Each morning, I pass by the plaques commemorating Jews who were dragged out of my building, imprisoned and incinerated.
When I read how people keep comparing free countries to Nazi Germany it trivializes what really happened. Please stop it.

The big question is - was that a really a Nazi salute or just a gesture some claim is a salute because they are biased and maybe a little unhinged? If that is deemed a Nazi salute, then international womans day was full of them!

Based on the global Tesla protests, the crazy theories have already broken out of the American asylum. It was very telling to see how many globally turned out for a conspiracy driven farce - yet they do nothing against industries causing scientifically proven climate change. The planet is doomed.

It is a human right to have freedom of religion. You can believe whatever you want, even if you cannot prove it. As the editor you should push for this paper!

Does that mean Francis Hopkinson was a time-travelling Nazi sympathizer/Hitler fanboy based on that design he came up with back in 1777?
If so, you guys should take his name off the declaration of independence, the scoundrel!

Visas? As per DoS website; A visa grants permission to APPROACH an entry point and REQUEST permission to enter. The officer will make a decision ... and MAY inform you of the reason you were denied. After that highlight, it goes downhill :(
The USA isn't unsafe for foreign travelers, it is insane 😱

Given the number of people from the USA who respond with "Fuck off" the moment you offer any alternate or dissenting opinion, I believe she is a fair and indicative representation of the American people.
And that's the beauty of democracy; the people get what they deserve.

Das ist ein Hodenkobold, oder? That's another word the English-speakers may be using a lot over the next four years 😜

Gemütlichkeit is one of the better German examples.
The English word 'cozy' is probably the closest equivalent, but it doesn't fully convey the social and happiness aspects that are present in the native German use of the word.

If someone wrote he was a liar and a fraud, he can sue the people involved for libel and achieve public vindication without releasing details of the chat he previously claimed breached national security. Are his actions not childish and inconsistent? Where is the patriotism and maturity in all this?

I worked with a guy that sent "Did you see the CFM boots on Jenny? I would totally do her today" to the group, including Jenny, his boss.
Would there ever have been a safe week for that slip up? Methinks not.

A 'scholar of fascism' runs away from his country because he didn't like the actions of his management.
But he accepts a job in a country that has recently closed its "office of religious freedom"?
He obviously didn't learn any of the lessons of 1930's Germany!

Germany - May 10, 1933; The public burning of books written by Jews and political dissidents
So how does your irritation with policies of democratically elected officials in the USA resemble 1930's Germany?
Americans keep making that comparison on social media, but I just can't see it.

If they are willing to abandon their country and flee to one with a track record of recent religious persecution and historical indigenous abuse it may be best to celebrate their departure, not lament it.
The world needs people who are willing to stand and fight for freedom, not run like cowards.

Most, but not all. Water is a molecule that can be created and destroyed e.g. When methane burns the result is CO2 and H2O
