    Since this has been identified as misinformation by many people in the thread, please delete this post or update the title to reflect that.

    Edit: I am extremely confused about the downvotes, would love to discuss the reasoning for it with someone.

      Not misleading or false, and doesn’t say anywhere that it was said aloud but quoted. Making those words on your podium counts as quoting.

        What’s misleading is that the phrase was never used by Nazis, but the content of the post says it is. That’s both false and misleading

        The post says “today the Trump admin quoted the Nazi mass murder slogan”. The Trump admin did not quote a Nazi mass murder slogan. So, it’s misinformation.

            They did, yes. So if the post had said “Trump marketing reminiscent of Nazi mass murder policy”, it would have been correct.

            But it doesn’t - it used the word “slogan”, which implies it was a self-descriptor. The Nazis never used that phrase in reference to themselves, so the post is misleading.

            From the substack you linked:

            Historians note that while the exact wording “One of ours, all of yours” was not a verbatim Nazi slogan, it encapsulates a Nazi ethos[3]

            Again, I fully agree that that the phrase encapsulates Nazi policy quite well, I’m just disputing that it’s a “Nazi slogan”.

              And you’re wasting your time and effort spring hairs while ice murders citizens in the street. Of was nazi policy. Now it’s republican policy. Get some perspective, for goodness’ sake!
