Did I say that? Howzabout you read what I've written? I was trying to explain to you the reason why there are some parallels. I did not say that those reasons are the big reason why Hitler was a cunt. Some of them (racist politics, anyone?) did make him a cunt even without the Endlosung ... and are also shared by Trump.
If you need further explanation, let me know and I'll try. But bear in mind that I can't type any slower than this, and I don't really have any patience with some asshole online strawmanning me when I'm writing perfectly plain English.

Seems like it's at the heart of every campaign. Find a group of people and call them evil. NRA, religous right, hollywood elite, wallstreet, 1%, blacks, Hispanics, whites, males, atheists, educated, uneducated, people who watch fox news, people who went to ivy league schools.... and on and on and on and on and on.
And now we have a parallel between modern America and Weimar Germany -- fractious, bitter politics with an evacuated middle, a refusal to compromise. But that doesn't mean that the parallels between Trump and Hitler are imaginary, or commonplace.

Bullshit. Since they're apparently everywhere, name three politicians who practice that regularly, and bring examples of their big lies.
You and I both know you're full of shit on this point. Or, you don't know what the Big Lie is. It is not your run-of-the-mill political lying.

Some politicians are shittier than others ... unless you're spending a day or two trying to defend Trump by making him look normal.
Your lack of perspective is startling.
