Political Incitement: Democrats Are Reviving Nazi-Era Tactics

The Weimar Republic, a fractured, democratic nation beset by internal strife, serves as one such lesson. The tactics used by its political radicals—particularly those of the Nazi Party—did not begin with violence but with rhetoric.  @amuse
The past is never truly past. 
History offers not just instruction but stark warnings for those willing to heed them. 
The Weimar Republic, a fractured, democratic nation beset by internal strife, serves as one such lesson. The tactics used by its political radicals—particularly those of the Nazi Party—did not begin with violence but with rhetoric.

  • Words that painted entire groups as threats to society itself. 
  • Words that, in their incessant repetition, made violence seem not just possible but necessary.
A strikingly similar pattern is emerging in the contemporary United States...
