The comments are.. just holy shit.
The comments section is literally poking fun at the fact that the video is actually just retarded. Social commentary in ironic shitposting, what a time to be alive.
But no, really, Hitler and the Nazis were far from the first or the last people to talk about nationalism in such a way and comparing Trump to Hitler trivializes the millions that were killed.
Building a wall that does nothing and death camps aren't really similar at all, I'm afraid.

Yeah, honestly I think the video had the opposite effect of what it was originally supposed to do.

Previously on-the-fence Nazis were swayed to support Trump.
Looks like "Citizen Super PAC" is some #NeverTrump thing. They have other pro-conservative projects being funded:

All it does is make me wish I were American so I could vote for Trump :v:

Hitler never mentioned death camps
Didn't Hitler bring about the economic miracle of Germany through, like,
socialist policies?
Sorta kinda in the opposite direction of Trump's tax plan and foreign policy.

Are you implying that because Trump hasn't mentioned death camps, he is going to build death camps?

hes going to build death walls
I'm thinking this is gonna backfire really bad.

Do you [i]honestly[/i] think that Trump will start death camps in the US? Really? [i]Really[/i]? Do you even think the president has the ability to do that on his own anyway? Jesus Christ the point went so far over your head it colonized Mars.
The point is that when you compare someone to Hitler, you're not doing it because their political speeches are similar, you're relying on the evocative image of the millions he killed to push your own opinion forward. And that's a god damn disgrace.
When did we ever forget Godwin's Law?

right about when godwin's law has literally nothing to fucking do with the validity of an argument, but is merely a predictor of online discussions

when will people stop using godwin's law like it's some sort of fallacy, when it was never intended to be that, and isn't that

Germany was already having its economy rebuild itself without the Nazis, Hitler made a point to appear at factories opening and road openings for propoganda when majority of them had nothing to do with the Nazi party or their economic policies, Hitler just got himself photographed next to the ribbon cutting to present an image of helping rebuild.
Also the Nazis [I]heavily[/I] funded their war machine by seizure of property from Jews, Gypsies and other "subhumans" living in Germany (one estimate I read was that up to 27% of their economy by 1944 was funded by simply "government seizure" i.e. stealing).
So yeah, I guess you can say Hitler brought some economic prosperity with the latter part there, but just look at the cost.
Also, lol for a Nazi economic miracle from "social policies"
Man a video that is Godwin's Law. As soon as you bring this comparison it creates instant push back.
Das Juden have had free reign for too long! Heil Trump, glory to the fourth reich!

Well, the Golden age/economic miracle of the 30s IIRC was a result of borrowing hundreds of millions of dollars to repair the infrastructure (which Bernie has laid out a plan for, and Trump hasn't said anything about other than "I can fix our horrible infrastructure") via the Reinheart or something plan.
Heavily taxing corporations and speculative banking (which I don't recall Trump saying anything about, while Bernie's plan contains this big time)
Big tariffs on imported goods (like what you guys need to do with China)
Workers unions working together with job-givers deciding wages (which you guys also need)
etc etc
Trump's tax plan sucks anyway, and would "Increase national debt by 80% of GDP by 2036"
Make America even shitter again.
This looks like a trailer for Trump vs Hitler.

Most of Hitler's "economic building" of Germany came through the Third Reich's massive military spending and some public works projects such as the Autoahn. The Nazis had a leftist faction that were socialist, but Hitler opposed them and they were killed on the Night of Long Knives. Nazis didn't fulfill many of their promises of socialism. Germany did this all at a massive deficit government. To expand on this a little, most of the "socialism" you hear was state interventionism in the economy and government control of some industries (But not total control over the economy) There wasn't any Worker's Rights Laws in place (In fact they abolished unions and made it illegal to strike, replacing labor unions with a government workers coalition)
ban me if Trump starts death camps in the US, toxx

How does it trivialize the millions that were killed?
The obvious comparison is their campaign methods, not "he's gonna genocide".

u can come live with me in Cape Breton Glitchman.
Our whole community is making the offer anyway
I have no idea what is going to happen, but im somehow morbidly excited what shitshow can Trump perform if he wins. I do not wish he wins but if he does...
There's no way to know that any candidate [I]will[/I] be Hitler because Hitler specifically became Chancellor [I]because[/I] nobody knew what was going to happen. Trump could do everything he says he wants to do. He could do even more (for good or bad). Or he could struggle to do anything because he can't get anything past Congress. Save the dictator comparisons for if he gets elected and starts stifling the press and actively treating certain groups as second-class citizens (the ban on Muslims which he is suggesting certainly could become that). The Hitler comparisons are certainly there, but they're there with pretty much every politician known to man because Hitler was a populist who aimed to get elected by any means necessary.

Can't wait for that Pay-per-view match
All proceeds go to the wall if you're in Mexico, too
Is it not obvious that he's much more interested in running a show than governing?
(Meanwhile Bernie does the opposite and gets called "weak")
I kind of want to vote Trump just to see that white privilege put to use for once.
But the humanity in myself holds me back.
Trump is going to be the first president to ever be elected ironically.
