I agree with you that the term nazi is way overused by many on the left. That is too bad because there are times when a comparison to the tactics as used in the 30's by Hitler is very meaningful. A big part of what allowed Hitler to gain power and run his gauntlet of evil was his control of the press. We are at a point in time a comparison to the tactics as implemented by Hitler is extremely relevant. Those morons on the right defending any action preventing accessibility to the press in those immigrant camps are as complicit as those in Nazi Germany that did nothing to stop Hitler. ......To make this clear to you; I'm not comparing the two men in any way, I'm comparing the tactics of preventing the press access and I'm comparing the gullibility of those on the right who feeble sit on their hands and defend something that is undefensible!

There's a great big world of people seeing the Nazi parallel. Sorry boyo. It's not just me. Sadface. Gosh I'm glad I'm not you. How embarrassing to go down as a fascist. Is that what you dreamed of being when you were small?

Maybe you are the irrational one and you just don't realize it...

At best, that is only vaguely similar. Which isn't to say it right, but...

In other words, Soviet-style "whataboutism" at its finest.
