Good specialist engineers designed gas chambers in Nazi Germany

Apparently you're not supposed to make comparisons to Nazi Germany (Godwin's law if you want to be too-online about it); it's considered gauche I suppose. What's funny is that that strikes me as a really good rule to follow if you do in fact want to sleepwalk your society into an analogue of Nazi Germany.
Seeing as the closer in ideology you seem to have to be to make such claims, I don’t believe what you’re saying is true for a second.
