It's all under the guise of nationalism, that's another factor.
Its tribalism which is a Democratic Party mandate. That everyone is defined by their race, rather than as an individual. That is the dehumanizing part.

Hitler didn’t start with gassing. He started with brawls in the streets. Granted, the Proud Boys aren’t gonna brawl with the people they REALLY hate (and I’m not talking about Antifa either), but they’re running around with poked out chests regardless.

That said, I agree with you that they aren’t scary and their menace doesn’t quite measure up to the Sturmabteilung...yet.

Also, in the interest of the Godwin invocations that usually disturb me greatly, I’ll agree that it’s something of an absurdity to begin asserting Third Reich comparisons...for now.

But to see a sitting United States President talking about some fringe group as if he’s their leader or inspiration is very effin weird. It has no relatively recent precedent that i know of. I mean, who are these guys? His foot soldiers?

So you being so dismissive is awfully strange. This kinda relationship between a president and a group of boychik ruffians is very evocative of...well, you figure it out.

Liberals don’t care about facts.

They ignore the fact Trump’s son-in-law is JEWISH and his daughter converted to JUDAISM. Oh and that Trump is married to an Eastern European immigrant.

Not exactly the resume of an Adolf Hitler.

Here is a video, published today, of the Chief of the Proud Boys, Salt Lake Chapter, condemning white supremacy on video:



What kind of white supremacist organization has numerous black leaders around the country, including its top leader, and makes public proclamations denouncing white supremacy, while not advocating for it specifically anywhere.

Who is bailing out the rioters intimidating and burning? VP candidate Harris.

Ridiculous, isn't it? Trump is anti-American? Is that why he is trying to deter more illegals from getting into our country to rob Americans of their jobs, taxes and resources? He doesn't pay US taxes? He pays taxes according to the tax code. Has he ever been accused by the IRS of cheating on his taxes? He censors the information we need on (COVID)? He didn't censor anything. The left just refuses to look at the actual time line of the virus, the advice he was given at the time, etc. He wants 20 million US citizens to go without healthcare? Where the hell is the poster coming up with that nonsense? Obamacare is a disaster and he will replace it with something better for all. Of course the Democrats want to include illegal aliens in their healthcare program. Just how anti-American is that?

"Western Culture" is just a front for white supremacy. It's just a dog whistle. And refer to the first reply of the thread. Explain that.

Yes, but "dog whistle" is black supremist code for "I hate whitey!"

Each time you write "dog whistle" you really mean "I hate whitey!" and all your fellow black supremacist white haters know exactly what you mean by "dog whistle."

Trump is the worst white supremacist in the history of white supremacists. Gets blacks out of jail, supports Israel, appoints a black man as surgeon general, wins the Ellis Island Award.
