Of course it’s not a 1:1. It’s a counter to people thinking that the holocaust started five minutes after Hitler was in office.
Things take time, even horribly atrocities.
And saying “So far people haven’t been gassed, so it’s not an issue and the comparison to Hitler is invalid” doesn’t really make much sense if you take into consideration how long it took for the Nazis to get to the point of Holocaust and WW2.
Oh, sorry, we’re saying the same thing, I misunderstood your comment - I thought by “trump has only been in office six months” you were saying that was the equivalent of six years of the Nazis and that we should expect death camps in September.
Yeah, the schedule is not identical, he might be a few years ahead of schedule for the deportations, but then again his predecessors have already laid the groundwork for that.
But it’s not a specific schedule that he has to follow.
I just really don’t like the line of argument that comes up far to often that Trump can’t be the new Hitler because Trump hasn’t transformed the USA into 1945 Nazi Germany on the inauguration day. Neither did Hitler. It took him 5-6 years to start the holocaust and WW2, and even then the biggest atrocities still took a few more years on top of that.

No, you can compare it to Hitler.
But keep to the facts and don’t use a slippery slope fallacy.
“It will be as bad as the Holocaust” is still different from “It is as bad as the Holocaust”. One of them can be prevented.
