    There is no political idea that cannot be shown from positive side so that anyone would agree.

      I don’t believe this : show nazism so that anyone would agree !

      Most left-leaning ideologies can, but not all political ideas.

        “We should put our country and people of our nation first. Foreign corporations must adhere to our law or their local branches will be taken over by government. No foreign influence shall hold sway over our free and democratic elections, and thus we must put foreign-owned media under direct scrutiny to curb any misinformation and propaganda.”

        It starts like this. And honestly, I can ask AI to re-write this in incoherent deranged vocabulary to sound more like modern politicians.

        How do you think it rose to such prominence in the first place?

        Displaying naivety to this, suggests higher susceptibility to it.

        Ed Bernays’ “Crystallising Public Opinion” inspired Hitler and generations of advertisers alike.

          I think that’s intellectually dishonest actually.

          Nazism is only really appealing to people who are already predisposed to think along those sort of lines. I.e. hard right wing voters.

          I find it hard to imagine that you could convince a tree hugging hippie of the benefits of Nazism let alone joe public off the street.
