We'd do well to listen to the people who were persecuted by the actual, original Nazis. But these tinpot fascists of today don't care.

All the way back in 2016, there were holocaust survivors who were giving some pretty chilling interviews, saying Trump's rhetoric reminded them of how Hitler spoke and how he did things.

Yep, my oldfather-in-law lived through Nazi Germany as a German. He said it was horrible, and the SS/Gestapo ordered them to move from their house to where the adminstration wanted them to live. They were loaded on trains enmasse, and separated from their parents. No food, no water, and hot low air flow from cramped trains. When they finally arrived at the destination his sibling was dead from lack of water/help. It won't be just the Mexicans trump abuses. It will eventually be every citizen.

You’re assuming these fascists believe and accept the holocaust was real. I’m sure many don’t, so this old guy’s historical testimony and comments are irrelevant to them.

Sad that this brave mans words and the crowd won't sway these fascist. Hell they probably took it as a compliment.

It's not for them. It's for the rest of the crowd. The next time one of them thinks, "Well maybe I should turn this terrified child over to the ICE officers who showed up at my workplace asking about them," they'll remember all those wild cheers at the end, and the man shaking his withered finger and speaking. It's like water cutting a pathway through the rocks.
