I read the NYT article . Not debunked , just refuted . Not at all the same . <| sep |> Thus our own age is essentially one of understanding , and on the average , perhaps , more knowledgeable than any former generation , but it is without passion . Every one knows a great deal , we all know which way we ought to go and all the different ways we can go , but nobody is willing to move . Sren Kierkegaard , The Present AgeCan you see it ? I know I can . <| sep |> Hitler preached the inherent superiority of the white race . Sanders ? No . Yes , he preached the popular racist rhetoric at the time . The current popular racist rhetoric is that white people are bad . which is what Sanders preaches . Hitler saw military service , fighting in war as the ultimate school of manhood . Because he served in the army in his early youth , hence he said it was the best thing . Sanders was unemployed in his youth , which is why he says welfare is the best . which is to say both men say whatever they did in their youth is the best . and this is another similarity . Hitler objected to women ' s emancipation from home and hearth and saw them as breeders of soldiers . Not necessarily . They were also a very active part of the workforce in addition to giving birth . Hitler railed against degenerate art read stuff I don ' t understand . Not in the 1920 s . Later when Hitler assumed power , as a part of destroying anything and everything done during the Weimar Republic rule , they started destroying art . Hitler singled out an ethnic group as a danger to mankind because of their blood . Not really . It was what was scientific truth at the time . just like the 1 % trying to destroy the environment idea is currently . Hitler duped his supporters into believing he would smash the capitalist and intellectual elites . Turns out he was fine with empowering the capitalists as long as they didn ' t endanger his rule . Bernie Sanders took money and gave it to the Clinton campaign . A name is only a slogan . A slogan is only for marketing . Yep , Democratic Socialism .
