One of my pet peeves too.
Easily the most impression propaganda feat in the 20th century was somehow convincing most people that the “National Socialist Party” wasn’t socialist.
It’s truly impressive gaslighting.
There is an argument to be made that placing conservatives on “the right” is a bigger problem than placing Nazis on “the right”.
The big government spectrum has no room for limited government types.
“Fascist!” is the name-calling of the Communist. It always has been.
All AI does is take all the garbage that’s spread out over the internet and spit out a conclusion. It’s basically programmed what it’s told. It’s the same as programming kids in a classroom.
There is little difference between communism and fascism. The right wing believes in limited government—the opposite of fascism.
“Easily the most impression propaganda feat in the 20th century”
yeah but, the truly best propaganda move . . .
The Devil convincing folks he doesn’t exist.
Peace to you my friend.
“Bundle of Sticks” (collectivism, not individualism) was Mussolini’s nickname for Fascism.
“The fasces symbolism with the inclusion of just a single-headed ax, with the blade exposed from the twigs or rods, was also developed in Republican Rome. The ax signified that the magistrate’s executive authority included capital punishment.
This fasces symbol has survived the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire to become the representation of governmental power that we see today.”
That has nothing to do with Capitalism, which puts the individual at the top, not the collective (bundle of sticks).
The left successfully conflated “fascism” with “racism,” which was the actual moral failing of German fascism. Mussolini had a Jewish mistress, and his regime was tolerant of Jews until he was forced to join Hitler in WWII.
Socialism, Fascism, Communism ... the leftist parade.
The big lies like this are the favorite tools of the enemies of freedom.
Right-wingers believe in individual freedoms.
Left-wingers believe in the supremacy of the state.
It’s obvious that fascism is a left-wing ideology.
But, wait. The fascists of the 1930s had fancy military uniforms.
So now I don’t know what to think.
