People keep comparing what we're seeing now to Nazi Germany. They're not wrong. The resemblance is undeniable.

If the use of force alone was enough, the Nazis never would've come to power. There were plenty of people willing to face them in the streets and match their violence, far more than there are in the US today.
But it's obvious that you just want to exchange snipes and have zero interest in actually learning anything from history, so you will continue to repeat the mistakes of the past. Even when the fascists are at your doorstep, you'll still be punching left, and demanding everyone follow incoherent and dysfunctional ideas because you can't be asses to read theory, study history, or engage with anyone beyond snipes and memes.
