Your last 'myth' is really bare bones (and also not really historical). You are absolutely right in that the legal standard is incitement to "imminent, lawless action"

But, when we're asking if President Trumps words rise to that standard what we have is a very fact based (as opposed to the general principle of law based) discussion as to whether his words meet the elements of the crime. And people can have differing opinions on whether those facts rise to the standard. As someone with absolutely no love of Trump I don't think his words are sufficient to prove beyond a reasonable doubt he intended them to cause lawless action. If he did intend it however it would probably count as an imminent, Trump knew and referenced that the crowd was marching to the Capitol right after his speech.

-Hitler was a THULEAN. This is a religion. It was this religion that allowed him to secure loans and assurances from outside Weimar.

-Nazis, like the Italians, used KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS extensively in the CENTRALIZATION of their SOCIALIZED economy. They seized the means of production just the same as every other socialist state, but didn't bother with the pretext of "worker owned" anything. I wonder who else has used KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS for the CENTRALIZATION of their economy.

-Nazis were unified by their NATION, not by their NATION'S HATRED. This is difficult for you to comprehend, because you hate your nation and don't believe its history was worth fighting for. Nazis came to power by pointing out Weimar that was infiltrated and subverted by individuals (largely Jewish and Freemasonic individuals) who had no stake in her welfare and success, and conspired to oppress and punish them. It was through leveraging love of a nation and a clear, coherent, comprehensible narrative against subversive groups operating within that nation which gave rise to Hitler.

Statements like "the nazis had nothing but anti-semitism uniting them" are as stupid as they are ahistorical. If you think the average nazi voter cared more about punishing Jews than restoring the glory of the Fatherland, then you are painfully oblivious to the conditions of the Weimar Republic, and how neatly our current conditions are coming to emulate them. I hope you wake up before history repeats itself.
