Hitler in fact climbed over and assaulted, through the SA brownshirts (which he called the "Gymnastics and Sports Division" of the political party simultaneously called "socialist") the existing socialists and communists in order to get into power. And once there the first political prisoners, at Dachau ---- were the communists and socialists. And that's 1933, way before he got involved with Stalin.
Fun inconvenient facts.
Here's a fact: you're a moron.
You can't bare the truth: this ->
"American progressives, for the most part, did not disavow fascism until the horrors of the Nazi Holocaust became manifest during World War II.
After the war, those progressives who had praised Mussolini and Hitler in the 1920s and 1930s had no choice but to dissociate themselves from fascism.
“Accordingly,” writes Jonah Goldberg, “leftist intellectuals redefined fascism as 'right-wing' and projected their own sins onto conservatives, even as they continued to borrow heavily from fascist and pre-fascist thought.”
This progressive campaign to recast fascism as the "right-wing" antithesis of communism was aided by Joseph Stalin, ...."

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo you have no response.
Exactly. That's why I call 'em "fun inconvenient facts". Inconvenient for you; fun for me.

Sooooooooooooooooooooo you're actually reposting the lack of response, in hope that even more readers will notice the rhetorical vacuum.
Good plan.
"Can't bare the truth" huh? Nice touch. Yep, it's what I do around here ---- bare the truth, when y'all Revisionistas try to dress it up all different.
Communism, National Socialism, Liberalism, Progressivism.....all have a the central doctrine:
"....an all-encompassing state that centralizes power to perfect human nature...." Goldberg, LF
Did I mention that you're a moron?
Did I mention that your cherrypicked "source" Jonah Goldberg is a duplicitous hack? You know, like yourself?
Just to pick my favorite out of that laundry list --- Liberalism, about which it's obvious Goldberg and you know as much about as I know about the geology of Tasmania.... has nothing to do with "all-encompassing states"; in fact it's the ideological reverse, holding that power derives from the consent of the governed and that aside from basic infrastructural and security givens the State should just get the hell out of the way.
Apparently basic knowledge of basic political science isn't a requirement for getting a book published, any more than it is for starting an internet message board history revision thread.
