Are you suggesting that former president Trump was responsible for the internment of Japanese in WW2?

The concentration camps came later.
First, Hitler rose to power by appealing to workers (despite actually being pro business). He broke the law and was put on trial, but this only caused his support to increase.
On the basis of his celebrity he was able to raise money and win election to government. He went on to use the Reichstag fire as a pretext for taking over the government he was ostensibly there to serve.
So it’s intellectually fine to draw parallels between Nazi Germany and the extreme right in the US because those parallels really do exist.
It’s the diminution of these parallels that I find disturbing. Such as the use of a divisive political symbol in a technical article.
Agreed.
> this is a literal Nazi-ism
Uh…what? I’m struggling to recall the locations of the concentration camps in the USA.
We also shouldn’t keep the guy I don’t like is Hitler meme alive.
