I just don't understand why fascism is rising all over the world like this. It's looking like WWIII will have multiple Hitlers, one in Washington, one in Brasilia, and one in Manila at a minimum.

no just no

Yes Trump is bad but comparing him to Hitler, Mussolini or any fascist leader is absolutely false. Yes Trump's rhetoric is horrible and he is a terrible person but he is not a dictator. Actions wise the Patriot Act was far more authoritarian than anything Trump has done


I dont know much about the other two but even then the comparison seems outlandish

Trump is a fascist, and used all the same tactics to rise to power as Hitler did. He wants absolute dictatorial power and as long as Republicans have control of Congress, that's what you get. Fascism is extreme nationalism (Trump literally just called himself a nationalist) combined with a scapegoat (In Nazi Germany, Jews. In 2018 America, Muslims, Mexicans, and immigrants.)

Adolf Hitler filled concentration camps with Jews, Danes, Gypsies, and gays. Donald Trump filled concentration camps with little children legally kidnapped from their mothers. Rodrigo Duterte is having innocent people extra-judiciously killed and now Brazil has a president promising an ethnic cleansing and the imprisonment of his political opponents.

One of these guys is going to start a world war, potentially even a nuclear war.
