It’s been here for awhile now. They really truly don’t. That’s also what is frightening! If anyone hasn’t watched the film “Police State” yet, I highly recommend it. Should be able to find on Dinesh D’ Souza’s website

Even D'Souza says it's not completely here, but is definitely forming. It's long past time to stop it.
One of the most perceptive comments I've heard of late is, "People wonder how Germany fell to the Nazis. We're watching how it happened in real time," and people don't even realize it. That's the point.
The answer we should take away from this is that the population was sufficiently inured to dictatorial power, such that giving it over seemed like the right thing to do, and anyone opposing it was a threat to Germany.
Something that Glenn Beck was perceptive enough to talk about more than 10 years ago was that widespread nihilism in the culture was a key ingredient which allowed this to happen. He saw a worrying trend then that this was developing in our culture.
Historians who have reflected on the psychology of the German people at the time have said that inside, people were so uncertain about what was true, what mattered, that they were drawn like moths to a flame to people, Hitler in particular, who were infused with absolute certainty about their own rightness. A consequence of this with Hitler was that he always blamed others for what were really his own failings, even in private meetings, claiming that *they* were the ones who'd failed, or betrayed him.
