Considering how so many of them are coast states, I think Global Warming got that covered.

"North America" is the name of the continent. It can stay.

Ah, yes. Science. That thing where going back in time to kill the scientist who discovered something guarantees that no one else will ever think of the same concept.

Ah, yes. A private method for working on a public field.

I asked my house cat. He said he can beat them both.

He didn't think of them as people, so it all checks out.

Some generalization is always required when drawing equivalences, but if you generalize too much your logic becomes circular. For example - let's overgeneralize to the max:

• We determine that what the Trump administration did was bad because it's similar to what the Nazi regime did.
• We determine that what the Trump administration did was similar to what the Nazi regime did because both things were bad.

Of course, I'm not claiming that you took it that far. Instead of going all the way to "evil", you've only generalized up to "grabbing power":

• We determine that the Trump administration is grabbing power because it does something similar to what the Nazi regime did.
• We determine that the Trump administration something similar to what the Nazi regime did because they were both power-grabbing moves.

Now, this version does require some non-circular arguing - showing that DOGE's project cuts are actually power-grabbing moves in disguise. But there are two problems with it:

1. Power-grabbing is not a Nazi-specific thing - many groups have seized political power during the course of history. And not all these groups were evil - at this level of generalization, one could argue that democratic revolutions took power from monarchs and had to convert the institutions to be democratic. And even among the evil movements that did this - the Nazi were uniquely evil, because of other things they did.

2. You were trying to masquerade this generalized argument as a more specific argument:

   Is this how nazi Germany started? Cutting all “unnecessary” projects and personnel then introducing “necessary” projects and personnel that they control…

   This is a very specific argument - "here is a specific tactic the Nazis used to grab power, and the Trump administration uses the same tactic!". The logic here is not circular. The only problem with it is that it isn't true.

Comparison to Nazism is the nuclear weapon of debates. Trumps administration did some things that warrant an exemption from Godwin's law. Concentration camps for immigrants is one of them. Purging minorities from federal jobs is another. But this? The very fact they are trying to grab power? This does not justify a comparison to the Nazis.

What about it? I don't see anything there that's about "Cutting all “unnecessary” projects", and rather than "introducing “necessary” projects and personnel that they control" it looks like they directly took control on the existing ones.

The only thing that, if you squint hard enough, can remotely resemble cutoffs was the Law for the Restoration of a Professional Civil Service - which would be better equated to the DEI purge than to the cutoffs that this post is all about.

Did they? Do you have any sources? Because I did a quick search and couldn't find anything about it (though I'll admit I did not invest too much time into that search)

The Nazi regime did lots of shitty things over half a century ago. The Trump administration does lots of shitty things right now. There is an overlap - but this Venn diagram is not a circle.
