Have no idea how people manage to read sh*t like this and not find it utterly terrifying. It was quite obviously not a genuine threat. A man has had his life ruined for daring to speak out against "certain people". And some people wonder how it's possible to make Gestapo allegories .

Pretty much like it is in Egypt, then.

Hoping people are going to knock it off with the Nazi analogies soon, at least until Trump gasses 30 million people and invades most of Europe.

Because as we all know, the best way to stop fascism is to ignore it and make excuses for it until it's taken hold and then try to tackle it. The point is to stop these toxic ideologies from gaining any meaningful platform in the first place.

Oh and also, AGAIN, who gives a flying **** if it's "like that in Egypt" or "Worse than that in Egypt". This seems to be a worryingly common theme these days. Insisting that something is good or acceptable on the grounds that something else is worse . Enjoy your race to the bottom.

No one's suggesting it's more acceptable in the West, but why are you so much more worried about it if it happens in the West than if it happens in Egypt?

Oh gee I dunno, it might be something to do with the $4 billion military budget of Egypt vs the $600 billion military budget of the USA. It makes the prospect of fascism taking hold there slightly more worrying. Just slightly.

It's not Nazism but it's definitely a dictatorship of it's own kind.

If this guy was going to really do harm to Trump he wouldn't be posting it publicly online.

At the end of the day I believe what should've happened is that Facebook banned him, and that at most The Police did a checkup to see if his mentally stable.

Plenty people who have ended up involved in terrorist activities have posted about it first on social media. The likelihood is that he broke some other condition that would have resulted in him getting the boot anyway, so he thought, what the hell, may as well post

..this makes me think of Andreas Lubitz who crashed the plane into the French Alps and what he had apparently said... "One day I'm going to do something that will change the whole system, and everyone will know my name and remember." ...I know that Emadeldin Elsayed was not licensed to pilot a plane yet but hmmmm, would I want to be in a passenger plane in however many years time that he was piloting, in full knowledge of him saying this, whether it was serious or not...even more so, would I want either of my children, any of my family to...that part for me is nothing to do with his religion at all, it's that he's intending to become a pilot and to become responsible for human lives...anyways, I still personally think that there is something/or somethings that we don't know with this as to why charges were not made in an agreement of him self-deporting....

Nonsense. All the rednecks that threatened to kill "Barack Osama" weren't even given a second look.

That's true. The 'strange fruit' comments were appallingly threatening.
