Hitler was adored by the Antisemite Henry Ford who used to send Hitler money on his birthday. Ford received the German Eagle from the Nazis for his support of the German National “Socialists”. Hitler's "Final Solution" was modeled on Andrew Jackson's genocide of the Native Americans and the America's 1930s eugenics program. Corporations like Standard Oil supplied the Luftwaffe oil additives to keep their planes ion the air; Ford and GM supplied military hardware to the Wehrmacht; and IBM supplied business machines to ensure the efficiency of the death camps. And this was mostly funded by Wall Street - bankers like Prescott Bush from Wall Street's Brown Brothers Harriman. Wall Street even owned the rail line going to Auschwitz. These US and European banking and corporate interests were also pushing for "Operation Barbarossa", which eventually transformed into Churchill's "Operation Unthinkable". And only 20 years previously, Britain, the US, Japan, and other imperialist nations had sent troops to Russia to fight with the White army against the Bolsheviks? So, saying Hitler taking over the "National 'Socialist' Workers Party" was anything more than a scam to take advantage of the large socialist following in Germany and gain votes is absurd. SO why do we have this recent push to label Hitler as a Socialist? This is just more propaganda and spin to conflate socialists and fascists, obfuscate the facts, and confuse the gullible. Recently in Australia a Synagogue was defaced with pro-Palestinian graffiti; and to complete the scam, Swastikas were included into the Anti-Semitic propaganda. Think about it! To understand this in depth, people should research the Haavara Agreement (but not from Wikipedia). Real fascism appears to be hiding in the intentions of Alice Weidel who self labels as "Far Right". Given that she is a member of the Friedrich A. von Hayek Society, this is not surprising. Yes, Hitler was born in Austria and he agreed with the principles of the Austrian school of economics (Neo-Liberalism); big surprise! Remember, it was the Neoliberal (Austrian) Milton Friedman (and James Buchanan) who Nixon sent to Argentina to rewrite the Chilean constitution for Pinochet to favor Wall Street and the Chilean elites. This was just after Nixon told Kissinger to "Make the Chilean economy Scream" and Salvador Allende was suicided. And Pinochet actually used German Nazis living in Argentina to implement his torture program on Chilean socialists and union leaders. Even after the Third Reich killed nearly a million citizens for their beliefs, most of whom were socialists and communists, some of the more gullible continue to believe Hitler was a "Socialist"?

Standard Rules of the US Senate (Senate Parliamentarian), Filibuster, the Progressive Caucus, Democratic Socialists of America, The Young Turks, the Democratic National Committee, the Republican National Committee, Superdelegates, Gerrymandering, Electoral College, Voter Suppression, Cancelling Voters from the Roll, Reducing the Number of Voting Stations (especially during a pandemic), Voting on a Work Day, Electronic Voting Machines with proprietary software, a Corrupt Media Propagandizing for the Plutocrats, etc. etc.
Do you actually believe all these bipartisan obstacles designed to muddy the waters and impede the will of the people occur by accident?

Jimmy, don’t get so upset. Screaming at morons isn’t going to improve their intellect. The idiots that don’t understand the Oligarch’s Republican-Democrat strategy of the lesser of two evils are always going to be there. Soon you are going to have to realize these rubes with drag you down with them like a drowning man. Do you really want to be dragged down helping some fool that curses you for your efforts? If you research the imposed cultural engineering that has taken place in the US since the end of WW2, you will soon learn why there are so many fools in the population. It has been engineered.
To appease your frustration, you should consider the wise words of George Carlin. Here is one of his quotes germane to your dilemma:
"The real owners are the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians, they're an irrelevancy. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the statehouses, the city halls. They've got the judges in their back pockets. And they own all the big media companies, so that they control just about all of the news and information you hear. They've got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying ¬ lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want; they want more for themselves and less for everybody else."
"But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they're getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago. “
"You know what they want? Obedient workers ¬ people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork but just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And, now, they're coming for your Social Security. They want your fucking retirement money. They want it back, so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all, sooner or later, because they own this fucking place. It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club."
And Jimmy, these days they don’t need people just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. They don’t need Main Street; most of the population is now obsolete. I wonder what George would say if he was still alive?

Much of the oligarchs' strategy you will find in Edward Bernay's book, "Propaganda" or even Chomsky's "Manufacturing Consent", but I have to question the real intent of the "Founding Fathers". Have you ever considered the Founding Fathers may have been a prelude to the Democratic Party; where they say and write one thing and enact the opposite. Where Jefferson's intent on paper appears to be vastly different to the life he lead. Remember, Jefferson had children to one of his teenage slaves (Mary Hemings) and then subjected his own children to slavery.
Wherever you look you see Hollywood at work; even state textbooks emulate this required narrative instead of the truth. At least in those early days they were honest about limited democracy where only property holders could vote. These days they have given everyone the potential of voting but this has been offset with a vast array of barriers. The final barrier being the Republicrats where both allowed parties are owned by the oligarchs. If you look at the origins of the first two colonies on the East Coast, they too were as a result of British oligarchs investing in a new land through the London Company. So, in a way, the origins of the US like any colonial settler nation, were based on theft and slaughter.
Why is it so many have trouble accepting the deception of man; why is it so many accept everything the state teaches without question; why is it so many accept what their favorite actor tell them on television or has trouble differentiating between Hollywood's history and fact? Even if you leave CNN playing in the background, most people will begin to accept the propaganda if the media keeps repeating the same lies again and again.
If you really want to understand the origins of the current wave of deception, might I suggest you read Princeton history professor Kevin Kruse's book, "One Nation Under God; How Corporate America Invented Christian America". If you don't wish to read, there are a few YouTube videos of Professor Kruse discussing the content of his book.
At the end of the day, there has been a considerable effort by the oligarchs to create a nation of selfish, ignorant, greedy, lazy, apathetic cowards. And much of the Western World is very similar to the US.

Jimmy, you are looking at this the way the average person on the street would; you are assuming the population remains growing at the same rate. You should be looking at this the way the plutocrats see "their" problem. Why would they want to spend a lot of money on infrastructure, solar and wind energy, electric cars, and so much more when the plutocrats see all this as irrelevant if much of the population ceases to exist? Remember, the plutocrats believe only in the individual; as Thatcher said, "There is no such thing as society". As far as the plutocrats are concerned there are too many people on the planet and they believe it is their job to do a little Malthusian depopulation. If you have ever studied Neoliberalism closely, you can see it is pure Darwinian Capitalist and eugenic by nature. The winners (criminals) take it all and there is nothing left for anyone else. Have you noticed not only is the wage growth stagnant, the average life expectancy is in decline and the closer you look at the lower end of the income and wealth spectrum, the more rapidly it is declining.
It appears the plutocrats are quite aware of Anthropogenic Climate Change and of the oncoming technology based shortage of jobs and resources for the current population of a dying planet. To me it appears the plutocrats intend for the majority to perish during this period of the sixth great (Anthropocene) extinction event. It could happen mostly undetected over a period of decades or it could all happen on a lazy Sunday afternoon with a limited nuclear war. So as you watch Wall Street absorb your retirement savings; as the plutocrats slowly remove Medicare and watch the "useless eaters" slowly die and then remove Medicaid and watch the Romney non-taxpayers slowly fade away with social security, the plutocrats will finally have the planet all to themselves. No wonder they are buying property in New Zealand. So how many people do the plutocrats believe should be on the planet? Maybe a visit to the Georgia Guidestones may give some insight into their intent.

@Derrick Blanton : Correct - Empire is one the Third Rail of American politics. I couldn't have said it better myself. Expose the crimes of the empire, their crimes against human rights, strategies of deception, or the atrocities of their military or one of their imperial agencies (e.g. CIA), and they will come after you with a vengeance.
Just ask Daniel Ellsberg, Edward Snowden, Julian Assange, John Kiriakou, Thomas Drake, William Binney, and the many that have suffered for exposing US empire. And having a Congressperson make an effort to visit one of the plutocrats' intended targets (Wesley Clark - "Seven Countries in Five Years"), and then talk against their propaganda narrative of lies, is the ultimate sin. It gives grist to those that are exposing the mill of empire and that cannot be tolerated. Any Congressperson who speaks the truth exposing the plutocrats will have no future in politics; just ask Cynthia McKinney.
As for plants within the system; I have my own suspicions. Mayor Pete - employed by McKinsey - need I say more.
As for AOC herself, I believe that she was supposed to happen, but unlike many (e.g. Obama), AOC is not an effective actor. She is obviously scamming the people and she knows she is scamming the people. Attempting to sell the people on the absurdity of not being taxed on loan forgiveness that is never going to happen makes that a little too obvious. She could have just said NO! to that request as stunts like this are making her political capital wear exceedingly thin; and maybe that's intentional - I don't know.
As for Trump; that was both intended and a mistake; it depends on where you are looking. The more radical plutocrats (e.g. Mercer, Adelson) appeared to have backed trump in 2016 while others (e.g. Silicon Valley) detested the idea. You know there was a battle going on because even the Austrian-Libertarian plutocrat Charles Koch called for a vote for Hillary. Compare that to the elections just passed where the plutocrats of the finance companies (e.g. Lloyd Blankfein) threatened to vote for Trump if Bernie ever became a threat.
Personally, I liked Trump for the disruption he bought to the political system. He continually said, "We should Take the Oil" exposing the empire. Even at his speech at CIA HQ, he said "We might get a second go at Iraqi Oil", that must have been embarrassing for those plutocrat minions. Trump wasn't the problem; he was just a petulant fool caught up in the plutocrats elaborate strategy and a perfect tool for the media to exploit the ignorance of the population. In my opinion, Trump would have been lucky to find his own way to the bathroom. Trump was just another puppet too confused by the political upheaval to be any real threat. The real threats in the Trump or any administration, are those who are working behind the scenes. Given that Trump had such trouble reading the multiple of Auto-cues placed in front of him, I doubt Trump was even sending his own tweets; they were too well structured.
