Nazi Greens
TruthNews ^ | Jun 14, 2003 | Judson Cox

Posted on 06/16/2003 12:46:18 AM PDT by PeaceBeWithYou

During the 2000 elections, I was enrolled at the University Of Georgia. A large university campus is a fascinating place to be during a presidential election; it is a microcosm of political views ranging from the mainstream to the absurd. I was involved with both Republican and Libertarian club events, but the colorful activities of other political ideologies did not escape my attention. The daily panorama of politics ranged from the banality one would expect to be a reflection of the Gore/Lieberman ticket, to the playfully politically incorrect witticisms that have come to be expected from College Republicans. But the fun did not stop there. We were treated to Libertarian gun raffles which were hugely successful in numbers attracted, media attention and funds raised. There were parades of Greens with their usual macabre signs and costumes, decrying capitalism, environmental destruction and the military, with their ever present drums and threats of violence. The smaller organizations ranged from racial identity groups (who seemed very serious), hard core communists and hold-out supporters of Jell-O Biafra, Frank Zappa For President boosters (surely a boon for the running mate, as Zappa had recently expired), and even a loose-knit cadre of anarchists and Marxists who leafleted and graffitied the campus with "Pigasus For President" messages. I can only assume that this was not the same pig that the Yippies ran against President Nixon, but given that many in this group identified themselves as witches, I will not rule out reanimation. After all, the Democrats tried it in 2002, with former Senator Fritz Mondale and former Senator Frank Lautenburg.

It was just before this bewildering time that I met a girl who would give me insight into the Left that I otherwise might not have. When I met her (she will remain unnamed), she was not committed to any political ideology. She was an unusually bright girl; attractive and well humored, with a scathing wit. We spent a good deal of time together. At some point, she began a strange transformation. Gradually, her mood darkened, her humor became far more negative and surfaced less frequently, and she began avoiding discussions of politics with me. Eventually, she admitted that she had become a Nazi (yes, an actual Hitler-quoting Nazi). Of course, I tried to talk her out of it. I tried my best to explain the failures of socialism to her, and to defend the Jewish people. I attempted both reason and emotion. I debunked the "Protocols Of The Wise Men Of Zion," as Czarist propaganda, and countered the conspiracy theories concerning the Rothchilds and Israel. I listed the great accomplishments of famous Jews, and even convinced her that science, philosophy, religion, art, economics and literature have been greatly furthered by Jewish accomplishments. It was all for naught. She had surrounded herself with charismatic Nazis, and had been completely taken in by their lies. It was the end of our friendship.

Time passed and as we were traveling in different circles, our paths did not cross. It was during the election that I next became aware of her. I spotted her among the Green Party mobs, agitating in support of Ralph Nader being allowed on the ballot. I will admit that I always hoped Nader would be a bit of a Ross Perot to Al Gore, so I approached her and offered to sign her petition. "Hey, ____," I said, "I thought you were a Nazi; what are you doing supporting Nader?" "I am a Nazi," she replied, "That's why I'm supporting Nader." I must have looked a bit puzzled, because she continued, "What do you think Nazism is? It's national socialism. Only we don't support any one nation. We want an end to all capitalist governments, and the environmental destruction they entail. Also, we're all against the Jews. The Jews run everything; they are responsible for capitalist exploitation and environmental destruction. They are responsible for poverty, war, and global warming. What they are doing to Palestine they will do to all of us if we let them." "So," I asked in disbelief, "the Green Party is anti-Semitic?" "Most of us are," she replied, "Some of us even call ourselves Nazi Greens, especially in Europe." "You are insane," I told her, as I walked away, feeling nauseous.

This exchange helped me understand what would otherwise be a puzzling phenomenon. An honest appraisal of the Left over the past few years will show that it is growing increasingly anti-Semitic. On its face, this just does not make sense. Jews are generally associated with liberal causes, but modern liberalism is growing less accepting of Jews. Perhaps Edward Said's continuous parroting of Palestinian condemnations of "Zionism" is at the root, but the tree has grown far beyond the Palestinian cause. What began with Israeli divestment campaigns on college campuses, that equated Israel to Apartheid South Africa, has grown to the point that the phrase "Zionist conspiracy" has become a virtual shibboleth (if you will pardon the metaphor) of not merely Timothy McVeighs, but of increasingly mainstream liberals.

The rise of anti-Semitism on the left seems to have come to a head following the September 11th terrorist attacks. With the appearance of books claiming to prove that Israel was behind the terrorist attacks, the Zionist conspiracy became common currency. Liberal websites and leaders spread this message, until blatant anti-Semitism became common place at every war protest. Filthy, French style, protesters held signs blaming the world's ills on Jews, while their French counterparts defaced synagogues and graves, and attacked Jews on the streets.

This tide of sentiment is not limited to the dirty and the youthful. Indeed, a veritable cottage industry has been formed of lawyers, led by the ACLU, who make a living defending those who seek to, or who actively encourage killing Jews in Israel and abroad. More and more, the Left makes it clear that the only religion they approve of is the one that preaches the killing of Jews (and Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.) - Islam. Even among mainstream democrats, anti-Semitism is not condemned. When Jesse Jackson used the slur, "hymie town," he was not denounced by a single liberal, nor was Al Sharpton rebuked when he said he would not tolerate a Hadassah (Lieberman's wife) in the White House. Even Hillary Clinton is forgiven for reportedly calling Dick Morris a "Jew bastard." The "Zionist conspiracy" is even being leveled against the Bush administration as the term "neoconservative" has resurfaced as synonymous with Jewish conservative. From the radical fringe to the democratic party proper, the Left claims that the Bush administration is merely a pawn of Israel.

I do not pretend that my experience with a Nazi turned Green is evidence that all Greens are Nazis; I am sure many are not. I also do not believe that all liberals are anti-Semitic, nor that all liberals are tolerant of such. However, evidence proves that anti-Semitism is increasingly common on the left. What was formerly agreed upon as the greatest evil of the twentieth century is being embraced and tolerated by many of the most influential leaders and constituencies of the Left. As an active Republican, and committed conservative, I can attest that neither this kind of rhetoric, nor ideology, is tolerated on the Right. Any Republican who espoused such racist nonsense would be roundly condemned, and forced out of any leadership position.

This is what makes so much of the Left's rhetoric so maddening. After all, the Left frequently likens Republicans to Nazis, from the protesters carrying signs depicting President Bush with a Hitler mustache, to Janet Reno's Nazi reference at a group of Jewish voters in Florida just last week. The Left simply can't have it both ways. If a leader were to arise-a man who was a vegetarian, a radical environmentalist, a tea-drinking, nature worshipping, anti-smoking fanatic, a socialist, a proponent of abortion and of medical research utilizing fetal tissue, who would outlaw speech and ideas that he didn't approve of, an animal rights activist, a controversial artist and writer, a pagan who's harshest rhetoric was directed against Jews and Christians - he could rise quickly to the leadership of the Green Party. Indeed, such a man would find few critics among democrats, and would be welcomed by the faculty of most colleges. Such a man did once exist, and did become the leader of a modern nation only a few decades ago. That man was Adolph Hitler.

>>>>>Many leading European elitists were vegetarian at the time. The diet was promoted as the pathway to enlightenment, good health, and a long life, all things with which Hitler was obsessed.<<<<

When Rudolph Hess, on his own initiative, without telling Hitler, flew to England to try and make peace with Britian, Goebbels' wrote in his diary that Hess lost his mind from "eating grass", refering to the strict diet Hess followed.

The communists hung this label on the Nazi's.
Well, commis do a lot of name calling. I remember reading some crap from some lefty group claiming the june 17 1953 uprising (hey should I do a post on it's 50th birthday tomorrow?) was somehow realy an uprising against the "capitalist bulshevics"(speling) by some kind of more democratic commis.

Ok, I think I'll have to learn new definitions for this forum. "Right" here is defined as tring to minimize government power. I'm used to loose definitions of left and right based on a bunch of idealogies, either one able to get out of control and go totalitarian if given a chance. I see now how this goes against that definition of "right" accepted here. I still contend that there have been people who were considered "right" or "conservative" which have only increased governments size and power.

One thing that's bugging me: you don't think that all enviromental legislation is facism do you? Is any regualtion of industry facism? Of course government can regulate an industry. Government regulated industry by telling them they couldn't use slaves as a labor force. There are hundreds of other ways government can regulate industry.

As for environmental regulations carried out by hordes of Washington bureaucrats, I believe the answer is no. The environment should be regulated locally through individual or group contract and the use of common law in our courts.

Here's a true story:

In about 1890, a mining company built a copper mill to process copper. When the mill cranked up and started milling the copper, big black plumes of smoke rolled out over the town. The ladies living there saw the black soot drifting into their dens and homes, soiling their linens, drapes and clothing.

They banded together, marched down to city hall and demanded that the mayor tell the company to cease and desist - immediately.

The mayor met with the company officials and told them that its milling process was trespassing into the women's homes, causing soiling and other damage. Under the common law called trespass, the company had two choices - agree to pay the laundry bills for the ladies or stop the pollution. If the company refused to act, the ladies could file a common law suit in the local court for trespass. The company opted to stop the pollution and within days fitted its chimney with a soot catcher. It was all carried out quickly to everyone's satisfaction.

Under this common law, the aggrieved party controls the process and wins the damages. Under the process we have now - unelected bureaucrats exerting control - the government is paid the damages and can also be bribed to look the other way.

I'm sure an attorney here can explain common law better than me, but common law gives power to individuals while regulation gives control to big government.

I'm sorry I don't buy that. At least not yet. Sure it works when the damage is obvious and the aggrieved parties notice it right away.

If it takes a $200,000 study to prove that what a company is doing is bad there is a problem here especially if the company has it's own $400,000 fake study showing it's not. Considering court fees and hiring experts the little wives club wouldn't cut it.

Someone has to notice the pollution. The little wives may not notice that some fly by night SOBs dump heavy metals in their drinking water until it's too late. If you know some chemical company or Sadam is producing something naughty, you want to force him to account for his waste disposal.

If you can show me how this can work in private industry so well that the government doesn't need to do it anymore ok. I submit private corporations are just as bribeable as public bureocracies and less accountable to the public. I would hate to see the public system removed before a private one takes over. I'm not saying I like it, but it's better than companies just doing what they want. Sorry I'm sounding like a lefty again :-0.

OK, here you go.

Private corporations LOVE regulations because it kills their smaller competition and allows them to buy preferable treatment. You do know why Pew (SUNOCO), Rockefeller (Exxon/Mobil), Prince Bernhard (Shell (when it was Dutch)), and the British Royals (BP) are the largest single group of supporters of environmental NGOs, don't you? They use tax-exempt funds to do it too.

I would hate to see the public system removed before a private one takes over.

The system implementation is incremental.

I'm not saying I like it, but it's better than companies just doing what they want. Sorry I'm sounding like a lefty again :-0.

That's because you are one.

Sorry, you're just plain high. Hitler was an anti-capitalist left wing NAZI (National Socialists) that most American socialist politicians quite frankly, I believe, admire deep down. If they could somehow get away with it.

However, I don't think a linear 'left-right' illustration possibly can do justice to the dynamics of the political world. It's so many times more dimensional than that.

Private industry fueled the Nazi German economy.

Under threat of all German industry being nationalized, which it in effect was.

Yeah, especially when the endangered species that the government uses to take your own land from you is an insect barely visible to the naked eye...yeah, there's a long history of the government and private property we can go into.

Have you seen the "political Compass" site?
http://www.digitalronin.f2s.com/politicalcompass/index.html

The basic Idea is that Left-Right is far too simplistic a yardstick to judge political philosophies. It uses a two dimensional representation like this:

Social Authoritarian
|
|
|
Economic....................|....................Economic
Authoritarian________|___________Libralism
|
|
|
|
Social Liberalism

The social scale roughly measures commitment to individual rights. Both opposition to the war on drugs AND opposition to gun control would rate as "social liberal" positions because they support individual rights over "the good of society" (I put that in qoutes for a reason - everyone has their own definition what "good for society" means and all authoritarians use it as their justification). The Economic scale rates the degree of freedom for businesses and also reflects taxation policy. Note that this reflects feelings towards established business AND entreprenuers - so support for removing bearucratic regulation from big corporations AND removing tax breaks and "corporate welfare" from those same businesses would BOTH be examples of Economic Liberalism.

On this scale you would rate a libertarian as a strong Economic AND Social liberal. A Stalinist would be a strong Social AND Economic Authoritarian. A socialist would tend to be an Economic Authoritarian and Social Liberal. A conservative tends to be a Social Authoritarian and Economic Liberal.

Note that these are scales - not absolutes. Stalin was an extreme Social Authoritarian because he believed that it was OK to starve 20 million people to death to advance his agenda. Someone who supports the war on drugs, opposes the Gay Rights agenda, and thinks the government should do more to support traditional families, is a Moderate Social Authoritarian. It's important to pay attentention to distinctions and not fall into the fanatic's trap of labeling everybody as the most extreme example.

By this chart; Hitler would be near the middle economically (strong regulations of business, but no direct nationalizations), and etremely strong Social authoritarian. He and Stalin would have gotten along famously if they avoided economics.

It should be noted that most of the people on this forum tend to be somewhat Economically Liberal. They range the gamut from fairly Socially Liberal (the libertarians everyone loves to pick on) to Moderately Social Authoritarian (the guys most likely to flame me). The "Liberals" most likely to be maligned here are Economic and Social Authoritarians. They not only hate freedom for business, they hate diversity of opinion (read:"freedom") and seek to stamp it out with their PC speech codes and manditory "sensitivity training". All for "the good of society", of course.

Finally; That I not be accused of throwing mud from the sidelines without revealing my own opinions, here is how I rate:
I am fairly strongly Econmically Liberal with a strong bias towards entreprenuerial "rights" over corporate "rights" (which always seem to boil down to the "right" to protect themselves from competetion). I'm also moderately Social Liberal and describe myself as, "a consevative with libertarian sympathies". It wouldn't be wrong to say "moderate libertarian" except that online the term seems to be an oxymoron.

When blacks were supported by dems, dixicrats hopped over to the reps.

No they didn't. They split into a third party. Many ended up joining the Republican Party, but only after repudiating their stand on segregation. Die hard Confederate sympathizers remain Democrats to this day, because they will never vote for the party of Lincoln. Neo-nazis don't support either major party because they believe both are controlled by jews.

When pro-Isreal groups gained support of the reps, antisemitists will pop up with the dems and other left parties... We just have to make it 100% clear to our politicians if you support these racists in any way... we'll vote against you.

The left considers the Israelis to be the racists, not to mention the republicans. The left is against Israel because they hate all patriotism and religion.

As he was complaining about capitalism then, he was being funded by banks and rich buisnessmen.

You are confusing finance with capitalism. Plenty of rich businessmen support socialism.

Hitler and the Nazis considered capitalism and communism both to be materialistic Jewish inventions. They smashed the windows of Jewish department stores for the same reason anti-globalism protestors do today. They demonized the "greedy" jews with the same class warfare rhetoric the left now uses to attack American businessmen.

The Nazi regime was a centrally planned socialist economy. The government directed the industry. They just didn't murder all the managers and businessmen like the Communists do.

...on the other side Hitler died a Catholic never denounced by the church.

He certainly denounced Catholicism.

Nazis were the result of the German Right loosing faith in democracy and buying into a bunch of bull crap.

Nazis were the result of the common German worker buying into a lot of bull crap. The blue-blooded aristocracy always hated Hitler and tried to kill him because they wanted to win World War 2.

Definately at the time he was considered to be right wing

Right and left are relative terms. What was 'considered' right in another country at some time in the past doesn't necessarily have anything to do with American conservatism.

Libertarian National Socialist Green Party

The "Green Wing" of the Nazi Party and its Historical Antecedents

Nazi "Ecology"

The Greening of McKinney

Well, first of all your comments should be directed at the author of the commentary, Judson Cox, not me.

That said...

The misconception that "Hitler and the NAZIs came from the right" goes back to who and when that statement was made - Joe Stalin WWII.

Any attack on Stalin would have, by necessity, come from the "right" as he was posited as far to the left as possible. To equivicate "that right" with today's conservative right is falsity, and will destroy any credibilty you may have built up here on FR.

The left likes to throw the Nazi term at the right to deflect attention away from their own exstreamisms. 99% of the time this attempt occurs, they have already lost the argument and they know it.

Great post. Yeah, I gave someone a link to political compass a while back too. The one point I'd like to add about it is that not all combinations are viable.

It should be noted that most of the people on this forum tend to be somewhat Economically Liberal. They range the gamut from fairly Socially Liberal (the libertarians everyone loves to pick on) to Moderately Social Authoritarian (the guys most likely to flame me).
Yeah, I've found this marriage of convience on the social axis working together on the economic side quite interesting. I'm sure it happens on the left too. On the one side maybe it's actually a positive sign that the country has agreed on a level of social authority, and that the only fights left are on economic issues. I worry however that while Americans are divided on economics, the government is gobling up more and more authority on the social side especially in the face of terrorism. I've seen posts here indicating that some of the non-bushbots here have similar worries.

The "Liberals" most likely to be maligned here are Economic and Social Authoritarians.
Yeah, I can understand that. I just wish they wouldn't assume one based on the other though. Not everyone that supports public schools has a picture of Mao or Stalin on his wall.

Sure I'll rate myself too. I'm pretty social liberal like you. I believe that the first obligation of a goverment is to protect individual freedoms. Without those the economics will deteriorate anyway.

On the economic scale I'm kind of pragmatic. I tend to think unregulated captialism can do bad things and that there is a responsiblity of the people to elect officials to set up rules to make markets fair as well as free. I think there are some things the public sector can do better than the private, but the majority of the economy should be private. I respect for example Germans giving everyone the right to health care, as long as the system works. I repect initiatives to privatize goverment industries as long as they work afterwards. I hope nobody takes this the wrong way: I view those who would privatize everything with about the same skepticism I would those who wanted to nationalise everything.

Oppps, I just assumed the poster was the author sorry.

Yes, and I've tried to make it clear that I'm not calling anyone here a fascist just because they call themselves right. First off I'd argue that both modern left and right in America try to purge themselves of any commis or fascists, at least publically.

I'm probably going to get blasted for this too, but there are still some modern threads left over from the left vs. right conflict of that time. I'm going to illustrate some points the two sides argue around. I used Benito Mussolini: What is Fascism, 1932 contrasting his view with socialism.

1) "All men were created equal."
commi: yes equal everything, lets kill the rich and take their stuff.
social democrat: progressive taxation, social services for the poor, let's actively fight social disparity.
conservate: flat tax, get rid of social services, the rich will take care of the poor if you let them.
fascist: no, nature never made all men equal. My race/nation/group has a right to crush others if it can. Evolutionary supperiority of races/peoples/cultures.

2) Internationalism
Commi: "workers of the world unite!", the worker has no country, solidarity for all man (and usually women).
socialist: let's strenghten the UN and make big international treaties
conservative: America first, use loose coalitions as we see fit. The threat of war will keep other countries honest. Never compromise our sovereignty.
fascist: "War alone brings up to its highest tension all human energy and puts the stamp of nobility upon the peoples who have courage to meet it." My country should be conquering its neighbors or I'm doing something wrong.

There may be other points were this contiunum from left to right is appearent. Of coarse on important issues like democracy and freedom both wing nuts seem to wind up the same. I like the political compass Capt Phoenix mentioned.

The left likes to throw the Nazi term at the right to deflect attention away from their own exstreamisms. 99% of the time this attempt occurs, they have already lost the argument and they know it.
Yes, I agree, and not all people on the left are raving commies. It is important to save words like fascist or communist for the few occasions where they really fit. You may have a point that there may be more nutty leftists that don't value democracy than there are rightists that would openly question the value of it.

I just joined, so it's a little late to respond to your post, but... I'm not a follower of Islam (a word that greatly predates Muhammad, it actually means "Peace"- in other words you're using the Arab version as a part of your user id-ironic, isn't it?), but I do know that Islam does not "preach" the murder of anyone; in fact, the Quran actually forbids the killing, even justified, of any person who is not a Muslim! Don't judge an entire people by the actions of a few. Of course there are "bad/evil" Muslims just as there are bad Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, etc.
By the way, there are also "bad/evil" Conservatives-should people judge you and the countless other upright Conservatives by the actions of a few? You're perpetuating the very stereotypes that you would denounce if applied to you. If you have to resort to that type of persuasion to make your point then it weakens your case. Please get your facts in order before making such broad, condemning statements
Thank you for your time in reading this.
