Notes -
I’m not sure who exactly would be doing it. I know there were influential families (the Fords, the Bushes) and titans of industry in the 30s and 40s that were fairly sympathetic to naziism. There was also a decent amount of contact between the OSS and German intelligence during the war. Allen Dulles, the later head of the CIA, was back-channeling with Heinrich Himmler to try and negotiate a separate peace between Nazi Germany and America so that the Nazi government could remain standing and be used by the west as a bulwark against Communism. Some Nazi intelligence divisions were basically rolled intact into the American intelligence apparatus after the war ended.
You could say that America resembles Weimar Germany just because there are certain characteristics that sick or declining societies all have, but some of it seems awfully specific.
So to me it looks like there was potentially a coordinated push to induce Weimar problems and then present Weimar solutions.
I agree with basically everything here, but my deduction is different.
There's strong signs that it's jews who are in charge of all this. Whoever is doing this is clearly powerful. The woke clearly hate everything they can relate to the holocaust, to the point that their hatred of nationalism led to an almost global consensus that borders are immoral. Whoever is behind this is also trying to destroy Christianity and its traditions. A lot of people who have warned against jews historically have been assassinated (e.g. JFK). The woke is also driven by the media - and jews are extremely over-represented in the media. If you've been on 4chan, you've seen the image I have in mind right now. It also happens that jews aren't at home in America, and they're therefore in a position in which they can harm America without harming themselves. Only globalists and those without strong roots can benefit from causing this much harm.
I've never been on 4chan, but even I know that a lot of users predicted our current events, warning that the jews would do these things. And historically, these issues have also been blamed on freemasons, FBI/NSA/CIA/GCHQ, "the system", satanism, feminism, communism, the illuminati, NWO, globalism and on elite families tied to banking (Goldman Sachs, the Rothschild family, Rockefellers, etc), and many other groups, and most of these claims aren't wrong, the question is just which group is in charge, if any.
While there might be some non-organic anti-semitism, the jews could be spreading that in order to legitimize their victimhood. And Trump said "America first", only to start sending billions of tax-dollars to Israel. Of course this results in a spike in anti-semitism, anything else would be strange. The reason that even Reddit has some anti-semitism is likely because jews overplayed their hand.
You know a lot of things, so you should have a clear picture, and yet you discard the most likely conclusion. Of course, you may have valid reasons for doing so. Have you heard the translated speeches of Hitler? They don't sound old, they contain things which are still relevant today, and Hitler blamed them on the jews. Given the jews strong representation in positions of power, and their high average IQs, I find it unlikely that there's somebody above the jews who is manipulating them.
You focus a lot on recent events, but most of these issues started decades ago.
