Leftists suggest re-education camps, firing squads, banning talk radio to deprogram Trump supporters

Possibly, although there are some key differences between the two situations. Germany had previously lived under the Kaiser and had a very nationalistic bent which had persisted for generations. We've never really had anything like that; it's not a part of the American historical experience or our political culture.

After WW1, Germany was humiliated, bankrupt, and in a politically fragile situation. Other new nations and governments were formed throughout Europe, and they were also in a fragile state of affairs (and most of them would also turn into dictatorships). In Germany, they had to haul wheelbarrows full of money in order to buy a single loaf of bread. Things have never gotten that bad in America, even though we've had some bouts with inflation in the past. It never got to that level of severity. I suppose it could get to that point, if the repercussions and impact of COVID continue to persist.

Oh, there are major differences. It is the article comparing to post WWII if you are going to make a comparison, IMO, it is pre WWII. late 20s to early 30s

"kick it over to staff"? Are you one of those people who needs moderators to fight their battles? That would be sad.

However, didn't you say...

You just asserted that people like me who voted for Biden are "brainwashed"! Perhaps I should report you for making a baseless comment about my character and my mental fitness.
I report posts that break rules, yes.

Lol, I wasn't referring to Biden voters, but the people making vicious comments about Trump voters. :rolleyes:

LOL? Really? Don't you remember what you wrote...
@Saint Frankenstein, post: 6908352, member: 36975"]I see some of the usual suspects in this thread trying to downplay this meanwhile they spout similar rhetoric all over this board. Typical. It's out of hand. I don't deserve to have all this disgusting **** said about my character simply because I voted for Trump. They don't know me so they have no business judging me. I don't **** on people for voting for Biden. This is supposed to be America, where we're free to support whoever we please for president. They're just brainwashed by the MSM.
Now you're trying to duck and dodge by saying you weren't referring to Biden voters. Now you're trying to say you were referring to people who made "vicious comments about Trump voters".
If that is now your argument, then you need to show examples of the MSM attempting to brainwash people into making vicious comments about Trump supporters. If you can't, I guess I might have to report you for making even more slanderous comments.


For your edification, I don't need to media to tell me how perverse Donald Trump is. His own words and actions have done that for at least the past four years.

When a "leader" says it's OK to grab women by the *****, I don't need the media to tell me about the character of the people that follow and support him.
When a "leader" tells over 20,000 lies in a four year period, I don't need the media to tell me about the character of the people that follow and support him.
When a "leader" incompetently handles a pandemic, I don't need the media to tell me about the character of the people that follow and support him.

Sorry, but I actually wasn't referring to Biden supporters with that last sentence. You can continue to rage at phantoms all you please. It's not for me to judge what makes you happy. :rolleyes:

You are showing your ignorance of American history. You have Google. Use it. You'll find Vietnam started long before Kennedy.
ah so...Eisenhower is in there too.
So truman, Kennedy and Johnson have no moral culpability.
My notion that Truman helped the French
reoccupy and attempt to recolonize vietnam?

"Phantoms"? Precisely who did the MSM brainwash? Please be clear so that I can determine whether or not you are accusing me of being brainwashed.


It's not for me to judge what makes you happy.

Honesty in discussions goes a long way. But it's not your task to make me happy.

Since you opt to report people for RF violations I just want to make certain who you accused of being brainwashed by the MSM since that might be a reportable offense.

So? That makes you a real telepsychiatrist?
You twice used the term "telepsychiatrist" to refer to me. Why is that?

Is it because of my comments that Trump is a pathological liar? That's proven.

If not, then what?

There are those who suggest the possibility that Kennedy was assassinated because he was planning to pull the U.S. out of Vietnam.

Who knows.
Guy who did it was a commie though.

Anyway, I was just playing what about, Trump -so- terrible. What about democrats and Vietnam?

Of course the deflection "responee" was totally irrelevant.
