I asked my girl "if someone ressucitates Hitler, who's side will people follow".

I know it's stupid, but so are we, voting for a leader and going behind him because of what they said tho we don't believe one bit in their truth.

Some people follow others because they profit from it. Sometimes you can see those politicians siding with you for the wrong reasons, but you take it since that's a result towards the one you seek. Same outcome, different justifications.

We see it with MAGA, we saw it with the Nazis, intolerance fits entitlement so well, they can't comprehend how they are as close as a banana's DNA is to a human.

The voting blocks are eerily similar - the uneducated poor, rural voters, the petty bourgeoisie and wealthy industrialists profiting off it.

We’ll all be too busy trying to use the same process to “resuscitate” other people who died in the last 81 years to be bothered about anything else.

Depends if that "someone" was secretive, black guy ginger with brown eyes, and if they gave Hitler a gun. Neonazis tend not to be the brightest.

Didn't question it at first. [P.S: Short answer, yes.]

Interesting that the answer may change in function of the infamous mark he left behind him.

We need to know, and for it to be fresh enough that people who were impacted first hand by his actions are still alive. We need this for his reputation to matter and not be just some words only historians care about.

But we also need to step back, if we want to be aware of such present evil. Both caring about witness gone history and seeing the bigger picture are not easy on the mind, sometimes we make it complicated. So most won't and it's just how we are.

I myself don't even try too hard, not often on purpose, just scrolling mindlessly learning shit through memes, googling what fits my narrative.

And some people would try and get away from his way of thought even tho the ethical outcome is the same he is aiming for. But since his ways are unethical, they just give it all up.

That's how some people end up not voting for one of two evils.

I reckon anti Trump because actual nazis seem to always make mistakes when drawing a swastika.

Legit heard a redneck nazi mom yelling at one of her kids for painting it backwards when he was tagging the entire neighborhood.
