January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany. He accomplished this by dividing the population, intimidating the public with political terrorism (using the Sturmabteilung, the “Brownshirts”), blaming every problem and misery (even a worldwide depression) on the administration in power (Weimar), and scapegoating Jews for the ills of Germany society.
Hitler made lots of promises to the German people to gain the trust of a small majority of the voting public. He held subsequent elections, but violent intimidation and fraud played prominent roles in each one. His Ministry of Propaganda took over all media and pushed only the narratives the Party wanted the public to believe. He exploited a tragedy, the Reichstag fire (which the Nazis may have started), to institute an “Enabling Act” which superseded all civil liberties and laws and undercut the power of the Reichstag to pass and enact laws.
Having used the Enabling Act to make the Reichstag irrelevant, Hitler ruled by decree. Through decree, he imprisoned those who posed a “threat” to national security. He stripped his favorite scapegoats, the Jews, of their rights. Under Hitler, the State took over and controlled where citizens worked, their wages, and their jobs. The State-controlled who citizens could associate with. The State-controlled who could marry whom. The State-controlled what lives were worth allowing continuing. The State-controlled the information the citizens could have access to.
State spending went wild. The nation was pouring money into its military because Hitler had a specific agenda of conquest. He led through an ideology of power, force, threat, and hate. Very quickly, Germany was facing a financial crisis. Hitler placated the public with free education, health care, and vacations.

Yup, here we go again, with the nation’s youth in the first ranks, just like before.
Just like before, we the over 50 crowd, who remember the slight downfall called the Vietnam years, followed by the Reagan years, followed by all the uniparty garbage, that brought us the Trump renaissance, which ignited “the volkstadt” of today.
—and then there is the resemblance to Bolshevism—

Thanks for that link.
Hitler made one promise he kept: "Make my your Chancellor and in ten years you won't recognize Germany."
That’s a good list, Larry. Thanks for the info.
—pretty well shows that the road to totalitarianism is the same, no matter whether the Nazi or communist route—
There are no current charismatic leaders to unite the psycho marxist democrats. Hitler had charisma and inspired pride in Germany and used Germany as something to unite behind. The democrats HATE this country and have pride in nothing. Obama came close but he hated America as well. The democrats can not unite behind anything. God help us if they do.
ya know, there was a book that came out a long time ago detailing and describing the Joe Biden Presidency, it was and still is wildly popular among certain circles. They even made a 3 movie documentary of Joe Bidens Presidency. I have the book and all 3 movies, but They are on IMDB or Pluto TV for FREE!! Part 1,2 and 3 of ATLAS SHRUGGED IS ON TV FREE!!
I strongly recommend...
I feel like the old man in that scene.
Al Stewart: The Last Day of June, 1934
On the night that Ernst Roehm died voices rang out
In the rolling Bavarian hills
And swept through the cities and danced in the gutters
Grown strong like the joining of wills
That’s it. I’m not seeing the Nazi analogies on either side (though we might later, after a hyperinflationary event) but there is plenty of Bolshevism hiding behind Woke masks on Biden’s team right now.
“That’s it. I’m not seeing the Nazi analogies on either side...”
This may help.
In light of the actions of Dr. Anthony Fauci over the past several or more years. Do a review of the Nuremberg Trials and the Nuremberg Code. In particular the case of Dr. Karl Brandt who the United States hung for essentially the same acts as Fauci has and is committing today. IMHO
Without WWI and that Treaty of Versailles there would have NOT been a Hitler ... The commies made hay and the world paid the price.
Hi.
Would you be so kind as to ask Bill at “Flopping Aces,” to donate a Benjamin to FR?
Thanks for listening.

Actually what he said was “Give me four years and you won’t recognize Germany’’.
