In the 1920s, a term was coined that is very appropriate for what is taking place in America today: red fascism. It was a term that likely originated with an Italian anarchist, Luigi Fabbri, who wrote in 1922 that “‘red fascists’ is the name that has recently been given to those Bolshevik communists who are most inclined to espouse fascism’s methods for use against their adversaries.” This description and behavior of course should not come as a surprise to anyone. Socialism is intrinsic to both communism and fascism, as both are movements of the left with a massive, oppressive, and powerful State central to achieving their goals. Consider where we are right now in this country: some people have said that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are the farthest left ticket ever run by the Democrat Party in this country’s history. That’s not quite correct. “Leftist” has lost some of its meaning because more traditional liberals are on the left. Harris and Walz are so far left they’re actually off the charts and into neo-Marxist territory. If for nothing else, their strong advocacy for the Green New Deal plants them firmly in that Marxism camp.
As I wrote in February of 2019:
The Green New Deal exposed [the] lies on that front. The underlying theme to the entire plan is coercion. It has to be. This Green New Deal cannot be achieved without embracing full-blown, coercive socialism.
How precisely would the United States get to ‘100 percent of the power demand . . . through clean, renewable, and zero-emission energy sources” in 10 years? Coercion. How do you pay for all of these ideas? Well you coerce people—and not just the despised “1 percent”—to hand over most of their income in taxes. How do you dictate all of the madness in regards to production and pollution are adhered to? Through coercion, naturally. There is another name for this kind of coercive socialism. It’s called Communism.’
Now tack on to this Kamala Harris’ beliefs in Medicare for All, mandatory and universal gun buybacks (a must for every true red fascist; can’t have the dirty little peasants resisting your ideas of progress by force), which all leads to Comrade Kamala’s newest commie proposal: price fixing on groceries to “fight” supposed corporate price gouging (damn them for their 1.2 percent profit margins). Mind you, none of that addresses the real rise in costs due to inflation caused by the Biden Administration’s pouring jet fuel on inflation with massive government spending, printing money up like it’s Monopoly money, and driving up fuel costs based on their belief in a hoax. But what price controls will do, as is evidenced by Maduro’s doing this in Venezuela, is lead to even more inflation (1300 percent for groceries in Venezuela), and then empty grocery shelves and breadlines because that’s what happens when you do such things. Just so we’re clear: there’s nothing joyful about starving.
Now on to the fascist elements of our American Neo-Marxists. For those a little fuzzy on the fascism side of things since the low IQ Left keeps throwing out the pejoratives of “Trump is Hitler!” And “MAGA is Nazis!” let me explain: fascism is all about all-encompassing, single-party state rule, about melding together the State (think big government) with big corporations (think Big Tech) to enforce the State’s narrative and to help firmly ensconce in power that single party and the wealthy elite (think Ruling Class).
The Democrat Party and the Administrative State have decided to absolutely annihilate, via corporations, your rights to free speech, and the free flow of information all while exposing you daily to the firehose of disinformation in support of the state and Ruling Class via the corporate propagandists and stenographers of the state who masquerade as “media” and “reporters.” Nor should we forget the fascist roots of the Progressive Statist movement that most Democrats identify with: Herbert Croly, one of the godfathers of the Progressive Statist movement, openly advocated for the nationalization of corporations.
If there was a silver lining to the political coup in removing Joe Biden as the Democrat nominee in 2024 it’s that the masquerade is over. No more Trojan Horsing the socialist ideals of the unAmerican Left (and by that I mean Democrat Party writ large) via the lie of moderate, likable good old Scranton Joe. The mask is off, the revolution inside the Democrat Party complete: the red fascists have won and they now have two of their people as the candidates for the party.
The question is will the American people be duped by the corporate propagandists’ nauseating hagiographic presentation of Comrade Kamala, who just short weeks ago was previously acknowledged as the nation’s leading purveyor of word salads? Or will the American people see through the lies and reject the threat of red fascism? With us living in a propaganda state, and the truth a daily victim of the lies, the fight is on to preserve liberty, equality, impartial justice, and quite frankly representative democracy. If Trump loses, all of that will be gone and our once free Republic will reside beside the Soviet Union on the ash heap of history.
Agreed. This is happening. Again.
Not many have the balls to call it what it is.
Good article - a worthy read and easily understood by all.
As Mark Steyn said: "The future belongs to those who show up". The pagan communist baby killers can't own the future because they won't be there. The mooselims however, love to make babies and raise them to jihad.
So, stop being "prolife" and start being prolific instead. Ditch your abortifacient birth control and try to have at least as many beautiful grandchildren as PDJT.

In the build-up to WW2, there was a saying among Italian fascists who were previously communists: “First brown, then red.” Years ago, I read a book called Liberal Fascism. Don’t let our overlords make anyone believe that there is something called the Far Right. It’s all leftism.
“coercive socialism”
Those words should be on everyone’s lips. How many voters, even among the most ignorant, want that?

Sums it up so well.

As president Calvin Coolidge (R) said a hundred years ago, “The business of America is business.”
The media, our government and education system would like to define right and left as communist on one end and fascist on the other. But that is not the difference between the democrats and republicans. Republicans are actually liberal in terms of the founding fathers. They believe in constitutional rights. They are the keepers of free speech and other rights. The left is both fascist and communist. They believe the government is all powerful. Rights have their limits. And corporations are just arms of the government, which are often used to get around governmental limitations.
Everyone keeps forgetting that the NAZIs are the nationalist socialists. They believed that the government was supreme. And the corporations were subservient to the government. That is where the democrats are now. They use twitter and the media and the weapons industry as tools for the government to stay in power. Trump is no NAZI. But the forces against him are. Right now means constitutionalism. Left means governmental control with few legal limitations.
