Um. So it was the third Reich, a nationalist (hence far-right) movement that butchered millions of Jews. Hitler is known today as a fascist dictator. I see no parallels whatsoever between Adolph and Kamala.

You're not American so I'll give you a pass on a lot of what you said. You are misinformed, so I encourage you to balance your reading time between all news sources coming out of America. Together, they'll paint a better, broader picture for you. Not many do that here in the USA, and so you have political enemy encampments as is we're fighting some existential war for America's soul instead of just electing another president. Which is what we're doing...just electing another president.

As to Musk--I was impressed by what his team of engineers were able to pull off the other day. I have no problem with Musk the space pioneer, but I have a problem with his sycophantic behavior toward Trump. As a New Yorker who has been watching Trump's career as a frequently bankrupt real estate mogul for a long time now, I don't understand why anyone like Musk would denigrate himself by dancing on stage with that reprehensible man. All the things you mentioned about a "fourth Reich" are being dog whistled by Trump. His rhetoric around immigrants is sickening and will get people killed.

While I don't believe people will be (intentionally) killed by a Trump presidency, I do think another four years of Trump will be a waste of resources and potential as the world watches Trump live out his jerk off fantasy of chasing after the people who've accused him of felonies (of which he's faced 92 counts and has already been convicted). I listen closely to what Trump says because in between the dog whistling he is saying exactly what he wants to do as president. And bringing the country together has nothing to do with it.
