because of their deep and abiding fear of the Evil Russian Backed KDP party (god damn, everything old really is new again)

You missed the moment where NSDAP and German communists kinda had intersecting constituencies, as in "angry young people with nothing good to do".

Many stormtroopers were members of both at different points of their, eh, path.

And then, what really kicked off martial law was the Reichstagg fire,

Which was almost certainly a false flag operation by Nazis.

Liberals, Conservatives, and Fascists all united under a single banner in their staunch hatred of German Communism.

Such parallels always suck. They didn't really have liberals in the Weimar republic. It was all conservatives, monarchists, nationalists, and some fishy social-democrats. And it was kinda authoritarian at every point.

This was decades after German military police and Freikorps paramilitary groups under Hindenburg crushed the Spartacus League during the 1919 strike wave. The leaders of the movement - Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Liebknecht, and Franz Mehring - were executed by the police and the organizations disbanded under threat of further imprisonment/execution.

Yep. You might consider that such a republic shouldn't be so readily compared to the US.

I'm not saying future is cool.

We got monarchists. We got nationalists. We got conservatives. And most USians hate communism as an internalized educational message become reflex. We are not that far apart chronologically, either.

And not to mention the bunds and many American industrialists were very horny for Hitler not all that long ago. Those families didn't go anywhere.

This may happen, but not the same way, all I can say.
