No we fucking don’t all have a nazi in us. We all have a thing (fear response) that nazis and other authoritarian propaganda love to take advantage of.
I know that the person who said this was trying to get that point across, but decided to go for shock value over clarity.
And you went for outrage over comprehension.
Except for the part where I clearly comprehended the message, sure.
My reading is that we all have the capacity for enabling authoritarianism if we’re not careful.
