    At the risk of invoking Godwin's law, those words could've came straight from the SDP the day after Hitler was made chancellor :

    On January 30, 1933, the day Hitler was appointed Chancellor, the KPD asked the Iron Front, the SPD, the general trade union association ADGB and their organisations, and the Reichsbanner Schwarz-Rot-Gold to declare a general strike against Hitler. The Iron Front declined, issued a call on February 2 to "all comrades of the Reichsbanner and the Iron Front", warning against participating in "wild actions organised by irresponsible people", and exhorted members to "turn all Iron Front events into powerful rallies for freedom".

      I haven't checked history since 1933, but I assume Hitler was voted out of power?

      The dirty secret of Nazi Germany is that they had the support of the liberals, both at home and abroad.

      Never forget this: Every liberal would be thrilled to live under Nazism, even if they don't realize it yet.
