Yes motivation matters.
Hitler was monster who wanted absolute power. Forgive the Soldiers of D Day for saying "FUCK YOU"
Yes, the left has gotten into the frey, but far less than the fascist right. But between the two, anyone who is fighting against the orange asshole is far more on the right side of history.
Good job pulling the ‘Hitler’ card.

LOL...

The motivation in both cases is exactly the same --
"We want it OUR way!"

I condemn these cunts.. I condem the "Antifa" cunts....
Cunts are cunts - regardless of political leanings.

2020, When americans began to virtue signal by distancing themselves from anti-fascism.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Hitler gained power by selling victimhood. He gained power by selling otherism. He gained power by scapegoating outsiders. He gained power by selling himself as the only cure. He gained power by vilifying the press. He gained power by purging his ranks of dissent.
Now, it is true that America has a Constitution that makes such tactics harder to be successful. But please spare me, Trump from the start, has used every fucking tactic Hitler did. If you want to argue anything, Trump sucked at it. He came close, but he never gained enough control like Hitler did.

Hitler, scapegoated entire races and religions.

Hitler vilified political rivals.

Hitler sold blind loyalty and hyper nationalism.

Hitler threw his own ranks under the bus when they failed to be blindly loyal.
Trump has thrown those in his ranks under the bus for not being blindly loyal.
It is not a "dead horse" it is a fact of our species short term memory.

I am still somewhat scared. Not as much since Nov 4th. But the fact today that the VP will not ceremonially confirm Biden's win today, because of Trump's incitement gives me pause long term.
