I'm not happy with awarding POTD to replies in Crushie threads, but this is deserving as well. Thank you, @Common!

Today's POTD goes to moi.
Huh?
Here's what you people are confusing with the whole democracy/Hitler thing.
Hitler was not elected to chancellorship by a democratic vote. He was elected through a series of backroom deals that brought him to power.
Democracy had nothing to do with Hitler's power. Hitler effectively killed every aspect of what little democracy Germany had since it's inception at the end of WWI, and replaced it with his own theocracy.
Democracy in it's purest form is a direct democracy, with the people voting en masse on programs to benefit the country. Hitler*, through his charm, oratory finesse, or outright bully pulpit, fooled the German people into believing his agenda of purification and genocide, thus precipitating over the years a system of pograms that crumbled the democrat base of the infant democracy of the republic and led the nation into a full fledged fascist totalitarian government.
To compare the state of our government today in any way, shape, or form with Hitler's Germany; as Crushmaster and some of his supporters are doing here; is silly and uneducated. Spew out all the big words you want, it just won't convince anyone.
*Why did I insert an asterick next to Hitler's name? Because I've noticed a disturbing trend in the national political discussion in general and within the charismatic demeanor of some leaders of the right within our government over the past eight years or so that are scaringly indicative of a new, far more dangerous faction of our country along the lines of the insanity that was Hitler's reign.
And, yeah...I've been composing how to post this for two or three days now and now that it's here, I'm giving myself POTD.

Naziism is Authoritarian Irrationalism and a symptom of what kind of putrid anti-decadence a hopelessly decadent ruling class bred, especially its stupidity breeder reactor at the University. It was a degenerate self-drowning into mindlessness and masochistic submission to loudmouth authority.

Heterophobes have to drown their minds in the delusion that they are unfairly persecuted by unnaturally stupid and selfish people. They show all the symptoms of emotionally lashing out in denial when they are exposed as spoiled escapist Mamas' Boys who backed down at puberty from the challenge of growing up.

@Howey
You know, I have nothing but laughs for that basic $#@!. You do not see my ass obsessing over these people to the point of starting threads about them and their pathetic lives.
Here's my response to good old @Philly Rabbit and everyone else that wants to call me out from a distance...
And if we should die tonight
Then we should all die together
Raise a glass of wine for the last time
Calling out father, prepare as we will
Watch the flames burn auburn on the mountain side
Desolation comes upon the sky..

@Howey is Jewish, Sage. That means you like him. He'll be gentle and I've heard it only hurts the first time.

Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.
