get involved“.
The problem is, I kind of feel the same way. It’s just too much at some point.

Honestly I try not to get caught up in all the drama.
I could care less about what they do since I don’t have any control over it.

Yes, part of the authoritarian playbook is to train the populace to disengage from politics.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me— and there was no one left to speak for me.

The problem is liberals only speak out, in action they don’t do shit to protect the vulnerable, they never hold their own politicians accountable for their inaction.

We aren’t talking about Nazi Germany here. If there is something going down I want to know about it. However, so far it is just been more gossip type stuff than anything.

In a thread with a video of Elon Musk giving a Nazi Seig Heil twice. The same Elon Musk who threw down his support of Germany’s far-right AfD party. The same Elon Musk who threw a live event for them on Twitter.
If you can’t see what’s going on here you have done a miraculous job at keeping yourself ignorant. This is all about Nazi Germany. Except that now it’s Nazi America.

Well America is backing Israel so I don’t see Antisemitic views going anywhere.
Currently a lot of the Anti semitism come from people blaming Jews for what’s happening in Gaza. There have been a lot of attacks on Mosques and even some anti Israel protests in front of them.
In short I don’t think the Trump administration is Nazi. There other words you could use but Nazi is not one of them.

You have a literal video-taped proof that it’s Nazi USA and you talk about gossip?

That’s fair enough
I just find it annoying that some people take a few clips and images and draw wild conclusions. Right now the US is backing Israel so I don’t think we will see Trump attacking Jews any time soon.
