If people accuse you of being a nazi, you either are one or you associate with them

That being said, I wouldn't call present day Republicans nazis. That's a very specific brand. Wannabe fascists and totalitarians on the other hand, definitely. And not because of their stance on immigration.

Some definitely are fascists and totalitarians, like the ones who want to ban birth control. Christofascism isn't just a left-wing boogeyman. It's real. Some Christians are ironically very unchristian.
