This is the Weimar Republic Analogy that I love and approve of :)

I *hope* that the passage reminds you of someone else. *And* It should *change* your mind about the present situation in many places.

I don't know why.. but I just want to have a tea party..

Like fiddling while Rome burns..

Almost makes me want to rip up this book.

It could never happen here!

Amazing.

Doesn't this sound oh so familiar?

I see so many tendencies... I don't even think I can comment. I should just post screenshots.

I heard Russia, Putin, Russia Russia Russia Putin Collude America Russian Pawn Asset Putin Puppet Russia Democracy Act Russia War Putin

I see no reason to be alarmed.

Hmm...

That's been breached.

THE PMC CLASS BABY!

And...

Spoiler: SPD went after "moderate Nazi voters" instead of forming a broad, multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, class-based coalition of the working class!

Look up ACORN

Would this be similar to say.. "rigging the primary?"

Who watched the Democratic National Convention?

I don't know why.. but it reminds me of Katie Hill...

The SPD had its own MSNBC.

Deindustrialization = Kind of like what NAFTA did to the midwest

Aging base... losing the youth vote to a more left-wing party....

Relying increasingly on aging voters...

Wine Moms?

1918: The base was both Rural and Urban proletarians.

1928: Rural voters gone and most Urban proles gone.. what they were left with was Urban white-collar workers..tech bros... etc etc..

This discourse in privilege has been had.. .and it is definitely a losing battle for the left!

Why repeat it?

Hi, Pete.

Maybe collectivization was a good thing after all compared to the non-collectivization in 1928 : )

What's the statistic on white women voting for Trump?

Reminder to @cmclymer look at what happened to SPD when it used your strategy

I'm never not going to believe the author didn't actually have a time machine into the future.

Incrementalism. Vote for us.... we promise to incrementally make your life slightly less shitty than those other guys.

I guess you can't win by being more hawkish than the right...

Shut up and vote for Biden, you children!

So the left-wing wanted the SDP to purge the country of ethnonationalists infiltrating the military, police, court, justice etc etc?

But, SDP just went "horse-shoe"

"America is already great" vs Whatever nonesense the chuds think of...

We see this today.

In other words, 2009-2011 for the Democratic Party.

Ignoring nom-voters... blaming voters to their left ... sigh.

Punching left is bad.

In other words, centrists colluded to force out the "Jeremy Corbyn" in their ranks and they got...

In other words, Otto Braun Would Have Won!

But they went with the foreign minister who was allegedly very competent.

Purity tests are good.

Don't listen to nat-sec ghouls.

Party unity is bad.

Intra-left fighting is good.

"Lesser evil"

Obama did this.

All too familiar

They also kept on getting played over and over by the right wingers.

This is getting too creepy. I'm gonna try to sleep.
