- constantcrying 3y agoWhat kind of nonsense response is that? Why do you think I am literally hitler because I use the most normal words imaginable and repeat what migrants will tell you about their experience. Maybe there is a large cultural gap here, but I grew up in a "worse" part of town with lots of migrants around. Maybe you should try to do the same before calling everyone a nazi because they dare to point out what these people say they want?
- laserdancepony 3y agoAnd here someone won the Godwin award again. That was fast. Fascinating how your adversary is having a well mannered argument and you derail it to call him a nazi. Takes one to know one, I think.
- tfourb 3y agoI said his use of language is reminiscent of the way language was used in the 1930s, I didn't call him a Nazi. For what it's worth, the Nazis certainly don't have a monopoly of using language in this kind of way (creating an "us" vs. "them" narrative), it is quite common with populists all throughout history and certainly not confined exclusively to one particular political spectrum. But every time someone tries to stylize two very complex groups into two simple opposing forces, it should really ring alarm bells.
