RT @kumailn@twitter.com I know there are a bunch of people upset at the Nazi comparisons, but the highlighting-crimes-by-immigrants move is literally what the Nazis did, with Jews instead of immigrants. A sure fire way to stop being compared to Nazis is to stop acting like them.

Seriously... I'm hesitant to embrace comparisons to Nazi Germany but inhumane treatment of a minority group is how it all started (long before WW2, escalated throghout 30s). And does not take political sci degree to see Trump loves idea of authoritarianism.

@andreyk id agree. I don't think we've hit the Holocaust yet, but we are demonstrating many parallels with the early Nazis. The part where i can argue we may be closer to the holocaust than many realize is that these refugees are fleeing global warming induced food insecurity. Sending them back may be sending them to an indirectly admistered genocide.
