I've read a fair amount of history (half my family is from germany, and the other half, jews who escaped in time) and what's happening now is remarkably similar to what happened in the lead-up to WWII, historically speaking.

We're not being hysterical, we're being realistic. Trump is mostly a buffoon but Miller, Musk, and Vance are all truly evil people (I don't say this lightly) whose vision for America is truly terrifying. Like, Handmaid's Tale wasn't speculative fiction, but a working manual for these guys.
