Sungula views other germans as "their own" - even if the dipshits in the reich didn't. Agno, otoh, buys the dipshits in the reichs contention whole cloth. This is something that he thinks that he agrees with the fascists about.
4.3 million lost men for the wehrmacht. 200ksome-odfd german jews remained in germany after the exodus of the other 300k or so in the years preceding. Other undesirable germans met the same fate, either in camps or hunted down by the einsatzgruppen. Even if we allowed the reichs absurd notions of "their people" - those people would include many allied troops that they fought against.
There is no interpretation of the statement, rational or absurd, that fascists don't kill their own which isn't demonstrably false. They do. In general, they practice on their own before exporting their violence abroad. That's probably the singlemost rational thing about fascism, albeit limited to practicality and process. Our president, likewise, has been practicing here - as he's also been rattling sabers.
I really enjoyed your comments about hoping that history was repeating itself as a farce, but I would point out that even a farce of fascism will damage people. People including Their People™. I find it ironic that Agno is hinging his trollish bullshit on whether or not the The Donald becomes a dictator - because antifa has some thoughts about that. Waiting until a fascist goes full red dragon is waiting until it's entirely too late. Just ask the germans. The underlying subtext is as disgusting as fascism itself. The notion that some genteel form of fascism that avoids becoming a dictatorship would be..better, or just not bad at all.
No dictator, no Bad Thing™.
