The American right has lost its edge. You have let it slide,
becoming fat
lazy and stupid. A surly, bitter mob of
uneducated defeatists, belly button
gazers seeking an idealist
past, not a future.

Since Front Page Mag and World Net Daily have unanimously
condemned Bush as the worst President ever, while Obama has
presided over almost record growth (6%) since he became
President and started to repair the Bush / Republican train
wreck. Many now agree that Bush and his supporters should face
prison terms for sedition and trying to bring America to its
knees.

Fascism, Nazism and Conservatism

European fascism drew on existing anti-modernist conservatism,
and on the conservative reaction to communism and 19th-century
socialism. Conservative thinkers such as historian Oswald
Spengler provided much of the world view (Weltanschauung) of
the Nazi movement.

In Britain, the conservative Daily Mail enthusiastically backed
Sir Oswald Mosley's British Union of Fascists, and part of the
Conservative Party supported closer ties with Nazi Germany.
When defeat in World War II ideologically and historically
discredited fascism, almost all Western conservatives tried to
distance themselves from it. Nevertheless, many post-war
Western conservatives continued to admire the Franco regime in
Spain, clearly conservative but also fascist in origin. With
the end of the Franco regime and Portugal's Estado Novo in the
1970s, the relationship between conservatism and classical
European fascism was further weakened.

Militarism is perhaps the most striking similarity between
Fascism and contemporary American conservatism. Of course,
there are many liberals in America who support the military and
even call for increased military spending.

Even so, American liberals are traditionally more skeptical of
the military than American conservatives. It is often said that
Neoconservatives, like Hitler, see the military as a paradigm
for problem solving (even in situations that may render
militarism impractical or unethical).

The relationship of fascism to right-wing ideologies (including
some that are described as neo-fascist) is still an issue for
conservatives and their opponents. Especially in Germany, there
is a constant exchange of ideology and persons, between the
influential national-conservative movement, and self-identified
national-socialist groups. In Italy too, there is no clear line
between conservatives, and movements inspired by the Italian
Fascism of the 1920s to 1940s, including the Alleanza Nazionale
which is member of the governing coalition under premier Silvio
Berlusconi. Conservative attitudes to the 20th-century fascist
regimes are still an issue.

Like a typical leftist thug, you stole someone else's thoughts,
because you have none of your own.

European fascism is Socialism. Nothing less, nothing more. Just a
different color.

You are aware that the Nazi leadership defined themselves as
Socialists, right?

National Socialist German Workers' Party

Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei

Think that was just symantics?

Yes, the Nazis were socialists

"The thinking worker comes to Hitler"
Over and over again I find myself clarifying that fascism and Nazism
were sister movements to socialism and communism. This runs counter to
the cheap political trick where modern capitalist-loving right wing
movements are likened to Hitler and his followers. This is married to
the false belief that free market economic policies and racism are
intertwined, and therefore the Nazis must have loved capitalism
because they hated Jews so much.

This is complete nonsense.

The socialist roots of Nazism doesn't require any digging; it's right
there in the groups official title "The National Socialist German
Workers Party." Sometimes this is waved off by saying they were "right
wing socialists." As Jonah Goldberg wrote in Liberal Fascism, that
remark is justified by the warmongering nature of fascism, not by its
economic policies.

People make associations between the two by mistakenly projecting the
hawkish nature of modern American conservatives into the 1930's. They
do the same thing with the modern right wing tendencies of modern
white supremacists, but that's also a mistake.

I recently stumbled across an in-depth video on Netflix from
Philosophy Professor Stephen RC Hicks entitled "Nietzche and the
Nazis" which attempts to explain the intellectual beliefs and
philosophy of the Nazi party.

Hicks completely knocks it out of the park. He repeatedly highlights
the embrace of socialism and contempt of capitalism that swam through
the Third Reich and backs it up with specific quotations and excerpts.

There's been plenty of academic analyses that go into the collectivist
nature of Nazi Germany's policies, including Friedrich Hayek's The
Road to Serfdom, but Hicks presents something in a format that's easy
to digest by anyone.

He also drew attention to a pamphlet written by Joseph Goebbels, the
head propaganda minister. Here are some notable lines:

What does anti-Semitism have to do with socialism? I would put the
question this way: What does the Jew have to do with socialism?
Socialism has to do with labor. When did one ever see him working
instead of plundering, stealing and living from the sweat of others?
As socialists we are opponents of the Jews because we see in the
Hebrews the incarnation of capitalism, of the misuse of the nation’s
goods.

Combine that with

I can love Germany and hate capitalism. Not only can I, I must.
Only the annihilation of a system of exploitation carries with it the
core of the rebirth of our people.

It's pretty hard to see how anyone could read what the Nazis actually
wrote in their own propaganda and still insist that Nazism was some
sort of free market cult. If someone wants to write off this pamphlet
as some sort of fluke, then watch the major propaganda film Triumph of
the Will and fast forward to the scene 31 minutes in where workers
march like soldiers with shovels in the place of rifles.

It's unfortunate that the popular mindset overemphasizes racism as the
selling point of Nazism and fascism. Hicks does a great job of tapping
into that mindset and revealing how a philosophy that rejects
traditional morality was able to inspire people yearning for progress.
This brings about an uncomfortable idea about the future.

If younger generations fundamentally misunderstand the driving force
behind evil mindsets like Nazism, then they will be completely
vulnerable if it comes back again, striking not with mere hate but
with false promises of prosperity."

Facism IS Socialism. Just a different flavor. Like seagull shit.
Depends on what the bird has been eating.

So you Lefties are just different flavors of seagull shit.
This is aptly demonstrated by your attempt to troll. I restored the
original groups and removed the asshole troll attempt to send it off
to an entirely different set of groups.

Piss off, wanker.
