'The dictionary definition of fascism': Conservative columnist condemns Donald Trump's MAGA 'cult'

[surada]

They both also used microphones. Don't forget that similarity. There's another US president who put himself in front of a red background and waved his fists around while shouting about his enemies. He looked a lot like Hitler too. Were you going to mention that one?

Folks, the wait was worth it: Donald Trump is going to prison

Trump can't come back from this: He will never be president again, and may well die in prison. The future awaits

You'll notice Trump calls everyone socialists, Marxists and Communists. Hitler did the same thing.

Well actually neither calls "everyone" that....with that said, Hitler certainly was no fan of Communist, and saw the failures of Socialism...but was very anti-capitalist...and was very much against the market economy, and wanted a planned economy

Much like we see from demafascist today in this country

We know, however, that Hitler did not proceed against the right in the same way as he did against the left. Some dedicated monarchists were also delivered into the concentration camps, and some conservative bourgeois forces, such as Herbert von Bose and Edgar Julius Jung, both associates of Franz von Papen, Vice Chancellor of Germany under Adolf Hitler from 1933 to 1934, were shot just like the leaders of the SA, the NSDAP Storm Troopers, on 30 June 1934. On balance, however, it is incontestable that the Communists and the Social Democrats had to bear the greater sacrifices.
This has nothing to do with Hitler's preference for the right, however – quite the opposite. He regarded the right-wing and bourgeois forces as being cowardly, weak, without energy and incapable of any resistance, whereas he assumed the left to have the brave, courageous, determined and therefore dangerous forces (see Zitelmann, 2022, pp. 183–312). And for him these were more appealing than the conservative elements he despised and basically no longer took seriously as opponents.

This ideologically mistaken assessment was to avenge itself, however, because it was not the Communists who became a danger for him. He had won over many of them, who had become fervent adherents of National Socialism. Others offered resistance, but they never posed a threat to Hitler's rule. The actual dangers came from conservative men such as Carl Friedrich Goerdeler, from Ulrich von Hassell and Johannes Popitz, who can only be described as extreme reactionaries, and from monarchists like Hans Oster and Wilhelm Canaris (Hoffmann, 1974). At least from 1938 onwards, these forces engaged in a systematic conspiracy and opposition, which was not at all doomed to failure from the beginning.
.....
The German pattern of socialism (Zwangswirtschaft) is characterized by the fact that it maintains, although only nominally, some institutions of capitalism. Labor is, of course, no longer a ‘commodity’; the labor market has been solemnly abolished; the government fixes wage rates and assigns every worker the place where he must work. Private ownership has been nominally untouched. In fact, however, the former entrepreneurs have been reduced to the status of shop managers (Betriebsführer). The government tells them what and how to produce, at what prices and from whom to buy, at what prices and to whom to sell. Business may remonstrate against inexpedient injunctions, but the final decision rests with the authorities. … Market exchange and entrepreneurship are thus only a sham. The government, not the consumers' demands, directs production; the government, not the market, fixes every individual's income and expenditure. This is socialism with the outward appearance of capitalism – all-round planning and total control of all economic activities by the government. Some of the labels of capitalistic market economy are retained, but they signify something entirely different from what they mean in a genuine market economy.

----sounds like a Demafascsist utopia

Jones didnt personally kill anyone. He had his goons kill the people at the airport then the people voluntarily drank the kool-aid.

TRUMP! hasn't even done that.

 

[john doe 101]

TRUMP! hasn't even done that.

I didnt say he did you dumb hillbilly.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

The Bulwark is not a conservative website....the Bulwark is a bunch of grifters who hate Trump, but can't make a living selling Trump hate to conservatives, so they jumped in with the left wing democrats.......

Saletan is obviously an idiot.....promoting the lie that the riot on Jan. 6 was an insurrection........

Conservatism is fundamentally fascist, illiberal, anti-democratic, and authoritarian.

Trump doesn't do that, shit for brains. Every Democrat is a Marxist.

 

[bripat9643]

You implied it, dumbass.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

They were actually leftist tyrants....like Xiden and the modern Demafascist party.

They believed in censorship...they established govt "truth"agencies...like the Demafacist have attempted, they pick and chosed what businesses to support, and used them to their political advanatage...like Demafascist have done.

Wrong.

Fascism is on the right side of the political spectrum, the sole purview of conservatives.

 

[bripat9643]

I wouldn't say it's a form of socialism.....it's it's own thing....Mussolini created it as a "third way" = he was a life long socialist, that saw some of the failures in socialism, so he created it out of socialism, allowing for some private ownership, so long as their ownership was only done to advance the party....much like we see with the demafascsist here today

It's a form of socialism.

End of story.

 

[bripat9643]

Wrong. Fascism is on the left.

Hmmm, now if we could only remember who the president was that did that. I'm sure I saw a pic somewhere of him striking that famous pose with his bony, wrinkled fists in the air, mouth wide open in mid-screech, vacant eyes staring into the distance as he desperately tries to remember who he's yelling about. It's a classic and no one can miss the similarities when it's put next to the famous one of Hitler from one of his speeches. I'm sure somebody can tell us who. Can you, maybe? I mean, I know you tried to dodge it this time, but I'm sure you can figure it out if you just try.

 

[hadit]

Ain't too many hills 'round these parts, stranger. You could try goin' down that road there a piece, I hear tell they got some hills, maybe even some hill folk livin' up there. Now, do you want 3 threes and a six, 2 sixes and a three, or 5 three dollar bills for that there $15 bill you're trying to get change from?

Biden didn't call to suspend the constitution and overturn the election.

Hey! That's right, it WAS Quid Pro Joe who looked and sounded like Hitler. So glad you remembered. Of course, I don't remember Hitler doing the creepy whispering bit. What's that all about?

Never.

Oh, he did the whispering thing. Also the getting lost between Marine One and the White House, and shaking hands with a ghost things. He's a wild and crazy guy, that Quid Pro Joe!

Wrong.

maybe you should actually look up with Fascsim is and what it involves.

I think you mean Conservatives, which you are going to have to define for us here....in the United States that means a political ideological view that adheres to US Constitutional views, limited govt and capitalism....which is the opposite of Facism

 

[bripat9643]

Wrong.

Wrong. Left-wingers endorse every principle of fascist government and fascist economics.

Neither did Trump, asshole. However, Now Biden is suspending the Constitution. He's making free speech against the law.

No...it isn't....

You guys lie about this all the time....

Leftism is increasing levels of government.

Rightism is decreasing levels of government.
