The mayor of Oklahoma City is trying to turn the business owners into mask enforcers...

Set your clock by it..

No wonder they wanna delete history.. they don’t want ppl comparing 1930 Germany to 2020 USA

@curiosi You have a weird conception of Nazism if you compare it to having to put a cloth in front of your mouth, just saying.

@Elessar these people generally have no idea what they're talking about lol. Makes me wonder what their quality of education was

@deadgerbil The first time I was taught about Nazism and WW2 in general I was 13. The second (more thorough) time 18-19. If the programs are similar among mine and their countries, education is failing them at an alarming low age already.

@Elessar I learned about Nazism from people who had gone to fight it. They were my uncles and father in law. I also used to watch Winston Churchill on TV. He had a show that aired in Canada every Sunday. I would go to one of the vet's homes to watch it. They told me about the horrors they experienced as they waded ashore in the first wave on Juno Beach. Then they talked about the fight through Normandy, Belgium, Holland and Germany. They both were highly decorated. My father in law fought the Nazis in Ortona and was awarded a Military Cross for calling for friendly artillery to shell his own position because the position was being over run by Germans. A good friend of mine wasn't so lucky. He waded ashore on D Day too, or at least he tried too. He was barely out of the landing craft when a machine gun bullet ripped off half of his rib cage. He survived and lived the rest of his life with a steel plate in his chest. He re-enlisted in the army and fought in Korea. You may have heard of Kapyong. The Canadians held their position while every other allied force withdrew in the face of overwhelming Chinese onslaught. By the time they were finally relieved they had run out of ammunition and had resorted to throwing rocks to repel the Chinese. They found over 200 dead Chinese soldiers around the Canadian position. Totalitarianism was what they were fighting against and now silly leftists want to bring it back again.

@hippyjoe1955 You lost it at the last sentence, too bad you actually started well. Comparing having to wear a mask and Nazism/totalitarism is total nonsense.

@Elessar So you think the average German citizen didn't feel the social pressure to go along with the brown shirts?

@hippyjoe1955 You're comparing a military suit specific of a regime, to a personal protection device that is adopted worldwide to reduce the chance of infecting people with a potentially fatal disease.

I think the average citizen and not necessarily German would kick your ass for comparing living under Nazism to covering your filthy front hole.

Especially when actual nazis tend to side with the political group that opposes masks, lol

@Elessar I am comparing practices not some contorted ideology. If it walks like a duck and quacks like duck. Thus it was that the heroes in my family that went to fight in Europe didn't fight an ideology. They fought totalitarianism. Silly people like you can't seem to understand the totalitarian urge and try to ascribe it to this ideology or that ideology. The result is the same. One ideology blends with another.

@hippyjoe1955 You totally ignore what Nazism is. Having to temporarily wear a mask to reduce the effects of a pandemic is a thing, Nazism is a completely different matter. Your mental gymnastics is irrelevant to my point.

Waving a Nazi flag in 2020 means identifying with and agreeing with the core principles of totalitarianism, Nazism specifically.
