We have Nazis and Nazi-lite -> MAGA

We have brown shirts -> ICE.

We are blaming immigrants and believing white people are somehow superior.

Now we just invaded a country, and say we will invade others.

What’s happening here… It feels strange. Is anyone else seeing this?

I think many of those in power (politicians + ultra-wealthy) are trying to purposely mirror the Nazis; using similar rhetoric and actions. They view those tactics as successful to achieving their goals (trying to suck up all the world’s wealth and power).
