Chuck Woolery: 'The Nazis Were Socialists. They Were Left'

CNS ^ | October 16, 2015 | Mark Judge

[Torcert]

"Nazi is described as a right wing organization, Yet their were Socialists [sic]. They were left. But Chuck. But My BUTT."

"National Socialist German Workers' Party. Nazi Party. Hitler. Need I go on?"

"Maybe better. Democrats don't value the country. They value the power of Government. There is a difference ya know."

"You want to know how much power our Government has over our lives? Just make the suggestion we shut it down. That's how much.LIBERTY we have."

"While European countries, one by one, are dying on the vine, Democrats insist we become more like them. Insane!"

[Torcert]

Finally people are being upfront and stating the bloody obvious: that a Socialist Worker’s party WAS a Socialist Worker’s party:

Nationalsozialistische [deutsche Arbeiter-Partei] (National Socialist [German Workers' Party]) The American Heritage® Abbreviations Dictionary, Third Edition

For those who would disagree with this and try to perpetuate one of the Democrat's biggest Lies there is the simply admonition from Carl Sagan that: “Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.”

This means some OTHER than the 'North Korea' or the 'propaganda' talking points.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

When it comes to economics, the Nazis were about as close to what Obama is doing today as any political party. Keep the means of production in private hands nominally, but have the government tell industry exactly what to do.

[Monterrosa-24]

This is great stuff from the guy whose most famous line is, “So how did the date turn out?...any romance?”

[skeeter]

Oh how I’d love to see someone whip this fact out on one of those Sunday talk shows, or better yet, a presidential debate.

And watch the “journalists” vapor lock.

[MUDDOG]

Democrats have expanded on the Nazis by going after all white people, not just Jews.

National Socialism was still socialism. It was not in a left-right struggle with the Soviet communists; they were competing brands of the same product.

What is Left? What is Right?

What Is Left? What Is Right? It is extremely unfortunate that the writers on political philosophy today have undertaken to measure various issues in terms of political parties instead of political power. No doubt the American Founding Fathers would have considered this modern measuring stick most objectionable, even meaningless.

Today, as we mentioned, it is popular in the classroom as well as the press to refer to "Communism on the left," and "Fascism on the right." People and parties are often called "Leftist," or "Rightist." The public do not really understand what they are talking about.

These terms actually refer to the manner in which the various parties are seated in the parliaments of Europe. The radical revolutionaries (usually the Communists) occupy the far left and the military dictatorships (such as the Fascists) are on the far right. Other parties are located in between.

Measuring people and issues in terms of political parties has turned out to be philosophically fallacious if not totally misleading. This is because the platforms or positions of political parties are often superficial and structured on shifting sand. The platform of a political party of one generation can hardly be recognized by the next. Furthermore, Communism and Fascism turned out to be different names for approximately the same thing ~ the police state. They are not opposite extremes but, for all practical purposes, are virtually identical.

The American Founding Fathers Used a More Accurate Yardstick

Government is defined in the dictionary as "a system of ruling or controlling," and therefore the American Founders measured political systems in terms of the amount of coercive power or systematic control which a particular system of government exercises over its people. In other words, the yardstick is not political parties, but political power.

Using this type of yardstick, the American Founders considered the two extremes to be anarchy on the one hand, and tyranny on the other. At the one extreme of anarchy there is no government, no law, no systematic control and no governmental power, while at the other extreme there is too much control, too much political oppression, too much government. Or, as the Founders called it, "tyranny."

The object of the Founders was to discover the "balanced center" between these two extremes. They recognized that under the chaotic confusion of anarchy there is "no law," whereas at the other extreme the law is totally dominated by the ruling power and is therefore "Ruler's Law." What they wanted to establish was a system of "People's Law," where the government is kept under the control of the people and political power is maintained at the balanced center with enough government to maintain security, justice, and good order, but not enough government to abuse the people.

[Torcert]

The bottom line is that the Government is in control.

That also falls in line with the definition of the word:
Definition of socialism
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole. policy or practice based on the political and economic theory of socialism.
(in Marxist theory) a transitional social state between the overthrow of capitalism and the realization of Communism.

'The Nazis Were Socialists. They Were Left'

[smartyaz]

[Torcert]

Those tweets disprove that assertion.

[Fiddlstix]

I have been trying to get this very point across to people for years!!!

“National Socialist German Workers’ Party. Nazi Party. Hitler. Need I go on?”

...

Yes, he should go on. Hitler put an end to the socialist, homosexual, and most violent wing of the NSDAP, in 1934.

[Torcert]

Yes, consider how they react when you try to have them differentiate the national Democratic party from national Socialist party.

[smartyaz]

[Torcert]

Exactly correct on both points

I asked many a leftist and they can’t seem to explain how the word ‘national’ has some unseen magical powers to wholly change the meaning of the word Socialist.

The Nazis also cooperated with the Soviets with the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact.. but leftists tend to forget that little snippet of history.
