Jesus Christ you guys need to go outside.

They are literally instructing people to report "wrong think" and threatening retribution if they don't.

Either wake the fuck up or admit you are on the side of fascism.

You need to step outside your myopic manboy bubble of video games and dank memes and start recognizing the shit that's going around you for what it is: fascism.

You just trying to generalize Lemmings? I haven’t touched a video game in at least a month, and the only time I see a meme it’s here?

I’m not saying there’s not cause for concern, but I’ve been hearing every republican since Reagan called “literal Hitler”. It’s boring and extremely hyperbolic.

Yeah, but most of them didn't have top advisors sieg heiling on the inauguration stage. There has been a steady escalation here that shows no signs of stopping. Once you notice that you're actually on a slippery slope, it's no longer a fallacy.

Didn’t say I didn’t think there was cause for concern, but the comparison to Anne Frank is wild hyperbole.

Yes, and comparing 1933 Germany to Nazis is hyperbolic, but it only took them 6 years to get there.

This is history repeating itself. People are seeing the first steps in that direction and calling out where it's going.
