“Do you have to keep nagging about extremism? Seriously, no one is saying they’re going to start concentration camps or anything!”
“Yeah, Hitler didn’t win the german election on a program of world war, holocaust and the total destruction of Germany… however, given that he ended up taking his life in a bunker, I’m going to say not even he knew the final result of his political agenda.”
