"One of Trump's campaign promises..."
Lol, lmao even.
He wouldn't have promised it if his voters weren't OK with it. Not saying he'll keep his word, but it gives insight to the state of the Republican party. Some people on Lemmy seem to think he's literally Hitler. He's not, even if he turns out to be just as bad. He'll find his own way to fuck shit up, so don't expect an exact repeat of history.
So let me get this straight, when you hear people say Trump is "literally Hitler" you think they're saying he's actually the original real-life Adolf Hitler, somehow still alive, clean shaven, wearing a Trump disguise? Is that what you're saying right now?
You don't think that people actually just mean history is repeating itself, and Trump could turn out to be just as bad? That's not what you think people mean?
Read my comments from the beginning of this thread. I'm saying Trump isn't going to attack the same people Hitler did. And I'm saying he's not going to attack people in the same way Hitler did.
If you're arguing that Trump won't invade Poland, we're in agreement.
But no one is arguing that he's going to round up jews. And he's already demonizing immigrants and political rivals in the same way Hitler did.
It almost seems like you're moving the goal posts, but I'll respond...
I'm not sure what you meant about rounding up jews, but Trump is pro-Israel and pro-zionism.
Trump isn't demonizing immigrants in the same way as Hitler. Hitler didn't rally against undocumented immigrants. And he wasn't trying to deport jews, he was killing them. Are you saying you think Trump will make concentrations camps and start a genocide?
I'm honestly not sure what your position is here, but I'm doing my best to respond to the points I think you're trying to make.
