From a post by Madame Hoyt

In short, we and our children are being trained to be sheep and to respond automatically to words that strike an emotional chord. We are being set up to be played for suckers by anyone who wants to take up where the totalitarian movements of the 20th century left off.

The very tactics of those totalitarian movements—intimidation, demonization, and disregard of all rules in favor of politically defined results—have become hallmarks of political correctness today. Some people think political correctness is just silly. But many people thought Hitler was just silly before he took power and demonstrated how tragically mistaken they were. (CE, p 224)

Those two paragraphs say it all. The Left wants us to react with emotion, not intellect. They want us to follow blindly. The freedom to question and doubt is not to be allowed. March in lockstep, Comrade, of hie thee to the gulag.

And from her Bookface post on the matter:
Part of the issue with the lessons learned from WWII is that we (particularly the left) are 100% focused on preventing "Movie Nazis."

So, people keep thinking of the danger as racism or a focus on ethnicity, and ignoring the REAL similarities between say German Fascism and Soviet Communism (Note in the end, that discrimination thing comes in, because totalitarianism steam rolls over ALL differences.)

Truth is if you want to disarm the populace and silence unpopular opinions, you're on your way to hell in a hand basket.

If on top of that you think that everything wrong in history is the fault of a race and sex? No, it doesn't matter if the people you focus on tan or not. Hitler and you are brothers under the skin.
