Dear Pot, Love Kettle: A letter on the use of “Nazi” to discredit political opponents

Dear Pot,

Remember the COVID lockdown, when citizens were not allowed into places unless they had their proper papers in order? Remember when those people without papers were ostracized, ridiculed, fired from their jobs, and censored–generally relegated to sub citizen–for their views?

Remember during the riots, when a certain governor of Minnesota, despite state-run “fact-checkers” saying otherwise, delayed the request of Minneapolis mayor to deploy the National Guard 24 hours while the city burned–bring up interesting images of Kristalnacht?

Remember how that same governor (and his current running mate for president) recently said, “There’s no guarantee of free speech” in the name of “misinformation” which is defined by those in power? Remember when the current administration tried to create a Ministry of Truth–I mean a Department of Misinformation?

Remember the 2023 RealClearPolitics survey that said 47% of Democrats says that speech should be legal “only under certain circumstances” and that same survey said roughly one-third of Democratics said that Americans have “too much freedom?”

Remember when the current Democractic president called half of the nation’s citizens “garbage.” Others referred to these same citizens as “a basket of deplorables?” Remember how the state-run press and those on his side bent over backwards, did cartwheels, hyper-nuance it, and rewrote history to explain that–and much of everything–away?

Remember when a former president was shot and the state-run press said it was largely his fault?

My dear friend Pot, you’re a Nazi.

Sincerely,

Kettle
