Indeed.  I find it interesting that people on this board who claim to be "tolerant" will so blithely toss around comparisons to Hitler and the Nazis.

The main difference I would see is that Berlusconi actually owns his friendly media, and that he is way, way smarter.

A populist with disdain for the flaws of the democratic process who is backed by a large scale media outlet.  Yes, that seems a more apt comparison.  I wonder why it is not used as much?


Quote:But a thread opened by an Austrian apparently is bound to turn to Hitler and Nazis.

Sincerely, don't blame yourself.  The resident far left posters consider a day wasted if they don't compare the right to the Nazis or Trump to Hitler.  Hell, even our resident faux intellectual professed his approval for such comparisons, because he feels they are apt.  And I wonder why we have not one conservative leaning person who posts in this subforum with any degree of regularity?
