We don’t need to go as far as the ADL on this issue. The forum tiles themselves give guidelines, including not using Hitler’s Nazi Germany to describe being overcharged for a service. But the question becomes how appropriate is a comparison is it in this case?
Clearly there are directly parallels, as they are both political leaders who used White Nationalism to obtain power, with some really ugly aspects. So there are echos for sure
HOWEVER (in big capital letters). You can draw a direct line between Hitler and the extermination of 11MM with the holocaust, and another 50MM through WWII. In actual deeds and policies there’s simply no comparison. Even by the measures of US Presidents, Trumps role as commander in chief wasnt terribly hawkish, as he preferred to retract from many conflicts (Afghanistan, NATO) and is remarkable for not jumping into a new large scale conflict. On the domestic front, while Trumps court picks have managed to roll back and threaten legal rights of many individuals (LGBTQ, migrants, women) it remains a world of difference between the forced sterilization and imprisonment of many groups under the Nazi regime.
The argument seems to be:IF Trump gets re-elected, THEN it will be just like Hitler. it will be ugly for many for sure, but his track record and even his rhetoric don’t hold a candle to the evilness of Adolf Hitler.
