“I have received some guidance to avoid terms, like ‘camps,’ that can be twisted and used against the president, yes,” one Trump ally told the outlet. “Apparently, some people think it makes us look like Nazis.”

I ‘love’ how the US right wing is split into the camp that says “shut up guys, we don’t want people to know we’re doing Nazi stuff” and the camp that says “Oh it’s Nazi time? Hell yeah we’re doing Nazi stuff!”

You have to not look like Nazis if you're fascists because people will catch on quick if you do that. You have to actively do your best to use dogwhistles etc and make what you're saying sound palleteable to most folks until it's too late.
