      Maybe because we're not stroking off while fantasizing about mass murder? Just a thoughthttps://twitter.com/PhilosophyExp/status/1130799409753726976 …

      This stuff is so blinding obvious. Why on earth does the Left think it has the monopoly on moral outrage & an ability to divide the world up into the righteous and unrighteous? It's ahistorical bonkersness!

      What's that got to do with anything? The Right will just come up with their own version of your maybe, and apply it to you. This is what happens. It always happens.

      They already have, though. That's the point. They've already picked out who they want to annihilate, and they're already taking action to do so. We didn't start this fight, but I'll be damned if I'm going to pretend it isn't happening.

      When Hitler was first building the Nazi party he would deliberately stick posters up announcing meetings in communist areas, because he knew it would provoke confrontation. You people think you'll win any battle on the streets, but it's a high risk strategy. What if you don't?

      What's the alternative? Surrender without a fight? No thanks.

      You do know the history of the Weimar Republic, yes? That Hitler deliberately provoked street fights (because he knew it'd make authoritarian government more attractive).

      Hitler didn't get into power because of street fights. He got into power because the people at the top kept ceding ground to him.

      Don't be silly. There's no single reason why anybody gets into power. The street fighting, and desire for authoritarian crack down, was absolutely part of the story. (As was, for example, endemic anti-Semitism; corporate Capitalism; economic disaster; etc).

      If Van Papen and co. hadn't decided that the Nazis--who never had a popular mandate--deserved a slice of power and a seat at the table, the rest of that stuff would have been moot. So I don't think it's unreasonable to blame capitulation and political maneuvering.

      Well, if that's true, it's a necessary but not sufficient reason. You can't discount the causal background just because you've got necessary conditions. And, at any rate, there were other necessary conditions (e.g., the anti-Semitism).

          I'm not discounting them, I'm saying the one crucial factor that allowed Hitler to take power was the middle-of-the-road politicians thinking they could appease and/or manipulate the Nazis instead of taking a firm stand against them.
