It is interesting how Zer0 has adopted the spiritual tone of a cult leader. He is appealing to a voter without religion who is hungry for spirituality even if that spirituality is a fraudulent manipulation. These are the same type of people that Jim Jones persuaded to take that trip to Jonestown, Guyana. These are the same New Age cultists, Marshall Appelwhite and Justin Spaid, who convinced their followers of Heaven’s Gate to take a walk down the Santa Monica Pier to catch a ride on the mother ship.
Zer0 also reminds us of the Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh who set up his commune in Wasco County, Oregon in the 1980s. This commune caused lots of trouble including, conspiracy to murder public officials; wiretapping within the commune; the attempted murder of Bhagwan’s personal physician; and a bioterrorist attack on the citizens of The Dalles, Oregon, using salmonella. It is interesting that such religious systems usually resort to the murder of their fellow human beings in an effort to maintain control when the economic system tanks.
To subjugate the individual as subservient to the state is one of the earmarks of fascism. It promotes the collective instead of freedom, and the state instead of the individual. In such a system the individual has no worth except for their use by the state. It is this prerogative of the state that has great peril for the individual who is vulnerable to the whims of an unbridled state. In 1941 Hitler's Ufa, the Nazi film agency used Liebeniener’s film Ich klage an! (I Accuse) to convince the German people that it was essential to eliminate “all worthless lives.” This euthanasia program was directed at handicapped and mentally ill children and adults. It is estimated that 70,000 German citizens were euthanized in mental institutions and killing centers.
One wonders what type of material perks Obama enjoys at the expense of his fellow human beings? I know that the Bhagwan enjoyed his 90 Rolls Royce's, extravagant clothes and hand made watches. It is claimed that Bhagwan consumed sixty milligrams of Valium daily and was addicted to Nitrous Oxide. This may explain his early death at 58.

Hitler and his cronies pounded these points incessantly in speech after speech. You know the fascist ideology well, jonrick. Good post. The evil of fascism and Marxism needs to exposed in every classroom in America but it isn’t for obvious reasons.
