Nazis & Liberals

[Ravi]

Amazing that this thread is in education and history.

 

[AllieBaba]

It's about the parallels between nazism and liberalism, Ravi. Where else would it be, since the evidence is historical?

 

[ABikerSailor]

People also dress as Confederate soldiers. Doesn't in itself mean much other than that they're history buffs.

Really? What was the Confederate division of the Civil War that was responsible for genocide?

Oh wait........there isn't one.

But if there was, and some politician re-enacted that particular division's history and glorified it, I'd feel the same about them.

So you're cool with the whole slavery thing? And concentration camps?

Reading comprehension you simpleton.

You stated that it's just a historical re-enactment.

I then stated that a division is generally known by it's most famous member and for this particular division, their famous person is Mengele.

You brought up the point about it being like Civil war reenactments.

I then stated that if the Confederates had a division that was responsible for genocide, and a politician decided to dress up as a member of THAT PARTICULAR DIVISION, I would have as much distaste for the Civil War actor as I would for this SS douchebag. I also asked for you to name a Confederate or Union regiment that was SPECIFICALLY DESIGNATED for genocide, and then stated that you can't name one.

Why? Unlike (apparently) the GOP, I don't support Nazis, much less a member of the division of the Waffen SS that had Mengele (the Doctor of Death) as one of their most prominent members. Anyone that associates themselves with that kind of stuff is definitely distasteful to me. Especially when that particular division was responsible for quite a few atrocities.

THAT is why I'm against this GOP idiot.

The Waffen SS wasn't 'SPECIFICALLY DESIGNATED for genocide'.

That would be the SS-TV, which would be managed by the SS-VT.

Then came the SS-WV.

The regular Waffen SS (Armed Protection Squad) acted in a role more like our Army Rangers or Green berets- an elite military force.

To claim the Waffen SS ran the camps is like saying the US Military bombed Dresden and condemning the Marines for dropping the bombs.

Someone earlier complained about lack of accuracy?

First lesson about WWII: Hitler's hierarchy was extremely convoluted; he didn't trust any of his subordinates.

LIBERALS and NAZIS (Send this to your left wing acquaintances)

Interesting that Free Republic attributes that to the Nazi Party which didn't even come into being until the disenfranchisement by Hitler of the Weirmer Republic (the ruling German government in 1920) in 1933 at which time all of those "liberal" tenets listed above were trashed as the German economy, the media, and all cultural activities were brought under the NEW Nazi authority by making an individual's livelihood dependent upon his or her political loyalty. There's no doubt that Germany prior to 1933 was a Socialist state, so what is Free Republic's point? The Nazi party was NOT the same German Socialist Party, hard as you people try to prove they were.

LIBERALS and NAZIS (Send this to your left wing acquaintances)

And from the text itself:

"We demand ruthless battle against those who harm the common good by their activities. Persons committing base crimes against the People, usurers, profiteers, etc., are to be punished by death without regard of religion or race.
19. We demand the replacement of Roman Law, which serves a materialistic World Order, by German Law.
20. In order to make higher education—and thereby entry into leading positions—available to every able and industrious German, the State must provide a thorough restructuring of our entire public educational system. The courses of study at all educational institutions are to be adjusted to meet the requirements of practical life. Understanding of the concept of the State must be achieved through the schools (teaching of civics) at the earliest age at which it can be grasped. We demand the education at the public expense of specially gifted children of poor parents, without regard to the latter’s position or occupation.
21. The State must raise the level of national health by means of mother-and-child care, the banning of juvenile labor, achievement of physical fitness through legislation for compulsory gymnastics and sports, and maximum support for all organizations providing physical training for young people."

Kinda spooky, huh?

Don't you think it's rather odd that conservatives are perceived as:

Anti gay

Anti women's rights

Anti Atheist

Anti Black

Anti Muslim

Anti Hispanic

Anti education

Anti science

Seems more like Fascism than Fascism.

Naw. Perception and reality are two different things.

Democrats are anti-female...look how they act about Palin. Read Madeline's reams of posts about what a terrible human she is for being on the road instead of staying in her house with her child. See how democrats support governments and idealogies that result in genocides, terrorism, abduction, murder, oppression of females. Democrats were slave owners when we still had slaves, and fought a war to preserve their right to maintain slaves. Democrats purport that poor black people are too stupid to know what they're doing, or they would NEVER vote republican. Democrats suggest that the children of poor people are less intelligent, less valuable, and suspect when held against the children of their own class.

Democrats support the stifling of free speech for Christians, while pouring money into organizations which celebrate and encourage homosexuality, childhood promiscuity, and and Imam on every street corner.
So while you claim to perceive the right as something, as we all know, your perceptions have zero to do with reality.

You've been so thoroughly brainwashed, I'm outta here. That almost sounded like a Coulter rant.

 

[AllieBaba]

Yes, and the nonsensical inanity posted by the left doesn't show evidence of brainwashing.

As I said, I provided examples (which Coulter does too) and it makes the left choke on their tongues.

Good riddance.

While I see where you're coming from.... Can I just state - for the record - that linking either of our political parties to Nazism is distasteful. It serves no real purpose other than to score partisan points - and, in my opinion, we should not link our parties to a regime that murdered millions of people.

its ok hon... say what you really think...

it's freaking p'nuts!
