Article: Here's why its entirely appropriate comparing Donald Trump to Nazis

https://www.alternet.org/heres-why-its-entirely-appropriate-compare-donald-trump-nazis?src=newsletter1093541

snip of article:


The only discernible difference between what Donald Trump is doing to undocumented immigrants on our southern border and what the Nazis did all over Europe to Jews is that the Nazis had to go from house to house to round up their victims, while all Trump’s Border Patrolhas to do is wait for their victims to walk or swim across the border.

Russia is a "White Russian" supremacy state with 53 political organizations that profess Fascism and Neo-Nazism. In 2007, one half of the world's Neo-Nazis were Russian. Racial Propaganda was a Hallmark of the old USSR. The USSR weaponized Racism as it wielded White Russian supremacy against its minorities while preaching the homogeneity of Socialism. It is estimated that during its 70 years of existence, the USSR killed between 8 to 10 million people during its "ethnic cleansing" operations.

PUTIN'S' RUSSIA EMPLOYS the same MILITARY TACTICS OF ETHNIC DIVISION that were employed by the USSR but enhanced by Putin's intelligence operatives who are among the best in the world. After all, Putin has a spy college! In 2008, the Russians realized The U.S. conservative movement was ripe for manipulation after Barack Obama's election. The first target was Sarah Palin who was fresh from her unsuccessful run for Vice President. THROUGH PALIN, THE RUSSIANS EASILY PENETRATED THE HIGHEST ECHELONS of the religious right, the gun lobby and the Republican party. For nearly a decade, the Russians have lavished these groups with money, gifts foreign women, and free vacations including group excursions to Russia.

The Kremlin's 2016 interference operation was not only to elect Trump but to also turn America against his self by cultivating, encouraging and provoking conflicting groups that would create internal disruptions and prevent the US from promoting a liberal International order. The message to American racists: Russia is the key to White survival, The Kremlin is the most powerful " "White Power" in the world and Putin is the real leader is free world.

GOOGLE: (1) Sarah Palin was approached by Russian ambassador, (2) The Incestuous Relationship Between Mark Burnett, Felix Sater, Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump and Sarah Palin, (3) How Putin's oligarchs funneled millions into GOP campaigns, (4) Which Republicans received $7.35 million from Russians in 2016, (5) A Study: America's Neo-Nazis don't look to Germany for inspiration, they look to Russia, (6) How Russia became the leader of the global Christian right, (7) Guns and Religion: How America's Conservatives Grew Closer To Putin's Russia, (8) The emerging alliance between Putin and Trump God squad, (9) How Putin's Russia uses Soviet era tricks to evoke racist white fears, (10) Fanning the flames of America's racial tensions is as Russian as vodka and blini.

It is important to note that military personnel and veterans made up 42% of Russian hacking targets in 2016. I guess, a despot needs an army? GOOGLE: Russian Propaganda Targets U.S. Military Veterans and Troops on Social Media.
