bullshite. The two examples are not anywhere close to the same. An all powerful dictator and brownshirt enforcers are the opposite of American right wing philosophy. Your example is much more comparable to left wing idealism.

You missed my point.

Hitler's government didn't start off as a totalitarian dictatorship. It started out much more conservative in response to the stagnant government remnants left by WWI. It evolved into what became the Nazi Party and SS.

I'm not comparing anything about post 1939 WWII Germany to modern American conservatism, nor would I.

I'm simply saying that a swing in one direction can morph into a landslide in a perpendicular direction. Remember 1990s-2000s LGBTQP crap, "We just want equal treatment. We don't want to force our lifestyle onto your kids or TVs. You don't have to bake us cakes. We just want to be able to marry our same sex partner, not have drag queens read stories to your pre-K kids."
