What Comes After Nazi?
OK, someone in a closed forum raised this question, and I think it’s a good one. Now that the Progressive Left has decided that Donald Trump, anyone who voted for him, and indeed anyone who isn’t an Antifa-supporting, die-hard, super-woke social justice wanking progressive leftist is a Nazi… well… where do you go from there? Are there any more sharks to jump once you have said that someone who isn’t in lockstep with your hard left political convictions is the exact moral equivalent of someone who committed genocide against 6,000,000 European Jews and Roma. (Which is far fewer than the Soviet progressive leftists murdered, but that’s different because reasons.)
Seriously, OK progressive left, you say Donald Trump and anyone to the right of Liz Warren is a Nazi. OK, can you top that? Because the Nazi is going to get tired. You are going to need an epithet to hurl at your political opponents once the buzz of Nazi wears off. And it’s got to be an escalation. So, what is worse than Nazi?
Workshop this and then get back to me.

Democrat. “Democrat” is worse than Nazi.

Argh…! I’m so exhausted from all this excitement [ /sarcasm ]
It really doesn’t matter since the mad N. Korean Fat-boy is going to nuke us while we’re distracted by the eclipse. Or, the electrical power grid will cascade-fail as figurative and literal darkness descends on America.
I’m shutting down my PC and server tomorrow at Noon, and hoping I have enough ammunition. “The opera house is dark and full of cellos. “

Powering down electronics is a very good idea.
I think the next iteration will be “stupid booger faced Nazi”.
Middle school all over again.

Kurt Tucholsky wrote extensively during the Weimar Republic. He called every program he didn’t approve of “fascist”.
When real fascists showed up, he had no vocabulary left to hurl at them.

When everyone is a Nazi, no one is a Nazi.

What comes after Nazi?
Nazi is the limit of our hyperbolic understanding. Therefore, we need enhanced hyperbole so I guess Psychotropic Naziism is the next rung. However, these leftists have already demonstrated that they are at the Idi Amin and Pol Pot level of exaggeration.

Though I can predict human nature to a certain degree, one would have to be mentally lacking to understand the variables of the bipolar Left. I’m seeing Leftist hangers on Twitter still ranting about Russia Russia Russia with pink bubbles emerging from the corners of their mouths. So continued repetition, rocking back & forth seems to be their usual routine when not given fresh words for their #resistance. They have a vulgar-mouthed idiot as their DNC chairman with a short & squat rabid muslim black as his partner. I don’t see leadership. I don’t see charisma in their future, I don’t see a viable candidate in their future despite Kamala Dang hitting the streets in the Midwest as if she’s taking a listening tour or something.
They might be using the Nazi word for a very long time.

Let’s revitalize the old-fashioned trope, “Commie Pinko!…”
Though it’s not very emotionally-satisfying, …it feels like throwing marshmallows, or fluffy rice-balls.
“Running Dog!” takes too-long to explain.

According to their (the left’s) eyes, wouldn’t American be worse?

“Which is far fewer than the Soviet progressive leftists murdered, …”
Seriously, V the K; sigh.
