I don't see how any historically well-informed person can reasonably preclude the probability that Trump was deliberately trying to follow Hitler's playbook (albeit clumsily, fortunately) for how how to become an absolute despot.
That's the thing. If you are well-informed, you will never don a MAGA hat (unless ironically). Being massively ignorant and tragically misinformed is pretty much a prerequisite for anyone in the Trump cult.
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

Sadly so. :(
No precept or claim is more suspect or more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Just calling them willfully and dangerously ignorant suffices, as far as I'm concerned.

Once the MAGAs start the Congress fire we will all suffer, especially those with known democracy sympathies in the vassal lands of Trumpmania, the New Confederacy, and the Kingdom of Deseret.

The way you describe this it sounds like when the Congress was set on fire the people in these places suffered for real because Facebook told the MAGAs they sympathized with democracy.
The Congress fire was in reference to the Reichstag fire that ended German democracy and propelled the German Chancellor into a permanent dictator for life position. The MAGA movement wants to end democracy in this country and put Trump into that dictator for life position.

It is beginning to become apparent that:

(a) Cultellus is a troll.

(b) He is neither a very intelligent troll nor an amusing troll.

A disappointment all round, in fact.

I must be missing something. Of course, I never read any of the Kingdom threads, so maybe he's made comments there to prompt this.

I've read that Ajax also uses that method.

I did not realize that so many people voted to end Democracy …
They just waited until Jan 6 to show their true feelings.
