    This individual seems to believe that everyone who voted for Trump, 63 million fellow citizens, is a Nazi. That's incredibly corrosive to social cohesion. And of course, the current rhetoric around "concentration camps" reinforces this incendiary beliefhttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1146995934150234112 …

        The right engages in its own form of dehumanizing rhetoric -- usually scapegoating the powerless -- but the new "radical liberal" belief that half the country is Nazis has a major impact on national political narratives, given how influential people like TJ are in activism/media

        How can you expect to have a functional society or political system when you cast millions and millions of fellow citizens as intrinsically evil in these kinds of rigid, absolutist terms? How do you persuade anyone of anything? The power analysis on display here is totally warped

        It's almost like it's all a narrative to provoke civil unrest or something so the democrats can run on bringing peace and stability back.

        same principle as denying that there's a border crisis and not approving more funding for the border, and then a few months later claim that there is a crisis and it's all trump's fault

        Or maybe it's all a way of pushing people to get caught up in talking about political parties instead of the people paying them. Parties are not the ones who have decided to mine every resource in this and every other country for a few more dollars of profit.

        If you want to talk about fascism, racism, pitting groups against each other, then talk about the privileged elites who create all of it to consolidate power. Don't get lost in their head games.

        You know what else is bad for social cohesion? Rounding up asylum seekers and putting them in horribly inhumane conditions (concentrated in camps, one might even say)

        If only it were just that rhetoric. Every point of contact he makes with the cultural orthodoxy will reinforce his belief. As per the data, the orthodoxy is radicalized.https://twitter.com/JohnFMiller86/status/1147130392555610112 …

        Knowing what I know, I feel social liberal media and academia are wilfully gaslighting people at this stage. This is a thread full of data I've compiled over years of general browsing/reading. Let's start with the radicalization across the New York Times' output. pic.twitter.com/UGw45HUipY

        Agree with you on a lot of things, Michael. But, to mix metaphors, I think you’re paddling up the wrong creek without a paddle on this one — to limit the term “concentration camp” to its association with nazis is to ignore a lot of history

        Yeah, but that's just kind of human nature, most notorious example wins. Ghandi was also an ethnic nationalist, perhaps even a national socialist, but the insane excess of the Nazis means that they get ownership of that label instead.
