Please enlighten me as to how that compares to today. Who exactly do you see as the next Hitler? Could you be over-reacting a bit there. I find you using their brave sacrifice as a weapon to try to control the thoughts of others quite disrespectful.

Personally I see much more controlling forces than a few extreme right wing thugs.

I find your brand of thought control disrespectful frankly, it compares in respect to the media sanctioned propaganda that infects minds against sub sections the way it did in the 30s.

There is no one entity but a lurch toward an ideology that relies on the divide and conquer method, and it's working.

As I've said should you find those fighting against fascism to be on a par with those actively advocating fascism then you have my sympathy.

It isn't fighting fascism its attempting to control people's thoughts, and using such tactics is not acceptable in my book. No sympathy required.

Only those who aren't in control of their own minds are susceptible to having their minds controlled by others, Brillo...

When people step back from their team for a second and start thinking rationally is when progress is made.I've seen videos of Charlottesville where individuals from each faction were talking to each other and shaking hands and talking about finding common ground.It's when the ideologies cloud people's judgement and become all consuming that there are problems.Some people can't step away from their obsessive political ideologies.

I saw those images too... people from each side shaking hands and talking. I'd like to see more focus on that on the news.

Definitely.It is the way forward.It sets a good example to the rest when they become weary of the war and political mindset.

Are you suggesting fascism doesn't exist? That there is no such thing as a fascist and all these anti fascists are simply thought police, you are aware of how infected that sounds surely?

I'm not saying that controlling peoples thoughts isn't a thing btw... As an example see the recent 'Muslim problem' article in the sun, or anything written by katie hopkins.
