It seems that the MAGA movement is earily similar to what I learned about the Nazis before Hitler took office? Like blind obedience and hatred toward certain groups? Or am I wrong? Why? (lemmy.world)

The people trump pandered to are specifically the most well-armed people. And the ones with the least barrier to using them. I really hope it goes the way you think it will, but it certainly doesn't seem like it will be in the good guys favour if it does come down to actual combat. Good guys have less weapons and more hesitation to use them.
