The left has embraced fascism in its purest form

[bripat9643]

I've forgotten more about free enterprise economics and political economy than you've ever known, Brian.

And you are acting like a statist fascist, you Trumptard rube!

How am I acting like a statist fascist?

I doubt you ever read a book on economics.

I'll start another thread on just how successful this was done and still may become a reality.

Fourteen Points of Fascism

1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism​

Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights​

Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of \u201cneed.\u201d The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause​

The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial, ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

4. Supremacy of the Military​

Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

5. Rampant Sexism​

The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy.

6. Controlled Mass Media​

Sometimes the media are directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media are indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

7. Obsession with National Security​

Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

8. Religion and Government are Intertwined​

Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.

9. Corporate Power is Protected​

The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

10. Labor Power is Suppressed​

Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.

11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts​

Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free _expression in the arts is openly attacked, and governments often refuse to fund the arts.

12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment​

Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations

13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption​

Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

14. Fraudulent Elections​

Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

You post the debunked 14 points of fascism. The guy who coined this stuff is a marketing executive living in Canada. quoting it proves you don't know what the hell you are talking about.

The left has embraced fascism in its purest form. Their entire mindset is: either bow to our ideology, or we will do everything in our power to destroy you. No tolerance for any thoughts or views other than the progressive thoughts and views.

27 Books That Would Make a Great Gift This Christmas

With Christmas just around the corner, here is a list of book recommendations that would make great gifts—curated by The Daily Signal.

www.dailysignal.com

You want to accuse the left of doing what you right wing fanatics are doing. It is fascist Republicans who are trying to destroy this country. They are assaulting our democracy. It is fascist Republicans who are afraid of black authors. Who are trying to censor what is taught to our children.

 

[busybee01]

Democrats love “vicious regimes” (Castro, Stalin, Venezuela, etc.) because they align with the left-wing ideology

Biden Talks Tough on Nicaragua, but Caves to Vicious Regime

Nicaragua's corrupt political leaders, Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo, have seized control of all aspects of the country's government.

www.dailysignal.com

It is Trump who loves right wing fascists. He praises murderers like Putin and calls them great men.

 

[busybee01]

Eugenics is a critical component of fascism. You must control the population, with a focus on eliminating “undesirables”. That’s why the left has such a deep commitment to killing innocent and defenseless babies.

Abortion Is About Our Core National Values

The Supreme Court will hear Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization about the Mississippi law that bans abortion after 15 weeks.

www.dailysignal.com

It is Republicans who have established undesirables. That includesa anyone who is not a white, male. A fetus is not a baby since it cannot exist outside of the womb.

 

[busybee01]

As I've explained to you several times already, you cannot have small, limited government fascism. That claim is so bizarre, so outrageous, and so hilarious, that nobody could believe it. Not even you.

Fascism is a form of totalitarianism. All of that shit is exclusively left-wing. Here is a simply (and accurate) chart to help you understand:

You people do not believe in limited government. You want big government as long as it does what you want it to do. You are fascists. Your political spectrum is totally off. The Nazis were right wing fascists. They are closer to where so-called conservatives are today. Thje left is far more tolerant than the right.

Drama queen.

...says the guy who hates everyone who doesn't believe the same as he does.

Oh, wait, hatred is good when it comes from your side, right?

Rubbish. The closest this country ever came to fascism was the election of trump. He wanted to destroy democracy and install himself forever. That's fascism boy. Get some facts.

If he had wanted to do it, he would have done it. You sound like a fuck’n Trump Derangement Syndrome lunatic with your easily disprovable false claims. This nation actually experienced fascism twice now:

1. Barack Obama - who weaponized government for his political agenda

2. Democrats allowed their version of the Nazi’s Brownshirts (ANTIFA) to literally overthrow local U.S. governments and setup “Autonomous Zones”

 

[P@triot]

You're free to engage in any paranoid hyperbole that pleases you.

I'm not required to play along, fortunately.

Bwahahaha!! Once again we see Mac1958 turn and run with his tail between his legs when conservatives step up and challenge him!

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a bigger intellectual coward. The thing about intellectual frauds, is that they know they are frauds.

 

[P@triot]

Libertarianism isn't right wing.

 

[P@triot]

Libertarianism isn't right wing.

You don’t even believe the nonsense you post

We can see you’re trolling, dumb ass. If you’re going to troll, you have to be more subtle.

ROFL! Republicans are trying to censor what children read? Every school censors what children read, moron. Huckleberry Finn is one of the most banned books in public schools. Blacks demand that it be banned because it has the 'N' word in it.

You're forgetting the reigns of FDR and Woodrow Wilson. The former sent 100,000 Americans of Japanese ancestry to concentration camps.

It is Republicans who have established undesirables. That includesa anyone who is not a white, male. A fetus is not a baby since it cannot exist outside of the womb.

What we want it do is stop meddling in everyone's life.

what have they destroyed, aside from a few windows in the capitol? Here's what Dims have destroyed:

I would suggest that you all read up on fascism, from several knowledgeable, reliable authors, before you post about it, because you apparently don't understand it.

I have. And Friedrich Hayek (who held 3 PhD’s) was thee authority on the subject. He wrote a book called “The Road to Serfdom”. I would tell you to read it, but the left is universally illiterate. However, here is an excerpt:

“fascism and communism are merely variants of the same totalitarianism which central control of all economic activity tends to produce, this has become almost a commonplace”

It is the exact same ideology. Totalitarian control of society. Which of course, is the polar opposite of right-wing extremism.

FDR Praised Mussolini And Loved Fascism

 

[P@triot]

It's you rubes who've embraced fascism by believing the Big Lie and wanting to overthrow the will of the American people!

Uh, conservatives have never “overthrown” anything. It was you assholes who literally overthrew various US sovereignty territories and setup “Autonomous Zones”.

Take a seat clown. You’ve exposed your own ignorance on that one and got owned.
