Counterpoint:

The nazis collapsed not because of foreign intervention but because their ideology held that they were all super special boys and everyone else on the planet was subhumans to be subjugated - same as this administration.

These guys are duck-ups and what they want to do is either pointless or harmful to themselves.

These fuck ups have palantir drones and flock cameras and we’ve already seen technology like sonic crowd disruption weapons and microwave attacks intercontintenally.

Nazis didn’t have any of that shit and hitler himself didn’t have access to 4000 satellites

Bullshit.

The downfall of the Nazis was because they attacked Russia but were in no way prepared for the Russian winter. Where many soldiers simply froze to death (one must not forget meth or Panzerschokolade). This means that soldiers who are overtired do not realize that when they are tired, the body no longer works at 100%, making it more susceptible to cold and producing less heat). This mass death from the cold gave the USSR the opportunity not to be overrun and to push back the Nazis. Had it not been for the winter, the USSR would have fallen. America would have had an enemy over a much larger area (this was all before the Americans were able to seize all the knowledge of the Germans), the Germans were already close to completing the atomic bomb... as well as stealth airplanes etc. Believe me, if so many had not frozen to death in the East (fortunately) it would all have ended very differently.

So you're saying that they believed themselves to be special boys and that the Russians were subhumans to be easily subjugated?

Thanks for opening my eyes!

I say that it was not the reason for the downfall of the Nazis. https://nationalinterest.org/blog/reboot/how-russian-winter-froze-hitlers-nazi-empire-its-tracks-190821 Education helps. I was in no way advocating it or anything else.

Exactly, they will bring themselves down through their own virtuosic incompetence.

They are too fucking ignorant of history to understand that by replacing experienced, intelligent leadership with loyalists who believe their own propaganda, is that they have given their opposition the gift of competence. Now the Resistance will have leadership that knows how to really wage war, as well as thousands of insider government workers who hate their stupid arrogant MAGA slavemasters, and will be willing moles, leakers, saboteurs, etc.
