Trump embraces Hitler's propaganda techniques to convince people of total BS

It is exactly how the Democrats have been manipulating the American people for decades. They repeat the lie over and over and over. The left controls the media and our educational institutions. You hear left wing propaganda in every TV show, in every movie and all of the time in the mainstream media. College professors will give students a bad grade if they do not repeat back to them exactly what they told them to think. If the student showed any type of independent thought they got marked down or failed the class. This has been going on for a few decades. My wife had to suffer through an English class in college like this. She had to regurgitate the exact leftist indoctrination points or she would have failed the class. It made her want to vomit but she did it anyway.

The fact that Trump said this is because he learned it when he was a Democrat. He only left the Democrat party a few years before he ran for president and he only became a Republican the day he decided to run. There was a whole lot of things Trump was saying right after he announced his candidacy that sounded just like what Democrat think. His handlers had a real tough time trying to get him to sound more like a Republican.

As someone that has undertaken many post secondary educational credentials themself, I'm not oblivious to the fact that if one wants to achieve high grades in any given discipline, the best way to achieve such is catering to the ideologies of any given professor - rightly or wrongly - thinking that once you graduate you're now truly free to be able to express honest opinions.

Once in the professional world, however, individuals soon discover the only way to advance therein is if they perpetuate ideologies their employers promote, whether they believe them or not. Some refuse to do so (as it goes against their own personal ethics and they seek out employment elsewhere more conducive with their values) while others quite willingly engage in a game wherein they sacrifice every ethical standard they previously professed to support in order to achieve career advancement, fame and/or future fortune.

Unlike many, I always knew when it was time to walk away from those willing to compromise ethical standards in pursuit of any goal, for in my opinion, once one sacrifices ethical princples, they'll willingly engage in and/or support any illegality that furthers their cause.

While I've never supported Cheney's political ideologies in the past, I do, however, completely respect her recognising and calling out corruption with her own party, as too Kinzenger, Romney, et al.

"Once in the professional world, however, individuals soon discover the only way to advance therein is if they perpetuate ideologies their employers promote"

I have never ever had to do that. Worked at one company where the owner was an extreme leftist. I knew where she stood. I kept my mouth shut and she knew where I stood. We got along great. She was one of the better bosses I've had. We just didn't talk politics. But then politics is something that does not belong in the work place anyway. I rarely will ever talk politics at work because I am not paid for my political opinions, I am paid to write software.

Later a gay friend of mine told me not to mention my religion in a job interview that he got for me. Not that I would mention religion in a job interview. I do have a feeling had I gotten that job (at that time I wasn't qualified for it) I wonder how long I would have lasted there before some how it got out that I was a Mormon working in a company that was ran predominately by gay people in San Francisco during the proposition 8 debates just prior to the that election. They most likely wouldn't have just fired me, they would have executed me by firing squad at sunrise.

There is really no corporate latter for programmers. I suppose I could have moved up into a managerial position but if you know any software developers than you know that is death to them. We like writing code. We don't like meetings and we hate not writing code. It is a mental illness that we all suffer from. :)

I love hearing feedback from individuals such as yourself, who not only continue to inform me about others' perspectives and lived realites in a highly respectful manner but further, help to remind me that that my own perspective (based on personal educational and/or lived experiences) is always based on incomplete (and potentially biased) knowledge.

Thank you. That is how we all learn from each other.

Yep, he actually stated that at a recent 2021 CPAC conference - exactly what Goebbels and Hitler said decades ago - to get Germans on board with wiping out the Jews decades ago.

Oh he stated one of the most known quotes from Hitler to defend himself from attacks from the democrats during his presidency.

And that is your prove he does it?

Okay you quoted it yourself in your meme so... You are Hitler/Goebbels?

FFS... are you really going to proclaim complete ignorance as to Trump's 1st wife, Ivana, previously stating that Trump kept Hitler's speeches on a bedside table during their marriage? It's not exactly a coincidence he's currently using the very same propaganda techniques that Goebbel and Hitler engaged in during their reign of terror in Germany decades ago, in order to somehow still retain a semblance of political power and/or revelance, no matter how illegitimate it may be.

If I haven´t heard Antifa quoting Hitler in the 90s you would might get me with that.

Shall I hold them to the same standart you use? Then it is even worse for Antifa because the book "Mein Kampf" is illegal in my country.
4years long your new left made 50% of the shit Trump did up. You would have a better stand in todays political climate if you were not so greedy and just had taken the shit he actually did.

People watched his speeches and heard what the new left twisted them into and became disillusioned with them. How is that for Disinformation? How good have the "send Trumptard to reeducation centers" comments hold up? That is why you have this ongoing culturwar that tears your nation appart.

Both your parties are burning you down. Your youth of both sides in their party organized and media driven hate would join the Hitleryouth and not realize it.

I can really not say anymore if I want you to stop or If I want you to destroy yourselves faster.

I read both Anne Frank's Diary and Mein Kampf decades ago, along with a great deal of other literature surrounding that period of time. At that time, I could never fully comprehend how Hitler/Goebbel were able to convince so many German citizens to go along with his destructive plan until I studied psychology many years later.

Now, after having lived through 4 years of Trump, it all makes perfect sense. He's using the exact same propaganda techniques to brainwash his base as did Hitler with equal success. The only thing that truly shocks me now is that in an age where global knowledge is literally at everyone's fingertips - and it's so much easier to discern fact from fiction - very few Republicans ever bother to conduct any type of research into such. They apparently seem to be quite content to being told what they should believe by a perceived 'authority figure' without question.

You could never understand how a war torn country´s citizen looking for anything they can hold onto fell for a person giving them an unpopular people group to blame for everything for?

... yeah that is why I am very concerned for the democrats. 4years of all the blame pushed onto a target without thinking about the problems at hand. Viva la Hatemonger.

Funny how both sides saw the rise of authoritarianism under Trump but both focus on the other side more.

I can understand desperate people seeking out desperate solutions and being willing to latch onto anyone that give them hope of a better tomorrow. I also understand how those people are easily conned by shysters and Trump, bar none, is the greatest conman the US has ever witnessed.

What? 'Antifa' didn't even exist in the 90s. Try again TROLL with something more convincing based on actual facts.

You believe that Antifa is something new? Cute. It came from my country to yours

Fascism and the fight against such has existed for many decades internationally but 'Antifa' itself is a relatively new phenomenum within the US. Care to disclose where you originally hail from and your own personal experiences of having dealt with such?

Germany.
I have punched more actual Neonazis between 92 and 97 than you probably have met, a friend of mine to this day has to pay Schmerztensgeld (pain and Suffering money) towards a Neonazi for kicking his balls to mush.
I stepped away from Antifa when I got notice that a NeoNazi died in hospital after a clash at a demonstration (Totschlag, I believe the term in english would be manslaughter). So don´t give me the "Antifa never kills" attitude. We just usually don´t hear of the aftermath.

For me now NeoNazis and Antifa are the same ill. Taking aimless teenagers as their tools of political violence.

I don't and never have associated with political extremists from any given party. That being said, I do not agree with your assertion that neo nazis and antifa within the US are of the same ilk. The former believe in white supremacy and think violence is completely acceptable to achieve their aims. The latter however, generally tend to be more focused on the preservation of human and/or civil rights for all and normally only ever engage in violence during acts of self defence. That's why right wing extremists are deemed to be terrorists within both the US and Canada but Antifa are not.

Hard to believe that all sides are shit.
I get it you need something to be true, just and good.
Beware that you one day don´t defend your abusive spouse.

As a teenager, I figured out that all politicians use 'spin' to gain votes and that no single party is ever capable of addressing, nor satisfying, the multiple different interests the vast majority of any given populace care about and that compromises were always needed between opposing parties in order for any society to healthily advance.

I'm not an idealist who thinks 'my party, right or wrong'. I'm more of a realist that recognises there are many conflicting opinions as to what should be prioritized and that balances always need to be struck with oppostion parties.

Don't worry about me every defending anyone that is abusive or corrupt. I'm very much like Paul Gosar's siblings regarding such.
