A thought experiment … let’s take a step back here.
What if it was true that Trump was “literally” Hitler, and “literally Hitler” just doesn’t mean what we tend to think it does?
It is painfully obvious that he is not “Hitleresque in reality” - out to exterminate people, enact eugenics, “conquer Europe”, etc. (Leave your “truth of Hitler” at the door, please. Let’s operate within the prevailing narrative, here). This tends to be where we get defensive, as a lot of meanings are associated to those things that we don’t support, nor do we believe that Trump supports them (and we believe our opponents do support them).
What if what “literally Hitler” actually means, is that when the “Actual Nazis” who work at “The Atlantic” write about him in [their] literature, [they] and [their subscribers] would focus on literarily calling him “Hitler”, for literary propaganda purposes, in their literature? (Sub scribe ers… the people under the spell of their scribings?)
I.e. I’m being redundant here to emphasize literally “literally”.
Since they control nearly all corporate media, it would effectively mean that he was to be called Hitler and have all his actions referred to as Hitleresque and be given character motivations corresponding to Hitler whenever he was written about in their publications, which again is all of them, as part of one of the biggest propaganda pushes in all of history.
HONK.
propaganda (n.)
1718, "committee of cardinals in charge of foreign missions of the Catholic Church,". The word is properly the ablative fem. gerundive of Latin propagare "set forward, extend, spread, increase" (see propagation).
Hence, "any movement or organization to propagate some practice or ideology" (1790). The modern political sense ("dissemination of information intended to promote a political point of view") dates from World War I, originally not pejorative or implying bias or deliberate deception. Meaning "material or information propagated to advance a cause, etc." (1929)
To put it another way, what if the phrase “literally Hitler” is all about [their] intentions, and not about Trump’s?
(If any of this is troubling, reread it very carefully with double meanings in mind. It’s difficult to shift word meanings in writing, and I’m not sure this accomplished that goal)
The people who write this dreck would be triggered into severe PTSD if they only knew...how many people in the US and around the world WISH Trump could assume the role of authoritarian dictator, and FIX THIS SHIT already
When the ship of state is literally in the act of sinking, a benevolent dictator can do far more to right the ship, more permanently and far more quickly, than any other type of leadership
If we're going to give him only one more term (that's IF), then let it be unfettered
I would say the NEWSMEDIA is in the quicksand and are thrashing which causes even more sinking (allegory) due to the newsies ALWAYS LIEING ABOUT PDJT!!!!!
For some time now I have thought that PDJT is going to go GHENGIS KHAN ON THEM AND I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!!!
Hitler loved Jews, visited Israel, prayed at the Wailing Wall while wearing a yarmulke, let his daughter marry a Jew, and hired many Jews as advisors and personal confidants
Hitler loved and respected homosexuals, waved their flag onstage and allowed them to speak into his microphone; he even instituted an initiative to legalize homosexuality worldwide
Hitler hated war and killing, started no wars, never amassed military materiel and personnel for a rampage across Europe, and loved his fellow Europeans...he just wanted everybody to stop dying
Hitler never abused or even used drugs, did not have a raging amphetamine addiction
Hitler allowed one and all to criticize him as vehemently as they wanted, using any terminology, as much as they wanted, for as long as they wanted, and to viciously spread lies about him in every newspaper in Germany, with absolutely zero repercussions: no imprisonment, beating, execution, or punishment of any sort
Hitler was famously gentle and kindhearted, often unexpectedly lavishing thousands of dollars on people for doing kind acts, even paying off their mortgage
Hitler was known as a builder, not a destroyer; he changed the skyline of German cities and made the value of his real estate holdings soar
Hitler was married to one of the most beautiful women on earth and always treated her with the utmost respect and dignity
Hitler was extremely popular and beloved all over the world; he was revered as a great negotiator and peacemaker, one who could end wars before they began
The Atlantic has a death wish me thinks. We wonder how the left can have such an inverted sense of reality. It’s from reading these controlled propaganda rags.
🤔...I wonder if the people who thinks Trump is Gen. Patton cancel out the people who thinks he is Hitler?
One thing is for sure though...that Trump sure keeps them guessing...or is it just 'good oi' tactical misdirection 😆

The title is fake. But looks like Goldberg is actually the author.
When this is over, the entire legacy "media" needs relegated to the ash bin of history.
They have almost no audience, so they are there now.

For a second I thought you were actually talking about Hitler.
This is exactly what I was getting at, just applied in the other direction lol
“Hitler is literally Trump.”
"The Reincarnation." Wow...

...yeah that and desperation breeds sloppiness...and kamala-chameleon is as sloppy as they come
🤔...I wonder if the people who thinks Trump is Gen. Patton cancel out the people who thinks he is Hitler? One thing is for sure though...that Trump sure keeps them guessing...or is it just 'good oi' tactical misdirection 😆
I reckon people just don't understand any of this.
(((Jeffrey Goldberg)))
There is nothing similar between them.
Anyone who uses that word, but is unable to give its proper definition, should be fined and jailed.
