Walter, many may understand that Nazis are evil. The disconnect with MAGA is that they don’t see the parallels between themselves and the Nazis. And they’re extremely offended if you try to point it out.

Yeah, even when it comes to the nazi salute. It's such a bizarre example of cognitive dissonance.

Exactly so.

Just as they don't see the parallels between their racism and the Nazis.

Just as "... they're extremely offended if you try to point" out their racism.

Mostly. Mostly understand. Enough still seem fairly confused though. Such a shame.

Well, I certainly hope so. Lots of Americans hate Nazis but understand very little about the anatomy of Nazism, and others secretly support Nazis but won't admit it publicly. Charles Lindbergh is highly suspected of being a secret Nazi supporter.

One of the great lies of the alt-right is that Nazism was a "left wing" movement. No one in Europe believes that.
