After Seeing Tucker Carlson Rail On Macy's For Selling "Islamic Fashion"........

I was at the gym last night and someone had left a TV on Faux News. Although there was no sound, I could see it from the machine I was using. Tucker Carlson was on, and the tagline at the bottom said something to the effect of, "Macy's resorts to selling 'Islamic Fashions'" and there was a picture of a woman dressed in a stylish outfit with a headscarf. I can only assume it was another segment of faux outrage against Macy's for having the unmitigated gall to think of Muslims as human. Kinda like when I heard about white nationalists trying to organize a boycott of the movie "Black Panther" because they're afraid having a black superhero might cause people to start thinking that black people are actually human and can do everything that actual humans do. What is it, exactly, about recognizing minorities as equals that scares RWers so much?

I've had this thought before, but last night was when it really became crystal clear to me. We really are seeing the rise of the Third Reich all over again. Just do this little exercise. Whenever you hear a RW'er railing about the evils of Muslims or Immigrants or whichever minority they're trying to blame for all of society's woes this week, just substitute the name of said minority group with the word "Jews" and then TRY to tell me it doesn't sound EXACTLY like a piece of Nazi propaganda from the 1930s.

I used to shy away from comparisons to Hitler and Nazi Germany in years past, because it seemed ultra-hyperbolic, almost to the point of hysteria, and it causes you to lose credibility (kinda like the way extreme RWers try to compare everything they don't like to either Communism or Hitler--remember when Obama was Hitler?), but these comparisons are really starting to become SO spot-on as to be frightening. The parallels are almost impossible to ignore.

If I produced a newspaper clipping or a pamphlet with the headline, "Macy's resorts to selling Jewish fashions," where do you think it would have come from?
