.@guywalters So far as I can tell, this is from 'Mein Kampf' - the attribution to Amber Rudd was satire.http://www.lbc.co.uk/radio/presenters/james-obrien/james-amber-rudds-speech-echoes-mein-kampf/ …

I told James about the similarity this morning, and he ran with it.
-
but it's easy to misread that as saying it's Amber Rudd's words with echoes of Hitler's. I think others are reading it that way.
-
Indeed they are. And that's deeply ironic.
-
you're missing my point. Yes, HER words echo Hitler's. YR tweet misleads people into thinking SHE spoke those words, not Hitler.
-
that's the whole point, can you think of a time when whole paragraphs of what you've said could be mistaken for Hitler?
-
my only point was it was misleading 2 quote hitler. It's actually more shocking to read the Amber Rudd quote 1st

I wish you people understood you defile the memory of the actual holocaust victims with petty Hitler comparisons.

German fascism started quietly too. It's the subtle change in dialogue designed to alter perception

<sigh> I knew none of you would (ever) get it but it was still worth a try.
