    “Like?”

    No. It absolutely is a cult.

    In the 1920’s, Hitler’s adoring fans behaved in much the same way, creating propaganda and art depicting him as a strong, self-sacrificing leader, a genius, and the country’s savior. Watch old footage of his adoring sycophants at his numerous rallies, and the parallels to Trump’s MAGA cult will be blatantly obvious.

    It’s a cult, and we’re probably about two weeks away from an attempt to shove through some kind of equivalent to the Enabling Act.

      After the war ended and Hitler killed himself, thousands of Germans also commited suicide, 7000 in Berlin alone. Definitely cult behaviour.
