Totalitarian oppression is the same everywhere, and at any time. That's why they want our legally owned guns.

AOC
AOC Thinks Concentrated Wealth Is Incompatible With Democracy. So Did Our Founders.
In a letter to James Madison, Jefferson wrote that the extremity of European inequality was not only morally suspect, but economically inefficient. Aristocrats had grown so wealthy, they were happy to leave their lands uncultivated, even as masses of idle workers were eager to improve it. Thus, these proto-billionaires undermined both the peasants’ ability to transcend mere subsistence, and their society’s capacity to develop economically:

A different take on things for sure.

If this is all you know about Nazi Germany, I suggest you do some serious reading.

Letters, and thoughts are not law. The Constitution is law, yet Libs and some supposed conservatives ignore it all the time.

Wealth = Private Property. If that is illegal then so is owning your home, car, bank account, your kids college fund, and 401K. Do you want a limit on those? Then if so, how much is OK?

I hope you do, because it seems to me that there are far more parallels to the current GOP white house than there are to the left.

Using religious and racial hatred to gain high office? Trump didn`t invent that.

I watched it in its entirety, and the only thing I learned is that this is a woman with an agenda, using historical facts to promote a lie.

Here's a pretty good take on it:

Conservative spin? That Hitler used Europe's economic state to gain his big initial footholds of power? That's not spin it's fact. He gave the people tangible results that allowed him to steer things the way he wanted them to go. Into totalitarianism. If the people wanted more which they did he had to be given more power. This is a tactic that the Democrats are and have been using. Give them more power and they can "get things done." They will give back to the people exponentially what they are given.


Another poster suggested if this is what one knows about the Nazi rise to power that more reading needs o be done but really it's not much more complicated. Sounds like leftist spin to me there. Telling us we need a rocket scientist to explain to us why s***flows downhill.
