Viva la Reagan Revolucion!

i’ve been a lurker/FReeper for several years now. This has been one of the most cogent/thoughtful threads I can remember. The stated similarities between communism and facism are, in general, timely and precise. The idiots of antifa have no idea of what they profess. Brownshirts is brownshirts.
Viva la Reagan Revolucion!
“Under the German Nazis, Krupp continued on as long as he supported the regime.
Under communism, they would have taken Krupp, killed off its officers and took full control of the production. It is true Marxism.”
That’s why I think that the Nazi formula is more dangerous today. In fact I think a comparison to your Nazi/Krupp would be Socialist obama/Insurance Companies. So far, Americans have held that no way should the Government be in control of healthcare (communism). So instead, they take away our rights with Nazi-like obamacare.
See my tagline for a great booklet on FDR’s New Deal. Although FDR was for Communism - I think he tried dressing it up more as “National Socialism” - or NAZI philosophy.
Good post. It actually explains a lot about Marx.
Odd is it not, that those that have wrecked havoc on mankind often grew up in luxury as defined in that time.
I have a lot of papers that says I am an educated man. The best courses in education were learned on a drilling rig as a roughneck. I worked for stern but good men.
Their education levels were minimal. They wanted for me and the other young men that worked for them not to have to do what they did to provide for their families. They gave us jobs every summer when we were going to university. They worked us hard on the job. If we did not work properly and hard we were fired.
Those were damn good men. Some of them were WWII Vets. They knew what hard times were. I am most grateful to them.
Socialism is an old way of thinking indigenous to the old world and particularly Europe where Marxism was born.
Very good observation.
People like the ring leader for football protests at Mizzou, a couple of years ago come to mind. I think his name is Jonathan Butler. The disruptions started with this guy going on a hunger strike to make the school president resign. He seemed to be one of those po black folk, just trying to spotlight injustice. However, it turns out he is the son of a black railroad executive worth millions. Born with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Bill Ayers is another example.
Ayers grew up in Glen Ellyn, a suburb of Chicago, Illinois. His parents are Mary (née Andrew) and Thomas G. Ayers, who was later chairman and chief executive officer of Commonwealth Edison (1973 to 1980),[4] and for whom Northwestern's Thomas G. Ayers College of Commerce and Industry was named.[5][6] He attended public schools until his second year in high school, when he transferred to Lake Forest Academy, a small prep school.[7] Ayers earned a Bachelor of Arts in American Studies from the University of Michigan in 1968. (His father, mother and older brother had preceded him there.)
Spoiled rich kids who decided to throw a wrench in "the man's machine!"
How have any of these vermin (Marx, Jonathan, or Ayres) benefited the world?
These are only a few of a long list of truly evil people, whose desire is to subjugate others.....Hilary Clinton anyone!
Killing innocent people and silencing free speech are wrong under any label.
“Spoiled rich kids who decided to throw a wrench in “the man’s machine!”
They come from wealth but without moral standards. They want to be something but in the lap of luxury they know they are nothing. That is why they are attracted to violent Marxism. People such as Ayres after dedicating their life to this violent ideology come to a psychological cross road at which one must admit to ones self he is wrong. He or she must also realize that have created much harm to humanity.
At this point he or she must atone and realize their worth in life has been naught but destruction of man and woman.
It is a lot easier to not admit the inner failings and fallacies of ones philosophy even thought confronted with its total failure and evil that to continue the violence.
Once they atone they are nothing but criminals. They know this but they can not accept this thus they continue their violent revolution. To accept the error is to accept one is an evil and that is a rare occurrence.
Jane Fonda is example number one. Joan Baez is the exception. Baez was very “anti war” in the fashion of Jane Fonda during the Vietnam War. When Baez saw the evil post Vietnam War she changed. Her voice was then silenced by the left.
It started in 1917 with the Bolshevik Revolution. Nothing has changed.
We have had 100 years of Marxism. Hundreds of millions have died. Until Marxism dies many more hundreds of millions will die. Even if Marxism prevails over the world they will fight each other. They have in the past and they will in the future.
The Nazis were socialist Marxists. Russia was communist Marxists. Just two different flavors of the same ideology. In war those two inflicted the greatest number of killed against each other in history and that was good.
Marxism Kills!
Nor would Poles
I think it’s a subjective valuation
Unlike most posters here I do not see National Socilaism in the same leftist mold as Communism
Nor is that how we were taught political paradigms long ago when college professors were more conservative than liberal
Not at all
I find that a canard.
Both are not good systems of governance for folks accustomed to freedom
I propose a third way if given a choice
Franco’s Spain version of Caudillo facism would be my preferred route if i was forced to pick an authoritarian system
Or a simple monarchy.....
>> “anti-fascist” organization Antifa [is effectively fascist]
The Left working its wicked magic — deconstructing the ordinary language we rely on.
They both empower those in charge to destroy the lives of everyone that displeases them....what difference if you have your right arm and left leg cut off or vice-versa?
I have that shirt in red, without the text. I once encountered a guy wearing the similar Che shirt while waiting for some take out food. He had come in with a couple, a third wheel if you will, and was looking at his menu. This in the early 90s, soon after the fall of the USSR and the Berlin Wall.
My food came out, I took it, walked over to their table, pointed to our shirts, and said something like “I’ve got the Freedom version of your Communist shirt. Our side won! Have a great evening!”
He looked like a deer in the headlights, and his dinner companions were cracking up as I headed out for home with dinner. It was a wonderful moment.

in red.
Thanks
Is Communism Worse Than Nazism?
________________
There’s a difference?
I understand the philosophical differences.
But really?
They both turn into Leftist Totalitarian Fascism.
In the end there is no difference.
I always wanted to see a Che Shirt with the picture of him dead on the slab
China doesn’t have a socialized healthcare. They don’t have social security and government pensions too.
