Which political party actually acts like Nazis? Trump Jr says it's the Democrats.

The claim of similarity between the Democratic & 1930s Nazi platforms is an old one.
I recall first seeing it several decades ago....long before Trump became newsworthy.

Yeah, come to think of it, you're right.

Yea, it is written in the Book of Cyril...
Well you do have Antifa for starters, pretty much a group of people who like to consider themselves the "muscle" and pushing leftist views through attempts at intimidation and the like. I'm pretty sure all of them are Democrats. Anyways it seems like a grass-roots version of the brown shirts early on as Nazism started to ramp up.

More and alarmingly you have actual politicians like Maxine Waters version of mob politics as it applies to the left arm of the Democrats.

And of course our social justice warriors of the left with the poster people from Evergreen College walking around campus carrying baseball bats.
I'll see your nonsense strawman examples and raise you the militia movement, the alt right, and the entire NRA, if we're citing boogeymen.

If you're interested in a fact based comparison of specific real world like vs. like examples, please do let me know.

They tend to be anarchists or other fringe left ideologies. Such folk often see centrist partied like the Dems as contemptible.

Anti-fascist action groups were literally created to fight against brownshirts and other fascist militants. The clue is in the name.

Regardless of this, it is remarkably vapid to make facile Nazi analogies whether it's about Dems or Pubs. That people are so deluded by partisan bias that they can't see how inane they are is quite funny really. Obama was the antichrist, now everybody is Hitler, there are certainly some "interesting" people out there... :D

You know it's really difficult to find any real world statistics on Democrat and Republican violence. Google search engines are not very friendly toward conservatives and Republicans who wants supporting information. Golly gee. Big surprise there.

Anyways ..

Closest I could come with is an NPR article as it address leftist trends toward violence.

Evergreen College is mentioned too as well. Like that was a big surprise for me.

FACT CHECK: Is Left-Wing Violence Rising?

Just watch and see, time will tell the left will become far more violent in the future if it doesn't get its way.

Yeah sure, google is the reason the argument is with little substance. This is the problem with the 'fake news' movement. It takes the responsibility of adequate research out of the hands of people who hold unsubstantiated opinions. After all, the media is Anti American liars who can't be trusted. (Who does that sound like?)

Incidentally, https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-trump-incitement-violence/ and I can find dozens of articles about increasing alt right violence (I was even an hour shy of witnessing as alt right fatal stabbing of two men defending two Muslim women), alt right terrorists and evangelical right violence against LGBT.

Naziism... forceful resistance to Naziism... they're so similar, how can we tell them apart?

Give me a break.

He's made some good points. It's no secret that Democrats have called for violence and in some cases had gotten violent already over political philosophy.

Trump Jr.: Democratic Party platform similar to Nazis' - CNNPolitics

Let the carnage of debate commence!


Democrats? Calling for violence? Seriously? Will you share what you're smoking? :)

We had 5 weeks of demonstrating against ICE next door, and IF I were a Democrat, I would not claim them. Its been silently creeping up on us but America is birthing new political parties, how many, I don't know. The parties used to sit down and talk things out. That's called Bipartisanship. The people in our very entitled pseudo nation want to just drink a bunch of beer, smoke some weed and then shout at each other now. This is so sad.

Aside from the obvious racism, the nazis were staunch social conservatives and jingoists, had contempt for democracy, and were vehemently anti communist and anti LGBT (they got sent to death camps as well). Doesn't sound like democrats at all to me, so for them to actually attempt to draw such an asinine parallel reeks of desperation.

But the sad fact of the matter is that witless yokels eat it up without question.

Because you can't find the facts, data, and statistics to back something up, you would rather presume that there is some sort of preposterous, convoluted conspiracy to suppress information rather than consider that perhaps it's simply unsubstantiated and inaccurate? You're so blindly dedicated to a delusion that you would sacrifice your own integrity and honor to sustain it, and that's pitiful.
