How Hitler used hate to gain power and that its not worth it to fall for hate. Worth a watch, you can even do a movie night on it maybe, its scary.

Everytime I see someone posting this video, I watch it from beginning to end. All the way back to my days on Reddit. Too bad it did little good then, and unfortunately we are watching maga pull the same playbook and it's working.
