   • 2020 November 19, Richard Weintraub, “Trump's use of 'Newspeak' to explain away virus puts Americans at risk | For What It's Worth”, in Pocono Record‎:

     It was reminiscent of the rallies held by Adolph Hitler during the 1930s-1940s before adoring crowds in Nazi Germany. At many of these Nazi rallies, the German participants swore personal allegiance to their nation’s leader-Adolph Hitler over and above their own Nation-Germany.

      • 1941, George Orwell, The Lion and the Unicorn, Pt. II:

        The British ruling class are fighting against Hitler, whom they have always regarded and whom some of them still regard as their protector against Bolshevism. That does not mean that they will deliberately sell out; but it does mean that at every decisive moment they are likely to falter, pull their punches, do the wrong thing. Until the Churchill Government called some sort of halt to the process, they have done the wrong thing with an unerring instinct ever since 1931.

      • 1977, Peter Thomas Geach, Providence and Evil‎, page 41:

        ...the description we give of God’s knowledge concerning Hitler has to be different after Hitler’s death; it is manifest that there has been a change on Hitler’s side, and that this, in view of the logic of omniscience, makes a difference to what we can truly say about God’s knowledge; it is not manifest that there must have been a real change of mind on God's side. And Aquinas can say this...

      • 1994, Karen A. Rasler, William R. Thompson, The great powers and global struggle, 1490-1990‎:
