Interesting, thank you for this. It does seem like things have gotten worse now than in Weimar Germany, for the reasons you said, and also because such a large proportion of the population is now convinced that up is down and down is up. I doubt that a similar proportion of Germans back in the 1920's and 30's had gone so far off the deep end like this. The German churches and many other institutions back then hadn't become Woke, like they are now. Even a lot of the Communists of the time didn't approve of sexual deviance and mass immigration. But the seeds had been planted, like the Frankfurt School, and Hirschfeld.

Paul Gottfried wrote a good book called Antifascism: The Course of a Crusade. It relates to this because it tells how western governments and institutions after WWII eventually saw antifascism as their main purpose, instead of following their very limited responsibilities. Before WWII, fascism had a pretty definite meaning, but after the war, as we know, it became a term used against anyone with a different opinion. The traditional family was blamed for fascism and Nazism, with an influential book called The Authoritarian Personality. Patriotism, Christianity and wanting to stay with one's own people were condemned also. And so LGBTQ, globalism, mass immigration and other madnesses are supposed to protect us from ourselves.

Some think that Trump is the guy. This is ridiculous. Trump is the "Solution" in this Hegelian Dialectic. It won't be good.
