How fucking hard is it to remember that Hitler never won an election? It’s such an integral component of what happened in terms of even a lib understanding of “It could happen here”.

A lot of Amerikkkans think “democracy” and “electoral politics” are synonymous with the Congress/Senate/President model of the U.S. So they have no way to process how a minority party leader can end up being prime minister/chancellor. Thus, “Hitler must have won the election if he was leading Germany.”

I’ve even heard the “explanation” that the Nazis won a majority but not a plurality because Germany had so many parties, and that’s why third parties are a bad idea.

Well, Hitler got rid of third parties. And second parties too.
