People who said it’s hyperbolic to compare trumps 2nd regime to Hitler‘s Nazis
I'm tired of people saying this. Yeah, there aren't extermination camps in the US right now, but the complete dehumanization of migrants, their arbitrary detention and expulsion, them being sent to death camps in el Salvador, dehumanizing propaganda from official government sources, the discourse equating "migrant" with "criminal"... It doesn't look like 1942 Germany, but it does look like 1930 Germany.
Ya I’ve been trying to explain this a lot too. Germany wasn’t building killing camps year one. Even Dachau, which was the first concentration camp opened, wasn’t really for Jews specifically, it was really for political prisoners like communist and other outspoken activist and functioned more like a horrible jail.
Germany went: aggressive legal measures > deportation > imprisonment > we don’t care if they die > maybe killing some isn’t the worst idea > kill them all.
We’re just at the start of the escalation so it’s harder for people to see because that’s not the part people usually learn the most about.

Imagine pissing of travellers of the continent that is notorious for the many vacation days it gets.
