Controversial anti-Trump article under criticism/headline to scare the middle class.
According to Rashatoudi, Anne Applebaum, a member of the editorial board of the “Atlantic” magazine, was widely criticized after comparing former US President Donald Trump with dictators such as Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Benito Mussolini.
The article, which says that Trump borrows his literature from some infamous leaders of the 20th century, has been mocked online, especially by Trump supporters and political figures.
Some have drawn attention to Applebaum’s connections and his membership in the board of directors of the National Endowment for Democracy, an organization with similar activities to the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
Applebaum wrote that Trump uses words such as “vermin” to describe his opponents, and his references to “criminal illegal immigrants like animals” are a reflection of the literature that the mentioned dictators used to remove the face of “humanity” from humans. The title of this article “Trump talks like Hitler, Stalin and Mussolini” has caused a lot of controversy.
The Trump campaign, which is gradually preparing itself for the November 5 presidential election, called this article unimportant and described it as “fake news from a third-rate media”.
Glenn Greenwood, a media activist, wrote about the article, “When you spend eight years calling a person every bad name you can, including Hitler, and it doesn’t work, you decide to kill him all at once.” Call those names.” Elon Musk, the American billionaire and owner of the “X” social network, also mocked this article and wrote: I can’t stop laughing.
English conservative commentator and activist Ben Q also attacked this publication. They wrote, “I love the idea that the editors get together and think, let’s make a headline for Anne Appleboom’s article that will scare the middle-class voters!”
