With the greatest respect, the analogy between Farage and Hitler is not a good one, and the analogy between Cameron and Hitler is ridiculous. Farage is a populist who wanted out of the EU, basta. He spent too much time kissing Putin's bum - that is my impression. Cameron was a moderate, without many very deep ideas at all, an admirer of Swedish social democracy (who isn't?) and hardly distinguishable from Ed Miliband.
I wasn’t equating Farage, Cameron and Hitler with each other at all.
I’m suggesting that I fell for populism, the end result of that populism isn’t what I’m talking about really, just the feeling of being tricked and that it happened to me: a person who was brought up to think critically.
I’m not special. Neither are you probably. That’s my point.
Not that Cameron is Hitler. That’s obviously not true. Cameron only killed 30,000~ people due to NHS cuts. Not systematic genocide. It’s not at all the same.
Well, now you are double-backing on yourself and trying to use sarcasm to suggest that Cameron really is like Hitler! This is silly. Any choice a politician makes "kills" people. Cameron "killed" x people by not making the NHS budget higher. Blair and Brown also "killed" y people by not making it higher still. Raise taxes? Businesses fail, owners kill themselves. Cut defence? You kill people because dictators start wars. Borrow too much, cause inflation? The poor are hit by lost spending power, some of them will die. Life is real, politics is serious, analogizing your opponents' policy choices to genocide is for tweens.
