Hey at least they hit with the "you will regret this", so the receiver knows in advance there's not going to be an end to the words to come.

I've ironically and unironically sent this a few times.
In the mid aughts, as the US political train switched into overdrive towards fascism and autocracy (yes, the signs were evident even then) I did some deep dives on the holocaust, not just to acknowledge how bad it was (I did regret that) but also to understand the steps from just collect the undesirables and send them away to time to stuff the untermenschen into the giant execution machine and watch it go brrrrr
That way, when someone claimed it was inappropriate to compare what's happening in the US to the Holocaust, I could point out along the timeline where we recently were, and are now, and how the train is totally on schedule and we totally bought a ticket to ride.
It's not an eternal string of words, but it is a very grisly, ugly one.
So... I'm gonna do it:
Can you give a rough explanation of the steps, approximately from a few years ago, to the Absolute Execution Machine? What's left?
I'm fine with however long you feel like making it, and whether you feel like giving sources/good YouTubers instead/on top of your explanation, but if it's long, you could
enclose it in a spoiler,
like this one,
so that people can opt into it, you know
Thank you for sharing. Hope you have a good day.
