The Political Party That’s Built On Lies

For decades the political left has called those on the political right fascists. Doing so is particularly de rigueur these days, with Joe Biden saying that Donald Trump supporters are semi-fascists, and then devoting an entire speech to trying to convince the nation that those who disagree with him and his party are threats to our republic. But it’s nothing more than another lie told to sustain the Democratic Party’s campaign to occupy America.

Democrats have been calling their political opponents fascists since at least 1948, when Harry Truman said a Republican election win would pose a fascistic threat to America, and be even more dangerous than communism.

Labeling Republicans as fascists is of course as absurd today as it was then. Fascists want to empower the state, trap a people within its confines, strip them of their individuality, and eliminate dissent. This describes the Democratic Party far more accurately than the Republican Party (which has rarely done enough to stop the Democrats’ assault on the Constitution, our institutions, and civilization in general).

The Democrats’ tower of lies has been constructed with the help of the media, which outside of a few exceptions, are no longer objective, or even pretend to be, and are instead propagandists for the party they are loyal to. In just the last six years the media have perpetuated the stolen-by-Russia 2016 presidential election lie, the Stacey Abrams I’m-the-real-governor-of-Georgia lie, and the lie that the incriminating information on Hunter Biden’s laptop was Russian disinformation.

The press also lies about policies, casting Democrats’ ideas in the best light possible, the Republicans’ policies in the worst. A recent and especially egregious example: Both the Democrats and the media have been calling Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law the Don’t Say Gay Bill, a gross and intentional mischaracterization

“Semi-fascism” is not a real thing. It is like being a “little bit” pregnant. You either are, or you are not.

Fascism itself is poorly understood by most people, who associate it with the National Socialism of the Third Reich.

Technically, there are differences. One is that under fascism, the industrial complex would be organized into “syndicates”, essentially cartels with exclusive right to exert authority over all aspects of a particular branch of industry, be it transportation, manufacture, construction of offices and residential complexes, educational facilities, power generation and distribution, retail operations or agricultural production. The government would be administered by a committee of the heads of these syndicates, and they would administer the duties of government, with no parliament or legislative body outside the committee, which elects its head spokesman, “Big Brother”.

National Socialism differs in that a sort of “elected” parliament still exists in form, but only one political party is allowed to exist. A sort of “crony capitalism” still exists, but the party gets to select the winners and losers, and no industry has much of a say in the decisions of the rubber-stamp legislature, all guidance and direction coming from Maximum Leader, similar to the “Big Brother” of fascism.

International Socialism, Communism, differs in that the state IS the owner of all forms of capital formation and distribution, with no interceding syndicates, cartels, or “crony capitalists”. There is a one-party parliament, with a supposedly elected chief and head of state, but in practice, it is pretty much an oligarchy rule, with a small band of the top oligarchs jockeying for power among themselves.

One characteristic binds all these different schemes, and that is all of them are a command-and-control regime, with one tyrant at the top, and the supporting lackeys and proxies who control the serfs, then at the bottom, the serfs themselves. None of them work without some form of military organization, with draconian enforcement, and strictly limited distribution to the serfs, with the lackeys and proxies getting a little more of the goods and services, the higher you go, the greater the distribution of those goods and services is made. There is a veiled threat that this largesse may be withdrawn at any time.

“Da Boss” of course, gets full enjoyment of every luxury available. Until he gets knocked off by a rival.

And since all forms of command-and-control regimes are fighting for the same target, control, they are often at each other’s throats. Wars and rumors of wars are their negotiation strategies.

And every one of them meets the definition of entropy. In any closed system, the amount of energy available all degrades to heat, and is never restored.

The most concentrated heat of all, is recognized as Hell.
