Childlike Empress's US/Nazi comparison thread

[Elizabeth I]

Tadaaa! Still here!

I despise any comparison between anyone and Hitler. I think it's a lame way to make a political point.

Not to mention that it completely trivializes Hitler, the Nazis, and the results of their assuming power. Unless millions of people are being systematically executed, any comparison is pretty much irrelevant.

However, I'm glad you haven't been dragged off. Congratulations on still being here.

Childlike is missing... And she even didn´t had the chance to reply.

 

[Childlike Empress]

Thanks for the hint, Oliver.

"No coke for you," sayeth the Coke Nazi!

Hitler was on speed, Bush preferes booze....

Grow up, Pardalis.

 

[Darth Rotor]

Thanks for the hint, Oliver.

Nope. He apparently preferred booze. He's been dry since his wife cleaned up his act, IIRC late 1980's. I'd have to check back to some old campaign soundbytes from 2000. Memory fuzzy.

For my money, that is a strike against him. I personally don't think a teatotalling President is a good leader for America.

Okay, beside the polnish and the iraq invasion we also
have the Göbbels-like brainwash-propaganda from the
government:

 

[Pardalis]

Grow up, Pardalis.

Wow, your argumentation is powerful.

This thread is for your personnal use, whenever you feel like it, you can post your Nazi gibberish here.

 

[Childlike Empress]

Great, Pardalis. Wow, i SO have to post some video links now. Here are three. They say nothing about Bush beeing a reincarnation of Hitler like you seem to think i see it but a lot about the continuity of ideology (and some false flag terror). Enjoy.

[Pardalis]

I started this thread for your sake, Childlike, I never said I would read it.

 

[Childlike Empress]

You already admitted that you fear to look into the details of what connecting the dots could lead you to.

Sad, but honest. Now stop wasting bandwidth.

I created bandwidth for your sake, that's a nice gesture no?

Both USA and Nazi Germany have/had:

Internment camps not subject to the Geneva Convention.

Invaded independent sovereign nations without cause.

Troops commit atrocities in occupied countries.

Hate France.

Used weapons of mass destruction.

Christian leadership determined to overcome another faith's followers.

No respect for international opinion.

Taken on a "war" on two fronts.

An anti-gay leader.

Up until well after WWII, discrimination against coloureds.

Supported smaller, pro-self regimes both materially and financially.

Refused to allow international courts to deal with war crimes.

I'm sure there are more, but there's a dozen to kick it off.

Are you going somewhere with this? I am unsure what you mean by

Could you elaborate?

[The Atheist]

The OP stated:

OK, anyone who wishes to make comparisons between the current or past US administrations with Hitler's Germany can do it right here.

I managed to come up with a dozen off the top of my head, so posted them.

Could you elaborate?

DR

Yeah, sorry, there's a "with" in there which shouldn't be - I'll edit it out next.

In fact, I can elaborate it even further now I give it some thought to:

Both Nazi Germany and USA supported dictators whose countries were later attacked - Italy and Iraq, respectively.

 

[Ziggurat]

Refused to allow international courts to deal with war crimes.

I'm afraid that claim is simply false. We allow it to happen all the time, and have in fact been instrumental in helping catch a number of suspects for such courts. What we have not agreed to is letting such courts have jurisdiction over American citizens, but that is different than your claim as stated. There are a number of reasons for that refusal, but one of them is simply that it is not constitutionally permissible for our government to do so.

I see. So, is English support for the King of Siam, a despot, who was attacked by Japan, a scene in the same play?

Fine by me, change that to:

Not letting such courts have jurisdiction over American citizens.

Which is the intent of the original comment.

No, since the OP asked for comparisons of Nazi Germany and USA, so England, Siam/Thailand and Japan don't fit.

 

[The Atheist]

Couple more:

USA and Nazi Germany both:

Hate communism.

Fought wars against communists.

Are/were overwhelmingly christian.

Partook in arms races.

Instituted development programs for WMD.

Have/had the death penalty.

18 so far, more to come...

Have populations where men drink beer.

Typical enjoyment of the sight of women with large breasts.

Lots of meat eaters.

Trains, some of which ran on time.

Built airplanes and tanks.

Built long range submarines to patrol and interdict their enemy's sea lines of communication. (U boat versus englisn, US versus Japan.)

How many more pointless similarities between two 20th century industrial societies can we make to help you continue in your game?

The "Both hated commies" is one of your better sallies, contextually.

Hey, I didn't start the game, but I am trying to keep to military and christian similarities.

You can hardly compare German and American beers, though. Both are called "beer", but American beer is like watered down German beer. And watered down with something recycled which isn't water.
