Perhaps you could read some books and realize there is more to it than left vs right, terms that weren’t even used to describe political leanings until the 20th century. Before that it was used to describe who sat where in France before the revolution.
I’m not trying to insult, but what you are posting doesn’t match up with commonly used and generally accepted academic descriptors.
You put too much weight on academics. The only reason they denounced Hitler was because Eisenhower made his acts impossible to deny, but it was the academics who put the left into power which allowed the left to got on to murder 250 million people and enslave over a billion.
The academics lied about covid and they lied about the 20th century left.
Fascism is only communism dialed back to try and create wealth. China leans towards fascism and communism all the time, since its revolution, depending on what it needs to do to avoid total collapse. Do you see entire leadership changes in China when it moves away from communism and becomes fascist and then another mass leadership change when they move back towards communism?
Aw, poor baby.
You’re pissed because people are now waking up and realizing that there’s always been a certain group of people who have orchestrated wars, division, open borders, and corrupt monetary systems throughout the course of human history.
Wow, you are truly unrepentant!
I have never met someone who actually admired Hitler.
I thought we fixed that problem in 1945.
What the Hell are you blubbering about?
Where’s the praise or admiration of Hitler in my posts?
Germany got pulled into a war they were reluctant to fight in WWI, got screwed by a “treaty,” then decided to open up a can on the people who were looting their country.
Then the usurpers panicked and dragged the US into the fold.
That’s it, that’s the story.
Look at Europe NOW.
Who really won WWII?
“ Germany got pulled into a war they were reluctant to fight in WWI, got screwed by a “treaty,” then decided to open up a can on the people who were looting their country.”
So are “the people” the 6 million Jews they murdered?
So they were just tricked into starting two World Wars and brutally murdering millions?
Just wow ….
If any US World War II vets were still able, they take you outside and correct your thinking.
And yes I do know history.
The Allies did a poor job post WWI with Germany.
People were very angry about the waste of life and resources , and Germany was treated more harshly than they should have been.
The centralized Egyptian state was in its 14th dynasty and 1300 years into despotic god kings, when Joseph lived. Blaming Israelites for this is absurd
Agree that the Egyptian state had been around for over 1300 years before the Israelites arrived.
I have no clue as to property ownership except what was written in the bible. (Christians do not rewrite the text of the old testament like the muslims do.) It clearly shows that the egyptian people owned their property and themselves until a great famine forced them to sell both to Pharoah. These transactions were all credited to Joseph.
Genesis 47:12-21
International Standard Version
12 Joseph provided food for his father, his brothers, and all of his father’s household, proportionate to the number of young children.
The Famine Continues
13 Meanwhile, there continued to be no food throughout the land, because the famine remained very severe. As a result, both Egypt and Canaan languished under the effects of the famine. 14 So Joseph kept on accumulating all the money that was to be found throughout Egypt and Canaan in exchange for the grain that was being purchased. He stored the money in Pharaoh’s palace.
15 After all the money had been spent throughout Egypt and Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and demanded, “Give us food! Why should we die right in front of you? Our money is spent!”
16 “You can surrender your livestock,” Joseph replied. “I’ll feed them in exchange, since your money is gone.”
17 So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph traded food in exchange for horses, various flocks and herds, and donkeys. He fed them with food in exchange for their livestock during that year.
18 The following year, they came to him and reminded him, “We won’t hide from you, your Excellency, that we’ve spent all of our money, and that our livestock all belong to you. There’s nothing left to trade with you, your Excellency, except our bodies and our territories. 19 So why should we and our land die right in front of you? Buy us and our land in exchange for food, and we and our land will be slaves to Pharaoh. Give us seed, so we can survive and not die, and so the land won’t stay desolate.”
Pharaoh Gains Control of All of Egypt
20 So Joseph purchased all of the Egyptian territory for Pharaoh. Every Egyptian sold his field, because the famine’s effect was so severe. That’s how Pharaoh came to own the land. 21 Then Joseph transported the people to cities from one end of Egypt to the other.
Communism is the spirit of antichrist. Joseph had nothing to do with communism.
Agree communism is the spirit of the antichrist.
But in practice its just the reincarnation of the ancient pharoah of egypt. We know that from the funery pracices of the communists in russia from 1920-1990. they embalmed their leaders just like the egyptians did. They abolished all private property —just like the egyptians did when Joseph was second in command.
Maybe you interpret bible text differently.
The egptian enslavement to their pharoah was credited to joseph.

Yes, communism involves particular methods and practices. But there is one distinguishing factor separating that which is communist from that which is not.
If a given action does not come from the spirit of antichrist, then it is not of communism.
>>> Germany’s socialism at the time was contained within that country. If the people wanted it, who cares?
It wasn’t going to stay contained in Germany and it didn’t.
National Socialism wasn’t sustainable, otherwise they would have stopped after Sudetenland and the Anschluss.
They needed to dominate continental Europe and they needed Lebensraum, living space to the East which would be colonized by the ethnic Germans and the eastern Slavs would be slave laborers.
They needed to expand and pillage those lands in order to maintain their NS paradise for the German Volk.
