Least we forget, March 1933: The Enabling Act becomes law in Germany

They did the same thing as the dysfunctional Weimar government, but were vilified for it.

The ideology is virtually impossible to separate from harmful ethnic and racial discrimination of a kind conservatives would readily condemn in other contexts.

Like socialism, with which it has important similarities, nationalism encourages harmful government control over the economy. Nationalism also poses a threat to democratic institutions. Finally, nationalist ideology is at odds with America’s foundational principles, which are based on universal natural rights, not ethnic particularism.

In crucial ways, nationalism is just socialism with different flags and more ethnic chauvinism. All Americans, but especially traditional conservatives, classical liberals, and libertarians, should recognize nationalism’s dangers and recommit instead to the core principles of our founding.
 
I already know what it means. Answer the question.

You're not thinking.

The Dangers of Nationalism.


Excerpt.

One of the great failures of these and other definitions of nationalism is that they are purely theoretical, and bear almost no relationship to how nationalism actually exists.

Nationalists in the real world know what they’ve signed up for; intellectuals who argue otherwise are fooling themselves. Real‐world nationalism is a primitive, statist, protectionist, anti‐capitalist, xenophobic, and often ethnocentric proto‐ideology of “my tribe best, your tribe bad,” with the tribe lying at the core. Indeed, the Latin root of the word “nationalism” — natio — means “a race of people,” or “tribe.” This is how nationalism is understood in Europe and the rest of the world, and why most Americans recoil from it, preferring instead to think of nationalism as a form of “super patriotism” or assume that the terms “nation” and “country” are synonyms.

At root, nationalism is an ideology of group rights that denigrates individualism in favor of an abstraction called “the nation.” Its foundational principle is that government exists primarily to protect the culture and interests of the nation, or its dominant group.

This implies that government can use its authority to protect the national culture against potential dangers — including other domestic groups and the potential spread of their cultures. To promote the dominant group, government must have the power to act assertively on its behalf, which necessarily means constraining others.
 
In March of 1933, the Enabling act was passed in soon to be NAZI Germany, Give the Chief Executive the power to enforce his own laws without checks and balances.

6 Months later Germany was a one party nation.

And you know what happened after that.

The so-called supreme court has just started us down the same path.

Is the world ready for the next Reich?

Rubber room material.
 
Yeah we do....You're a fucking loony leftist moonbat, who is desperately trying to pass himself off as a "pragmatic centrist".
I won't ask for a list of all my loony leftist moonbat issue & policy positions, 'cuz we both know you can't do it 'n stuff!

But that's okay, slugger, you're really awesome! You're the best!

In April 1933 from Madison Square Garden Samuel Untermyer declared war on all things German.

In 1939 the American Bund met at Madison Square Garden in support of Hitler. Trump's father was in attendance.

~~~~~~
The same people attending the rally at Madison Square Garden were Democrats and some KKK followers.
Thankfully it took the N.Y., Mafia to break them up.

While Democrat Neo-Marxists insist they must save Democracy by desytoying it.

You're gonna have to explain how the SCOTUS decisions, which return power to Congress that they handed over to the Executive, is in any way, shape, or form similar to the Enabling Act.
 
Wasn’t nationalist as much as it was fascism.

Washington and Jefferson were nationalist for example, their ideas help bring about freedom to many nations. It’s leftist fascist and bigots that lead to death and poverty
Prior to fascism there weren't any wars? Fascinating. Tell me more.

You are nothing but a stone cold gutless liar. The USSC decision is far removed from any kind of asshole comparison you try and make with that part of German history.
