Rep. Rosa DeLauro and Rep. Sean Casten May 29, 2026

We were planning to visit the village of Ras ‘Ein al-’Auja in the northern West Bank. But three weeks before the trip, all 700 residents of the village fled due to violence from nearby settlers. When we drove through the ruined remains of the village, we saw groups of Israeli settlers having a picnic.

We were able to visit the village Fasa’il al-Wusta in the Jordan Valley. When we visited, six out of eight families had fled. Two weeks later, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) demolished the home of the family we visited. Now only one of those families is left.

At least the Nazis were simple and easy to quantify. Contemporaneous fascism is so much more complicated…

(of course it really isn’t though)

They certainly have a different style of external propaganda that seems to work much better than what the Hitler regime was doing.

Hitler didn’t have to deal with the TikTok crowd. If he did, Nick Fuentes and such would have been his go to.

However, it scary how similar the tactics for brainwashing seem to be

The Internet only made it easier

The methods they use to control public thought certainly are more complicated, though.

Over 80 to 100 years, one would think they would have been some evolution

But the fundamentals are disturbingly similar. The Internet only made the virus spread quicker.

I mean if they had a leader who wasn’t 80 to 100 years old

they learned outright violence often is responded in kind quickly snuffing out facsim pretty quickly. now they just work behind scenes, funding politicians, spreading propaganda do the dirty work.

What are you talking about? From star to finish, the Nazis had almost a solid 12 years in power, and that’s not including the several years they built power beforehand. There was nothing “quick” about it.

Fascism has always had a slow creep into power and has always taken a long time to root it out wherever it has been. Remember Victor Orban? And how long it took to get him out of power?

Well, their book specifically calls for genocide so I suppose this is essentially a return to form for them.
