    Fundamentalist is he?

    Point 2: I get ya. Had me confused. Took me a sec.

    Was drawing historical parallel. Note word “unpopular” in particular.

    Kinda “don’t forget Hitler had supporters”, ya? If I hadn’t clicked that paraphrase woulda left me with opposite impression, would note when paraphrasing pls

    Also IDK if credible cuz read one Wiki page (JK read 15% of it)

        Interesting read from people who hate him and say he is a piece of shit, from five years ago

        Also see my initial interpretation of it

        Too bad it was on Twitter, I’d ask him for clarification, but we don’t do Twitter do we :)

        PS: off topic - realize how careful I have to be when being irreverent and post stuff bitingly bitter (no /s, gets upvoted, and is hardcore sarcasm), so thank ya. Maybe I should try /s to protect my little reputation given ease, least for Palantir, of tying accounts to IRL

        • The way I understand it is, “Hitler had supporters because his methods (however unconscionable) reduced crime”. My problem with this statement is that it implies that he actually reduced crime. As in there was a tangible reduction in crime during Hitler’s reign that can be attributed to his Gestapo methods.
