Asked if she would continue comparisons of the National Social Workers Party–also known as Nazis–to Democrats following her tour of the Holocaust Museum, Marjorie Taylor Greene demonstrated once again that you cannot penetrate concrete with information.
Ben Jacobs of the Guardian asked Greene, “After your visit to the Holocaust museum today, earlier during recess you compared Democrats to the National Socialist [Workers’] Party. Is that something you still stand by after you reflected on everything that the Nazi Party did?” Greene’s response was less than informed:
You know, socialism is extreme dangerous and so is communism. And anytime a government moves into policies where there is more control and there is [sic] freedoms taken away, yes, that is a danger for everyone. And I think it is something that we should all be wary of. Anytime you have things like censorship and social media. Anytime where we have things being taught where one race is being told it is racist like critical race theory, those are problems. There are things we are seeing and policies coming out of the Democratic Party that I think are dangerous for everyone and that’s why I’m against them and I’ll never stop saying I’m very much on track and never stop saying that we have to save America and stop socialism. There is no veteran that signed up to serve in the military and there’s nobody that fought for our country because they wanted America to be a socialist country. They all did it because they wanted America to be a free country.
Jacobs again asked if she stood by her analogy, to which Greene replied, “That’s the important thing to remember. Thank you guys so much. We got to head out to vote.”
As most educated people know, Nazis were not socialists in practice. They were fascists. They put the term “socialist” in their Party name to dupe undereducated workers in Germany into thinking they were socialists so they would get into power. The Nazis, in fact, would execute socialists and communists.
