No offense, but just because someone fought against Hitler, doesn’t guarantee that they would vote against the Republican Party. My mom’s dad fought in the Army during WW2. He loved to give my older sister lectures about how she shouldn’t date any immigrants that weren’t European, and told her never to date other races. My mom was surprised by his lecture (it happened out of nowhere at a family dinner). She asked, “what about _____ (me)?” He looked at me, and then muttered something about blood types and how it didn’t matter who I dated. I guess he wanted to share with us that he didn’t want my older sister making babies for other races. Most of the countries he named in his list of “don’t date these people” were countries that were not our ally in WW2, so I can understand his concerns about my older sister ever dating their citizens. Good ol’ grandpa! 🤷♀️

If you really want to stop fascism, you have to stop it from taking root. The problem is that people think the root is "random bad guy appears out of nowhere and brings about fascism". To truly prevent fascism from taking root, you need to starve it of supporters. Those supporters start with the obscenely wealthy afraid of losing their wealth who fund fascists who then promise the desperate masses relief from whatever ails them. A huge component of that is inequity, largely driven by economic warfare waged by the obscenely wealthy.
“When and if fascism comes to America it will not be labelled ‘made in Germany’; it will not be marked with a swastika; it will not even be called fascism; it will be called, of course, ‘Americanism‘“ - NY Times (1938)
See the thing is, it's often still marked with a swastika. Why? Because a load of these dipshits couldn't imagination their way out of a wet paper bag.
