    I think today’s German liberals and leftists are both worse at stopping fascism than the people who failed the first time

      “We know a thing or two about preventing Nazisim”

      -Germans in response to Trump/current US conservatives in general

      “This ultranationalist, anti immigrant party which was formed in 2013 is now one of the 3 or 4 most powerful political parties in our government and is still growing”

      -Also Germans

          The Germans were taught how to be racist by America. A couple decades later, they were taught how to be anti-racist, by America

          Sorry Germans, America only knows how to do one of those things

      At least the first time around they had some communists who wanted to stop fascists. Now it’s just liberals who passively observe the rise of fascism
