The Biden campaign fiercely denounced Donald Trump following his caustic remarks aimed at immigrants Saturday, saying the former president “parroted Hitler.”
“Tonight Donald Trump channeled his role models as he parroted Adolf Hitler, praised Kim Jong Un, and quoted Vladimir Putin while running for president on a promise to rule as a dictator and threaten American democracy,” Biden-Harris 2024 spokesperson Ammar Moussa said in a statement.
Trump on Saturday ratcheted up his already inflammatory rhetoric on immigrants at a rally in New Hampshire. “They’re poisoning the blood of our country,” the former president said. “They’ve poisoned mental institutions and prisons all over the world. Not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world they’re coming into our country from Africa, from Asia.”
You’re getting downvoted, but I’m not picking up the “just asking questions” vibe.
In context that quote is about race mixing. I had never read the book until I searched for that quote, and the author is, essentially, claiming human achievement is the result of a few hyper capable people, and everyone else is simply benefiting from their ideas.
Leading up to that quote the author is saying “species” (and I’m assuming in earlier chapters the claim is made that humans are not a single species) shouldn’t interbread because one is always better than the other, and therefore the offspring won’t be as “good” as the better parent.
So in context this is essentially saying the death of every culture happened because less “quality” humans started breading with the “quality” humans.
Which is hilarious, because after reading a handful of pages from this book I can only assume Hitler is the dumbest mother fucker whose ever existed.
Yes I was asking because there is this supposed connection between Hitlers’ ideas and Occultism, especially Blavatsky’s ideas. Theosophy has this concept of root races, basically superior humans from lost civilizations (like Atlantis), so when I saw the quote I thought it could be interpreted both ways, the normal racist way, that white people are superior, yada yada, or the occultist racist way that these lost races that had basically superpowers were losing them because of mixing with “normal” inferior humans.
I only know the basics of both of these authors, so I asked because maybe there would be someone more versed in the subject. But apparently just the mere thought of exploring the historical figure of Hitler makes you a nazi.
Dumb people say dumb things. My guess is there are a lot less dumb people now than there ever has been. But dumb people will always exist.
I’ve never read any of those authors. Sociology has never really interested me, but good for you for learning history and studying what interests you.
Like, if you’re looking to engender yourself to someone common hatred is surprisingly effective. People inherently trust others who agree with them, and shouting loudly you hate Nazis is a cheap and easy way to gain points to the crowd they’re trying to gain favor with.
My take is if you’re so unconfident in your ability to discuss you resort to shouting you hate Nazis, you’re probably a moron. It’s like saying “I disagree with anyone who even SUGGESTS drinking rat poison.”
Like yeah, no shit.
