At least we don't have a neo-nazi running for president. 😂

Its called hyperbole my friend, lets not pretend they have nothing in common. 🙂

Calling Trump a Nazi is about as legitimate as calling Bernie a Soviet.

"It's hyperbole so it's ok & justifiable."

Nah, not really.

Spoiler:
Hitler was a way better politician than Trump, for starters.

Because the Soviets were so liberal and left-wing. 😬

Calling Trump a Nazi adequately encapsulates most of his less savoury qualities. 🙂

It's a funny debate tactic. Calling anyone they don't like "hitler". It HAS withstood the test of time..

Yeah as much of a prick as Trump is, calling him a nazi is kinda ridiculous tbh

Yes lol, this has nothing to do with his extreme brand of nationalism, his nostalgic appeal to non-existent past state of greatness, his polarising white supremacist rhetoric, his use of thug tactics against his contractors or his appeal to emotions and over-the-top showmanship to stir up a crowd. I'm just comparing him to the Nazis cause I don't like him. 😬

You also must be watching too much MSNBC and therefore apparently understand 1% of actual reality. And the appeal to emotion is very ironic, since that's exactly the rhetoric the democrats use against him.

Because Hitler was so conservative and right-wing. 😐

"We are socialists, we are enemies of today’s capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with it’s unfair salaries, with it’s unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are determined to destroy this system under all conditions."

-Adolf Hitler

I don't think beni knows history very well.

@NewGuy, fascism and socialism are not the same thing. 😬

Sure.. And the same holocaust survivors are saying the same thing about Hilary. So which is it?

Not sure who wrote that or how much of that is even accurate (I only read two paragraphs and saw some red flags). This is a subject best suited for Nai.

Perhaps this would be a better source (apparently written by a dude from CSU?): http://www.csun.edu/~vcmth00m/NazismSocialism.html

Fascism and conservatism aren't the same thing either. Closer would be populism, or authoritarianism.

Yeah not really seeing how Nazism and Socialism are similar at all, I was off the belief it was typically seem as far right. mmm

I never said they were, if you think I'm comparing Trump to the Nazis because he's conservative I'm not.
