Well good for you. Having lived abroad certainly sets you apart from Trump's base.
Can't really follow your critic though with regards to the attacks. I find the most effective campaign ads are those that use his own words verbatim against him.
And just for the record, I don't consider myself particularly left.
Gotta be careful with that my friend. Given the Putin bromance this may backfire. Much safer to stick to brown people who speak Spanish (bonus points if you rat out obese Latinas). But Arab looking Muslims will do in a pinch.
Well, done. But just to be doubly safe I recommend to also generously apply some spray on tan and to practice the comb over. This way a drone pilot will be able to spot from miles away that you are one of the good guys, who stands with his Mango Mussolini leader.
Not only not mutually exclusive but also highly correlated.
It's what you get with miserable public education, corporate news media that's only in it for the ratings, and a population where most people don't have a passport and never left their country.
And when you really get to hate the color of your living room carpet, I assume you also set that one on fire to then watch it burn from the comfort of your sofa.
It's not a matter of their ruthlessness, but the gathered evidence, which strongly implicates that the plane was shot down with a Russian provided Buk.
Since I don't live in the US Iran would be hard pressed to kill my kids on American soil.
The US is very inept in its foreign policy but it is foolish to buy into the Kremlin storyline hook, line and sinker. Neither the Ukraine situation nor the Syrian conflict is as simple as you paint it, and the US involvement is much more remote than you seem to think.
It is very easy to tap into strong Anti-American sentiments, and to blame everything that's gone wrong on the USA, and Putin's propaganda is very good at that. I bet you even buy into their assertion that MH17 was shot down from Ukraine controlled territory.
Let's see. Enough nukes to wipe out the planet, largest standing army in Europe. Supporting a hot war in the Ukraine, propping up Syria's Assad, which caused millions of refugees to migrate into Europe which is destabilizing the EU.
Yeah, clearly why would anybody care about Russia...
I have no idea how much Trump wants to act on his crazy idea of building a wall, or relocating millions of illegal immigrants. I cannot look into the man's head, and he seems to change his positions and beliefs on an hourly basis anyhow.
What I am suggesting is that his rhetoric and scapegoating of minorities is very reminiscent of pre 1933 Fascists. Not more nor less. Make of that what you want.
If history is any guide then to suggest that once you let this genie of hate out of the bottle it can develop a dynamic of its own.
Sad how the maker versus the taker rhetoric is still alive and well on the right fringe. The targeted minorities change, but the demagoguery remains the same,
I am not talking about children born in the US but brought here when they were little.
And if you can't see the relevance of my point I really don't know how to make it more transparent. If you can't see this when paying close attention to how he works the crowd than I doubt anything I write will help.
BTW I used to like Trump when he was just a celebrity TV personality. He knows how to make an emotional connection. Too bad he figured out that in politics fear and loathing is the one he can most easily run with.
Well, I am German and I listened to Hitler recordings pre-1933. I also listen to the Trump speech that he gave after he came back from Mexico. I found it was chilling. Swap in "Jews" wherever he says "Illegals" and these speeches would be hard to distinguish.
Trump is not a normal candidate, it was funny when it started. It stopped being funny long ago.

The AC didn't strike me as ambitious, but I should have added that in addition to fealty, you also need to keep your head down.
Don't stick out and bring attention to you (neither negative nor positive). That'll do the trick.
The country (formerly know as 'the land of the free') shall be inherited by the makers! It's only fair.
And don't let anybody tell you to pay taxes on the TV that you got from your Arab neighbor. You turned him in, you gotta keep it. No strings attached.
I see that you are really channeling the Movement. It's this kind of enterprising spirit that will make America great again!

Don't think the AC has to worry. The ones that swear fealty to the leader are usually safe in an authoritarian regime.

Nope, all we have to believe is that he has some fans who are really good at the Cyber.
... makes it sound really scary.
... but the degree of entanglement.
Or will different rules apply to Plex than to Kim Dotcom's Mega site?

Funny, how a true sentiment and observation will be classified as trolling.
As to how pre 1933 Nazi propaganda looked like there are plenty of examples. They scapegoated Jews but did not advocate killing them
In this example you will find this gem:
"The Jew is uncreative. He produces nothing"

And it contains many who ended up in this minority status with no fault of their own. Having been brought here by their parents.
Hitler never advocated mass slaughter of humans in his public speeches. Especially not before 1933, that was the whole point of the premise.
Indeed, "Illegal" is not a race or a religion, but it is a minority, dominated by one particular ethnic group.
You get something that doesn't make much sense substituting apples with oranges rarely does.
Giving material support to ISIS? Seems a very appropriate sentence to me.
