Take what you will from it, but if the purging of opposition political groups and mass control of media sources (through shadow corporate ownership and willing partners) from 1930s Germany doesn't sound like what is happening in America today, I am not sure what to tell you. I maintain a neutral political mindset, but the failure to reflect on world history to give context to modern day events is a tragedy waiting to happen.
There are plenty of opposition political voices. We are very far from 1930’s Germany and this kind of comparison just weakens any argument for a reasoned discussion about what is going on with social media companies blocking specific groups. There has been one very clear parallel to 1930’s Germany for the last 4 years, seems to me you are completely missing it.
