…After the Fire Decree was issued, the police – now controlled by Hitler’s Nazi Party – made mass arrests of communists, including all of the communist Reichstag delegates. After the 5 March elections, the absence of the communists allowed the Nazi Party to expand their plurality in the Reichstag, greatly assisting the Nazi seizure of total power. WikipediaAn historic note: the German Communist Party was one of the largest political parties in the German parliament, if not the second largest. They all reject the ‘two-sideisms’ — a recognition at least that both sides, the right and the left, have committed political violence here. And in order to “justify” all of it, Trump & Co. rewrite our history and lie about Trump’s own role in stoking political violence — something he’s done ever since he emerged on the national political scene, ten years ago.
