A new Census Bureau report establishes that poverty increased over the course of the Biden administration. The data is yet another rebuke to the politicians and commentators who insisted economic conditions under Joe Biden were great.

What was it the German communists said about hitler?

I don't know where you're trying to go with this comment.

You complained people were down-voting something without knowing it was "left of Bernie". I pointed out it used Trump admin data, which is... not "left of Bernie" (and frankly not to be believed under any circumstance without validation).

“First Hitler, then us”, in answer to my comment.

Ignoring that we're way, way off track from my criticism of your initial comment, it looks like we're now into some random criticism of antifa being cooperative with Hitler?

That's the closest I can find to your "quote" (wiki gives it as "After Hitler, our turn!") Are you trying to do some kind of nihilistic "bOtH SIdEs" here, or am I missing your point?

If you're trying to say that even the supposedly more left of Bernie source is complicit, just say that instead of your random comments.
