It's fascist turtles all the way down ... permalink fedilink source parent [–] glorkon@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago* (3 children) I know that Trump secretly admires moustache guy. But I honestly don't think he is well-read or intelligent enough to realize it's exactly the same slogan moustache guy used. With Trump, willful ignorance is always the most likely option because malicious intent requires a degree of intellect he does not possess. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 7 points 11 months ago (1 child) I honestly don't think he is well-read or intelligent enough to realize it's exactly the same slogan moustache guy used.

As a German native speaker, I have listened to almost all of the publicly available Hitler speeches, and I found it incredibly hard to keep paying attention. It's as bad as Mein Kampf - just weird sequences of relatively incoherent segments of his twisted world views. Very hard to follow. And Trump is well known for his extremely short attention span. I would be very, very surprised if that man managed to read even a single Hitler speech from start to finish in one sitting. permalink fedilink source parent [–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 child) Underestimating him is how we got here. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] glorkon@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago* No, underestimating the capacity of a large amount of idiots to recognize all the flaws of this unspeakably horrible person and elect the fucker nonetheless, that's what got us here. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 1 point 11 months ago Secretly admires? permalink fedilink source parent [–] Tingle@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago I'd assume it was Ronald Reagan since it was also his slogan in the 1980's.
