Are there any similarities between today's times and the 1930's?

It's something I find concerning.  What do you think?  No need to be consoling towards me.  Maybe give me the truth as you see it!  Most Autistics are good with the truth.

  • The rise of authoritarian political tendencies headed by unscrupulous, to say the least, personality cult figures is worrying. It is hard not to see parallels between Trump, Putin, Erdogan, Le Pen and Orbán and Mussolini, Hitler and Franco. Unfortunately, there are many people who are easily duped by such political charlatans; Hitler gained power through being elected, though he quickly disposed of the need to be elected afterwards.

    Witness what is happening in America right now. In July of this year Donald Trump told Christians that if they vote for him for president this November, 'in four years, you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good, you're not gonna have to vote'.
