I grew up watching WW2 movies and the Nazis were never shown as being anything other than Bad Guys. I would love to know how anyone grows up here in the U.S. and doesn’t know that.

Well they ain’t. A Nazi is a specific economic and cultural philosophy/movement of a certain time and place. Anti immigration conservatives, even very racist misogynists aren’t usually nazis no matter how often people call that.

Read a book. Yall call so many things Nazi it’s lost all meaning. No sting left in the term.

I think there are enough similarities for people to properly connect the two.

Yeah it devalues the horror of genocide calling a person critical of mass immigration the same fucking thing.

To see Nazis being presented as the good guys just turn on the DNC stream.

This was taken in Madison Square Garden in 1939.
Henry Ford was given the Grand Cross of The German Eagle by Hitler.
Americans were far more Nazi than history books might have you believe.
Hell, Hitler called America’s genocide of the natives “the first great cleansing”. It was the model.
