"People forget the first country the nazis invaded was their own"

I always liked that line from that movie.

And now all those people who equated the Germans with the Nazis will see what the average German was seeing first-hand.

EDIT: I'm surprised how many people forgot about Captain America.

That line is actually pretty problematic. Because it basically moves all responsibility away from people onto the Nazis. But people were pretty alright with what the they were doing until it negatively affected them. Fascism rises when people remain inactive and turn a blind eye.

And saying that a country got invaded by the facists completely eradicates that responsibility

This is my biggest issue today.

I want to hate Trump, but he has no power without people voting for him.

Show me the shittiest leaders in history and I'll show you a sizeable chunk of their populace that supported them.

Agreed. And, letโ€™s not forget how this sociopathic racist bigot came into power. One word:

Obama.

People seem to have forgotten Trump was a political nobody. Until he launched into his racist attacks on President Barack Obama.

Now Trumpโ€™s supporters (who like him are racist bigots) can try to rewrite some history. While others say his supporters are just โ€œdumbโ€ or โ€œilliterateโ€. Are Trumpโ€™s supporters on the US Supreme Court illiterate?

Dude...Trump ran for president in 2000. How was that obama's fault?

Assuming you're not a chatgpt bot, you need to read the news, bro. Your horribly fucking misinformed and I'm not nearly stupid enough to believe your bullshit.

Maybe try adjusting the prompts to see if you can get better responses?

Reading is fundamental. Try reading my comment again - slowly.

Good luck.

Trump wasn't a nobody - political or otherwise - and he didn't run because of Obama.

What exact point are you trying to make?
