No, but because they've been put into camps and denied adequate medical attention and nutrition. Anne Frank died of typhus, remember? Although, I do believe a number of undocumented folks-often second or even third generations- languishing in (private sector) jails have often been arrested at home or work, along with "random" checks. Exploited is convenient claim with little to no evidence-let alone definition, illegally isn't a consideration with refugee claimants.
Yeah, because they were forcibly removed from their own homes, and they're being tattooed with numbers and marched off to gas chambers. - Marso Couldn't be because they were exploited and brought here illegally, could it? I'm sure the kids would understand it if you went down there and explained it to them in person. - garamet why should he? Whichever Democrat wins in 2020 they will explain it when they bust down the cages and free them all!
irony alert? it just strikes me as weird that he's all solemn about an event from 80 years ago, but not one that's comparable to it today.
Comparable? The systematic round-up and internment of citizens based solely on their ethnicity, forcing them to engage in slave labor, and exterminating them via industrial genocide... ...is comparable to... The apprehension of foreign nationals breaking immigration laws, or the detainment of those applying for refugee status until that their cases can be adjudicated through due process?
So there aren't kids in cages? People aren't being forced to drink out of toilets? There's no ethnic targeting taking place when it comes to who gets sent to the camps? People aren't dying in the concentration camps while the government refuses to let doctors in to vaccinate the prisoners for free?
Yes, you aren't literally as bad as the Nazi party. Congratulations, you're a real light in the hill.
Disarmed? How on Earth did you manage to make this about gun control? The Weimar Republic had tight gun laws which Hitler selectively relaxed, so what the fuck?
Neither, in the first instance, were the Jews in Germany. It didn't happen overnight. There was, however, a travel ban, along with proscriptions against religious practises in public. Wanting to prevent history repeating itself means learning the lessons and I'm afraid @Marso has failed to do that. The patterns observed in early Nazi Germany are being seen all over the world, including both in the US and (albeit in a different form) here in the UK. One doesn't say "never again" and simply alter the target from Jews to Muslims or Mexicans.
yes, comparable... as opposed to identical. even with your rose tinted, white washed description and presuppositions of guilt. Last I checked immigration was a matter of civil, not criminal, law? and "due process"? like those preschoolers that are practically having to represent themselves at "hearings" or simply when ICE bursts into workplaces and detains anyone brown and without sufficient documentation on their person? You're killing me here.
They most certainly do in Republican America, while also making sure Nazis are coddled and protected in the name of "free speech."
In the eyes of some, "never again" just means that we literally won't construct a time machine, pull Hitler into the present and force him to direct a reenactment of Nazi Germany.
That National Socialism = Socialism thing is a particular bug bear of mine, in no small part because it highlights the sheer power of spin. The fact that a lie perpetrated all those years ago in order to rebrand the Far Right as palatable to the Left of the time is still misleading people over half a century later, despite it's author being acknowledged as possibly the greatest monster in modern history, is frankly scary. People are still believing Hitler now and basing their worldview onhis use of that one single word. It suggests some very concerning implications for the future impact of the current battles for the hearts and minds of democracy.
They claim they see Hitler comparisons in Trump but not in Xi, and they also claim they're not hysterical or TDS afflicted. Imo it's kind of fitting that Mike Bloomberg, an old white billionaire, has bought himself the Dem party. They've even found a way to make Trump a "winner" in between elections. What an amazingly entertaining time to be alive, if blessed with a sense of humor. Sadly the most deranged of the lot seem to be from outside the US, but it's still ok to laugh.
China is absolutely genociding people. It's way more blatant than the US. That doesn't excuse the US's behavior at all.
Well, one is the guy who just bought the Democrat Party. Another, the Democrat frontrunner in the race for nomination. Then there's "woke NBA." The Marvel stars and the corporate suits, cutting deals perhaps to avoid China's limit on number of western movies permitted in China per year.
Please tell me more about Hawkeye's foreign policy. Is he in favor of the US- Wakanda Free Trade Agreement?
Democracy already won, after all even North Korea is Democratic, it's right there in the name! - Baily thereby proving my theory to steer clear of any country with these things in their name: THE PEOPLES THE FORMER DEMOCRATIC STAN As for names having meanings Russia's official state newspaper for a long time was PRAVDA meaning "truth"
Good job the US declaration doesn't start off by talking about how the people of the American colonies are breaking away from their former government to form a democratic nation.
because the founders were smart enough to envision how awesome/powerful we would soon become, and that naming our new nation THE FORMER DINKY ASS ISLAND COLONIALS wouldn't capture our greatness accurately.
Meanwhile, Der Drumpfenfuhrer's "Wonderful Wall" is being knocked down by high winds. And parts of it have to be raised whenever there are flash floods. Yay, Donnie!
