Recently I watched “Nuremberg,” a 2025 movie based on the international military tribunal held to try the Nazi high command following the end of World War II. The charges were crimes against peace, war crimes, crimes against humanity and of a common plan or conspiracy to commit those crimes.
YouGov polls (2025): Liberals were more likely than conservatives to say political violence can sometimes be justified to achieve political goals. About 25% of "very liberal" respondents and 17% of "liberal" ones agreed. A follow-up snap poll showed that 18% of liberals and 7% of conservatives agreed. Younger liberals showed the highest rates.
NPR/PBS/Marist poll (October 2025): 28% of Democrats overall said violence may be necessary to "get the country back on track".
Other surveys (e.g., Economist/YouGov analysis): Liberals (especially under 40) were more likely to condone political violence or express schadenfreude over opponents' deaths than conservatives.
Support often rises among those feeling out of power, perceiving extreme threat, or holding traits like high aggression, "need for chaos," dehumanization of opponents, or authoritarian/populist tendencies.
So, who is it that we should be afraid of becoming NAZIs?
Based on what we have all been able to observe over the last decade, the answer is obvious.
How about we see more honest thought and opinion on these pages rather than the same old tedious Liberal canned talking points and trash talk pointed at a majority of the Country.

No one in the U.S. government is a Nazi. Trump isn't a Nazi. Trump voters aren't Nazis. Saying it louder or more often won't make it so.
Enforcing the law isn't fascism. Doing your job isn't being the Gestapo.
Trump won the election—and the popular vote—after promising to secure the border and enforce immigration law. That's what he's doing.
Opposing that isn't 'resistance to fascism.' It's resistance to democracy.
Blocking law enforcement isn't peaceful protest. Manufacturing chaos and then complaining about the response is dishonest.
Where activists aren't interfering, ICE operations are routine and incident-free. The disorder and its consequences stop when the obstruction stops.
