Sure, there are also some notable differences, such as weird hair vs weird mustache; also hating immigrant, liberals, and trans people vs hating immigrant, liberals, and Jews.

But yeah. Fascist authoritarian hateful repressive corrupt grifting tyrannical *ssholes committing blatant evil in the name of god.

"This reality should be like WE think it should be...or you should do 2 things punishment, Die"
I've tried to talk to a few Right-wingers like "Why does it bother you about sex and who or the Male or Female?"
Winger "It's wrong ..Just wrong. Certain things HAVE to be right..ect..ect..."

After a time my science mind breaks down and I say "Go fuck yourself"

that we ALL may be needing to carry with us at all times, a CERTIFIED COPY of our Birth Certificate, and some form of Federal Government Picture I.D.

Even though, when targeted individuals have immediately produced papers to ICE/BorderPatrol, they don't even look at the papers, and brutally arrest them anyway........

Doing exactly the same things German nazis did in the 1930s. I don’t see any difference. They have removed all doubt for all with eyes to see.

... by comparing Republicans to them. To the fans of the ahistorical and otherwise silly, it probably rings true. But, not being anything close to true, it doesn't serve those poor folks super well. It goes right over their heads as a joke, landing squarely on them. Which could even be the intent, I suppose.

No, the Republicans aren't Nazis.

(And the smart people are laughing at me. "Really? You don't say! It's Friday, dude. Pass the bong." )
