One more way to look like Stalinist Russia.
Maybe we can do it on May Day. Wuddayathink?
Or maybe dress up some place in Topeka to look like Pyongyang
And then guess who . . . . .

don't forget the election is on the 8th. Anyone who disagrees with the parade will be painted as Un American
Anyone who protests the parade, or the election will be run over by tanks

(6,398 posts)...granted they were at the conclusion of World Wars...Or the mobilization as they were being sent off.
What's important is the context. Sure a number of European nations have military parades, but its in context of major events. Bastille Day in France, the Great Patriotic War in Russia, etc. I could easily see one here in the USA on Veterans Day, but includes not just current military enlisted but former as well.
Likewise, in Nazi Germany, it was to stoke nationalist and imperial ambitions...not to commemorate a historical event.
In the case of Dump, I'm betting he's looking at the latter than the former.
