Godwin's Law Of Public Discourse

We know an argument has decayed
when those arguing for compassion
invoke the name of Adolf Hitler,
as if, bad as he was said to be,
even he would not do 
what the other side were arguing for. 

This is said in spite of how
Hitler's brand of Fascism
was fuelled by an infinite narcissism
which made it infinitely incompetent
which made it highly overconfident
and gave it little compassion
for anything other than its reputation,
which it barely recognised
amid the heightened propaganda.

'Godwin's Law', attributed to Mike Godwin
was a comment on the American media,
early on in it's new digital forms 
a mere four years after the requirement
of simple standards of objectivity
in analogue news reports and bulletins
was dropped by central government,
and the shock jocks started taking over.

Phrases like 'Hitler was a guy with some good policies
who was misunderstood' were their secret weapons
with which smear their opponents as 'worse than Nazis'
for their opponents 'terrible' ideas of enforceable equality.

Thirty years after this media hall of distorting mirrors
comes the final insult; praise for Hitler from Donald Trump
As a liberal who general resists crass comments
am  I allowed to say 'Hitler deserves better than that'?
