Yeah the Republicans want to drag me out into the street, murder me, and then drag my corpse through the town behind their Dodge Ram 1500 or Ford F150.
Democrats don't like that and would prefer Republicans not do it, but most of them won't do anything to stop it as long as they're not forced to watch it happen and can pretend it's not happening.
A real, but grotesque, difference.
It depends on how you count.
Germany went through a Communist revolution immediately after (and a little bit during) WW1. The Communists won and took over Germany, getting rid of the monarchy. The far right in Germany went fucking wild with rage, a level of anger that really has no parallel in the modern US, and "cleansed" Germany. The Weimar Republic was formed roughly in the wake of that.
But that wasn't the Nazis, though many of the people involved in that did go on to become Nazis.
The Nazis did sorta go after queer, and specifically transgender, people first. (And "degenerate art"!)
The Weimar Republic, for its many, many, many faults (seriously here it's hard to overstate) did grow out of a Communist revolution even if it betrayed that revolution. They were actually issuing permits for people to live their lives as a different gender, similar to our modern conception of getting your paperwork changed in the US. One of the first things the Nazis did when they took over was to strike those permits down. (Or simply prosecute the people who held them. Or simply straight up murder them.)
Studies of authoritarian personalities (specifically, authoritarian followers: the kind who show up to Trump's rallies to cheer, not Trump himself) show that there is probably a genetic component to this and dealing with these people is probably always going to be a struggle for humanity.
However: it's probably more that the tendency is genetic. Exposure to novelty and life experience (or generally: lack of those things) are big factors in terms of someone actually adopting these ideas
Unfortunately it's not a field that gets a huge amount of study.
Damn, that test line is stronger than the control.

AA: "No"
Repost to scare an economics 101 class.
Polling showed him beating Trump both times. In 2016 it showed him beating Trump but Clinton losing to Trump. It's not only speculation.
Imagine having the cops called on you for being a child predator when you're just animal control.
Counterpoint to the counterpoint: Youtube made $28 billion in revenue in 2021. Bandwidth and storage space are expensive but i can't believe they're that expensive. If they're not profitable then i have to assume that's a decision they're making.
I've been riding an old "premium" subscription from the introduction of Google Play Music (or whatever it was called) years ago when it was introduced, for like $3/month. Seemed like a reasonable deal to me.
They did just (finally) jack the price up on me, though, so as soon as i get some free time i'm canceling.
Google really is the king of "you don't REALLY mean 'no'. Try again."
Don't worry, it's Rand Paul. His vote falls squarely under "stopped clock" territory.
This is the most hollow pr stunt i've seen out of him yet.
