I'm calling horseshoe theory holocaust trivialization. Well, I'm linking to a Jewish holocaust expert doing that.

    At what point does it discuss horseshoe theory? They seem to talk about the holocaust vs the soviets which isn't really what horsehoe theory purports to be about (and again the horseshoe theory is complete bullshit)

    It is about the equating of nazis and Soviets, aka what horseshoe theory purports to be true.

    That's not what the Horseshoe theory proposes. It suggests that the tactics used by both sides are similar, which is often true, and that either ideology could appeal to the people that get involved with far right and far left groups which is the part that is completely unproven and is absolute bullshit.

    The guy who joins ISIS because of how their views of Islam are not honored who thinks the degeneration of society is due to the movement away from Allah is not going to become a communist under different circumstances much like a Marxist is unlikely to adopt a pro-monarchist POV.

    Again Horseshoe theory is bullshit but your source says nothing at all about it.
