No Hitler references to any Democratic candidate nor supporters of that candidate should ever be posted on DU. This should have been hidden, and the OP should strongly consider self-deleting it. It serves no purpose and is insulting to U.S. politics and voters.

That's my opinion.

I had serious reservations about posting it due to the Hitler reference. But it has become a popular meme used by both sides as well as others. There was no intention on my part (nor the creators part) to insinuate that either candidate is comparable to Hitler.

It was levity, designed to bring a bit of humor to this forum, which, quite frankly, could use some.

I'm hoping that we'll get one about Hillary's supporters as well.

Have a great day.

Its an old meme actually but its so funny in many situations so it never goes away.

Associating any Democratic candidate or supporters with Hitler is, to me, reprehensible. I'm a Clinton-supporter, but Bernie Sanders is a candidate of our party for President.

Sorry, but I can't agree with any use of Hitler in that way. It is offensive to me.

It's primary season. We support different Democratic candidates. That's all.

This Hitler nonsense represents the coarsening of our political dialog. It goes beyond what is acceptable to me.

Yeah I'm sure "humor" like that would go over big if posted as an OP.

or Eva Peron carrying on a corrupt husband's legacy.


But compare Sanders to Hitler and his supporters to Nazis? Hey you guys are a laugh a minute.

I can appreciate good satire about Sanders, me and other supporters.

But when it gets into Hitler and Nazis I draw the line. Any Clinton supporter with an ounce of taste and decency should not be fiving that with LOL's.

I have seen so many offensive memes and total lies posted here, and rarely see people jumping in to correct the record.... anyway. I am not going to get in the gutter just because everyone else does. You want to spew more sexist shit, you will find an excuse, I guess. Good riddance.

But LOL on comparisons to Hitler and Nazis?

Especially considering Sanders personal history. (A first generation jew who lost many of his relatives in the holocaust.)

I would have not posted that, but the over the top OP -- and the har-de-har reaction, is offensive and prompted an offensive response.

and he liked Hogan's Heros, while his brother who saw no action in the Navy, hated it. I am not going to judge that.
But yeah, it seems like you think sexist shit os okay for "reasons", and it just isn't. There are no reasons to be a sexist ass. Instead of learning from your fuck up before, you are obviously resentful and doubling down. Not a good thing.
