Over and over....the indoctrinated just can't overcome the propaganda...this: while Communists were Leftwing, the really, really evil doctrine, Nazism, was Rightwing.
No, it wasn't. It was brithed from the same sourece as communism...Karl Marx.
It authorized slaughter and genocide...as Leftism does.
And dreamed of the very same end stage for society as all six Leftwing views do.
They weren't: both are Leftwing....as is Liberalism, Progressivism, Socialism and Fascism.
1. Where did they learn to fear truth? Liberals, indoctrinated in government schools, hearing nothing but propaganda, raised to worship Franklin Roosevelt, look at the truth as though it were toxic.
2. But....to be a Liberal in good standing, this is the prescribed response when the facts run counter to their worldview: become irate, and attack, attack, attack
These were the retorts of the indoctrinated in a recent thread:
Fascists hate Liberals, and visa versa.
similarities between post 911 Evangelical/Tea Party Republicans and Fascists.
LW being communist (not capitalist), RW being fascist (allied with corporations, capitalist) like Naziism.
The Nazis may have had some quasi-socialist policies, but they were not socialists.
The Nazis simply didn't have a strong economic ideology, in some ways they weren't even true fascists
capitalism thrived under the Nazis.
Hitler and his gang took over a party with Socialist in its name. But when he took over Germany and turned it into a fascist dictatorship, it was anything but socialist.
Clearly Liberals all, and based on their comments, it is difficult to determine whether they are more incensed, or more ignorant.
3. Here's the bottom line...and then I'll prove it: Hitler and the Nazis were Leftwing.
Here's the reason for the propaganda assault by Liberals:
Pre-WWII, Progressives, Liberals, Democrats, were hot to embrace communism, fascism, and the Nazis. In fact, FDR was a pal of Stalin, Mussolini, and Hitler. He used Mussolini as his model for the New Deal.
All six of these worldviews are based on the same, un-American view of individuals, individual rights and the final stage of social development.
All six are Leftwing...none are Rightwing.
4. "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,..."
Goldberg, Liberal Fascism
When one 'sibling' attacked another, June 21, 1941, FDR had to choose one over the other.

As I promised.....I will prove the above in this thread.
