Hitler was elected based on the premise that he would save the German people from destruction, the exact justification you excuse, not simply because he hated Jews.
- beaconstudios 5y agoand making it illegal for parties to call for genocide would've helped his campaign, how? It doesn't necessarily harm his campaign as he could/did just dogwhistle instead, but it certainly wouldn't help it. FWIW Hitler wasn't the example I was thinking of when using that example. He didn't AFAIK explicitly call for genocide but he did dehumanise Jewish people with propaganda.
- defaultprimate 5y agoUh it would have been a good legal basis to seize property from and criminalize the Jews since it was "easy to prove" that's what they were doing. You know... Exactly what actually happened.
