That's your prerogative, but you should at least understand that when people bring it up they're not comparing the current Administration's policies as being NaziHitler circa 1938, but NaziHitler circa 1929. The "rise to power" part of Nazi Germany, where the Nazis converted Germany away from a liberal (small-l) "rule of law" society into an authoritarian society where all governmental decisions revolved around a single person and party.
Exactly correct. The Republicans haven't (yet) set up death camps for liberals and atheists. But they are eroding our democracy, with the complicity of Congress who has been giving the Executive more power for decades (because, IMHO, they are too cowardly to take stands for themselves, so they put it all on the Executive). They are demonizing liberals and journalists as enemies of the state. They are compiling enemies lists, and persecuting many of them. Classic authoritarian stuff.
