To be fair, they were also starving due to hyperinflation. Hitler’s evil positions weren’t exactly front and center in his rise to power. His main attraction was that he promised to break the stranglehold that the UK, France, and US had in the German economy following WWI. Which he did and the German economy skyrocketed.
I understand that part, but when he started putting the blame on various ethnic groups, the German people went along with it. No reason or logic. I assume the ones that did utilize reason and logic, did not speak up due to the fear that the authoritarian government would silence them. Fast-forward to today. Cops are handcuffing dads for playing catch with their kids. People are getting dragged off train because they are not wearing a mask. People are being threatened with arrest and fines for attending church services during the Holiest time of the year.

That George Washington was right and political parties need to be reassessed. The left has gone so left that they will stop at nothing to make something seem negative. They are not democrats, they are mindless socialists for the most part. Uninspired weak character folk as far as I'm concerned.
There are people on Death Row who have admitted their crimes. There are Lifers and Death Row inmates who acknowledge their misdeeds and have apologized.
Name 1, one, Dem who has lied for years about Trump being a Russian Asset, or conspiring to commit Treason, and said Dem admits they lied, that there is zero evidence, that it was just a coup attempt that failed. Not a single one has said, "sorry, I was wrong" unlike a whole bunch of actual convicts.

Without proper parenting, it can turn people into sheepeople.

It taught me that most Americans are idiots, without savings - the DNC Hates Christians and want to take away you right to assemble. That the media creates reality. This is literally a media creation to hurt Trump - (when it’s over they will pivot and say the shutdown was reckless) that cops will do what they are told, even if it’s retarded. Buy guns and ammo.

I can not disagree with this.

I already knew but this has just confirmed beyond a shadow of a doubt who my domestic enemies are. There are several who frequent this board who promote their authoritarian views amongst anti-authoritarian people who would rather see the 1st amendment protected rather than silence the marxists. We are in a Cold War with domestic authoritarian marxists and I am no longer cautiously indifferent to their agenda. I am prepared to meet them in the streets to defend our freedoms and liberties and will either live or die doing so. Hopefully, we stop the lunacy before that ever occurs. None of us want that.

You’re engaging in a circular argument. There’s no way you can ever be proven right or wrong.

LoL, if the non thinkers would not have stayed home this would be 1000xs worse than what it is.
I could point to Sweden and say that their numbers are not 1000xs worse than what we currently are though.
And that is if we take less restriction than even I wanted to.

You’ve just highlighted the difference between the bulk of the voters in the two political parties. Thinkers vs Sheeple. Unfortunately, the Sheeple brews like rabbits (because they are financially incented to) and the gap in numbers of each will continue to grow. I feel really bad for my kids and God help my grandkids.

And that's why the doomers are pissed about Sweden.

People that do as they are told, regardless of logic and reasoning. Non-thinkers.
People that question what they are being told to do. They use logic and reasoning in processing what they are told.
Unfortunately, the first group has vastly greater numbers than the second.
I think you just described a major difference between Dims (mindless drones) and conservative patriots.....good observation.

As previously stated, it has taught me that we have people just as batshit crazy as the idiots you see on DU.
It has also taught me that some Trump “supporters” apparently think he is the dumbest person to ever walk the planet because they’ve figured out this hoax but he is either oblivious to it, or complicit in it.
Didn’t teach me anything about the media but confirmed what we already knew, that they have no interest in distributing facts to the people and that they’re only there to get quotes that could be used as a “gotcha” somewhere down the road.

It’s taught me that we are all dirty as frick and we all need to wash hands more often and wipe down door handles and stuff.
