The numerous  parallels between Nazi Germany and Trump’s America are frightening.  The assault on the press, the cult-like behavior of Trump supporters, the propaganda machine that includes state owned (Fox) news, use of the military to control citizens, state support of para-military vigilante groups, anti-communist fear mongering, and so on.  Even Trump’s narcissistic personality disorder invites comparisons to Hitler’s megalomania.  And now Trump’s ICE is engaging in the forced sterilization of brown and black women detained for deportation.  This is part of Trump’s program of racial purity. Witness his support for white supremacist groups, incitement of racial violence, refusal to condemn police brutality, disenfranchisement of Black voters, draconian immigration policies and bungling of the CoVID-19 epidemic that kills POC at a rate 5 times greater than whites.  But nothing tells us that we are on the cusp of a Nazi state as the forced sterilization of “undesirables”.
