It shouldn’t but it does still baffle me how Trump is so consistently pulling from the Hitler playbook while still having as many people that do deny it
clarifying
I understand that there’s a subset that support him because of that (even while denying it) but I still think (hope) that the majority of them truly don’t like what Hitler did
I think the majority of supporters “don’t like what Hitler did” in that they understand that liking Hitler is socially intolerable, and not much else. They either literally can’t make the connections because they’re dumber than dogshit, or they’re deliberately misrepresenting themselves to avoid criticism and shame.
I don’t love “dumber than dogshit” to describe a group of people, even Trump supporters. It places blame and denigrates those people while giving a pass to the environment they grew up in that gave them indoctrination instead of real education.
I wrestled with this myself, but no longer. Some of them, a lot of them, are really that dumb. Yes, some were indocrinated and have environmental factors, but they may have inherited the brain cell count as well.
At this point, what will wake them up? They’re fine with the racism and evilness, what will make them take a look at themselves to make them wonder if the person they worship is a conman?
Is like poetry, it rhymes…
„Es gibt immer wiederkehrende Zyklen, Höhen und Tiefen, aber der Verlauf der Ereignisse ist im Wesentlichen der gleiche, mit kleinen Abweichungen. Man hat gesagt, dass sich die Geschichte wiederholt. Das ist vielleicht nicht ganz richtig; sie reimt sich lediglich.“
Theodor Reik
“There are recurring cycles, ups and downs, but the course of events is essentially the same, with minor variations. It has been said that history repeats itself. That may not be entirely true; it merely rhymes.” Theodor Reik
You see, the — the thing about Star Wars is — is that it’s — it’s like poetry, you know — it rhymes. Every stanza kind of — kind of rhymes with the last one.
There’s — there’s no underwear in space. That’s — that’s the rule. We didn’t — we didn’t have bras in space. So — so she had to tape them down. It’s just — you know — it’s a space thing.
Well — you know — the music, uh — it’s not like rock music, or — or electronic stuff. It’s — it’s very classical. Very old-fashioned. Because — because it’s set in space, but — but it’s not futuristic. It’s — it’s more like a — like jazz . That’s what it is — a space jazz. It’s — it’s why the music is what we — well I call it jizz.
