I grew up watching WW2 movies and the Nazis were never shown as being anything other than Bad Guys. I would love to know how anyone grows up here in the U.S. and doesn’t know that.
Well they ain’t. A Nazi is a specific economic and cultural philosophy/movement of a certain time and place. Anti immigration conservatives, even very racist misogynists aren’t usually nazis no matter how often people call that.
Trump supporters aren’t only critical of mass immigration. Go look at the second paragraph of the Nazism Wikipedia page. You’ll find those beliefs overlap quite a few times with American conservatives.
As a Jewish person (I assume you are not with a name like McMurray), no it hasn’t. The people being called Nazis on America’s very fine people right have made no secret of their extreme antisemitism and would have no problem throwing me in a camp.
Huh. Didn’t know Flying Squid was a Jewish name. Anyways the American right is quite literally full of Jewish people on the political level. I’m reminded of Justin Trudeau calling a Conservative member of Parliament a Nazi, not realizing he was talking to a Jewish person.

This was taken in Madison Square Garden in 1939.
Henry Ford was given the Grand Cross of The German Eagle by Hitler.
Americans were far more Nazi than history books might have you believe.
Hell, Hitler called America’s genocide of the natives “the first great cleansing”. It was the model.
To see Nazis being presented as the good guys just turn on the DNC stream.
for starters they dont even know they are Nazis

I think there are enough similarities for people to properly connect the two.
Yeah it devalues the horror of genocide calling a person critical of mass immigration the same fucking thing.

Quit being dense for no reason.
Hitler had ideas that overlap with Buddhism, PETA and myriad other groups, that is completely irrelevant.
lol calm down John, yes they are
Read a book. Yall call so many things Nazi it’s lost all meaning. No sting left in the term.

Yes, Jewish Nazis. That was totally not a thing.
Oh wait- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_German_National_Jews
Do you think maybe you know less about Jews than you think you do?
(Looks at my missing foreskin) No, no I don’t you disingenuous fuck
