    Instead of being baffled go read into similarities (and oh boy there’s a lot!) between the third Reich and US empire. A good place to start is the Nuremberg laws compared to Jim Crow laws.

      I know all about that stuff. The inspiration for German eugenics laws came from the US, anti-semitism in the US prior to WWI, etc.

      Posting this “meme” without any context then don’t be surprised when noone takes the argument seriously.

        I don’t understand. You say you know the context of US being comparable to Nazis already…so what’s the issue?

        Also worth saying, that barely skims the surface of the similarities between the two…
