One day all this shit is going to find its way into history books, and some kids are going to have to study it and probably get tested on it. I hope they see all the grown adults running a state/country as being as pathetic as it really is, and aspire to be better as a result. This is the only hope I have for the future.

If social media had existed in Nazi Germany, I'm convinced the Nazis would have done the same type of stupid shit. It seems to be baked into fascism.

No need to be convinced by some imaginary counterfactual - historians have already established that Hitler was incompetent, lazy, and his government did the same kind of stupid shit.

Hitler was incredibly lazy. According to his aide Fritz Wiedemann, even when he was in Berlin he wouldn't get out of bed until after 11 a.m., and wouldn't do much before lunch other than read what the newspapers had to say about him, the press cuttings being dutifully delivered to him by Dietrich.

I still prefer Hitler over Trump. Only because that guy is fucking dead.
