You do realize that is no different than a Nazi referencing "the Jews" as a whole, right?

By your logic, I would be totally justified in assuming that your entire country and culture is represented by your ignorance here.

I didn't say "all Americans are Nazis". I said all Americans are responsible for what the Nazis do in their name. Just like all Germans were and to an extent still are held responsible for Hitler.

You said no such thing and you do realize I can read exactly what you wrote? "It's what the American people want" and "you'll get lumped in with the Nazis" is about as direct as it gets. So yeah, you called all Americans Nazis before you clarified with things you didn't actually say.

Edit: Assuming you are German, based on your previous posts, should I blame you for the recent rise of that German far-right party? Is it your fault that Elon is throwing his backing behind it? Should I start generalizing all Germans as Elon lovers now? No? I didn't think so.

It looks like your country is becoming a victim of the same nasty machine.
