It’s not just America where an increasingly desperate left throws charges of “Nazi” and “Hitler” against anyone who dares to dissent from the discredited social justice dogma. Over in the UK, former Labour Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer John McDonnell was busy comparing Farage to the Evil Toothbrush Mustached Austrian Man.
John McDonnell has likened Nigel Farage to Adolf Hitler and called Reform UK a “fascist organisation”.
The former shadow chancellor appeared to compare the Nazis’ attitude towards Jews to Reform’s view of asylum seekers, and labelled Mr Farage a “demagogue”.
Speaking at a fringe event at the Trades Union Congress (TUC) conference on Tuesday, the MP said: “Reform are a proto-fascist organisation. We’ve seen it in the ‘30s.
“What they do, they have a demagogue speaking for them, they target a particular group, in the thirties in Germany it would have been the Jews, here it is asylum seekers.
Why yes, there’s absolutely no difference between stripping native German Jews of their rights and then murdering them, and deporting hordes of unassimilated Muslim rape gangs (which had been imported against the wishes of citizens to help boost Labour’s electoral chances and kept in subsidized housing in preference over the natives) back to their own home countries. Clearly they’re absolutely the same thing.
But given that I have some familiarity with German politics in the 20s and 30s, and don’t remember the Weimer Republic importing unassimilated Muslim rape gangs into Germany, I can’t see any parallel with Farage wanting to deport unassimilated Muslim rape gangs back to their home countries and German National Socialist policy. Indeed, Germany was the home country of many Jews. And deportation was not the final solution Germany’s National Socialists had for German Jews.
Just as on this side of the pond, claiming someone is a “Nazi” for having the same beliefs as 85% of the population would seem to be self-defeating. No wonder Reform is polling 35%, making it far and away the most popular party in the UK.
Maybe Labour’s leaders are hoping that if they call Farage a Nazi enough, one unhinged member of their ever-dwindling pool of crazed social justice voters will find a way to assassinate Farage just like Charlie Kirk was assassinated. It being the UK, they’ll probably have to do it with a knife. At which point Labour will call for more knife control…
