Liberals Are Simple-Minded...and often more dogmatic than conservatives, according to a new study. http://reason.com/archives/2016/01/15/liberals-are-simple-minded
I know the feeling, Sometimes it feels like trying to swim upstream against leftist propaganda.
That sounds awfully familiar doesn’t it?
The left cannot bear to look into the mirror raised by history, they know they will see the images of both Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin reflected back at them.
Socialism has been tried over and over throughout the history of mankind, and it has ended up the same way every time. A very small clique ends up controlling every aspect of the lives of a vast number of “proletarians” or “serfs” or “working-men”, using the fruit of their labor to justify distribution “from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs”, a simplistic equation which has never worked except under threat of punishment, prison or execution.
Mao Tse-Tung, or Mao Zedong, or Mousy Tongue, one famously said, “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”
Pretty much has to be that way in any socialist scheme ever devised.
Hmmm. Compare Hitler in the 1930s/1940s to Bloomberg today.
Speaking to the Aspen Institute on February 6, Michael Bloomberg said cities should ban young minority males from owning guns, both as an effort to reduce crime and to keep those minority males "alive."
The easier way to explain it is the NAZI-ism (National Socialism) is on the political right of full on Communism (leftists) Which is why NAZI’s were considered “right wingers”
Exactly - all part of the Socialist program.
Because you certainly cannot take people’s property for redistribution without a monopoly on the use of force.
I’ve always thought that the consigning of the Nazis to the right was due to the contrast between the nationalism on steroids of the various fascist governments (Italy, Spain, Germany) and the internationalist communists, particularly Russia and the allied German communists. The Nazis were socialist but communists were their biggest enemy. Many Jews in Germany were communists.
Ironic, isn’t it? It’s a pretty safe bet to reverse any thing claimed by democrats to find the truth of the matter. I haven’t found a single instance where it fails.
Tolerance.
Co-exist.
Choice.
Freedom.
Free speech.
Safe space.
Truth.
The list is pretty much endless. All of these memes mean the opposite.
Millennials don’t.
It sure does.
“Hitler hated ...Capitalism.”
Not correct. Hitler and the Nazi Party tolerated capitalism so long as it advanced the goals of the Nazi Party.
Nice find, thanks for posting.
The problem with that is that it’s contrary to the political spectrum.
As one goes further left, government control increases.. that is at odds with characterizing the Nazi’s as ‘right wing’.
More than that, according to Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn in his book "Leftism Revisited", the original Nazi flags were MADE from Communist flags. They simply sewed a Swastika over the Hammer and Sickle on the flags they already had.
The Nazis were a splinter group off the communist movement in Germany. Oh, and they were also a Homosexual club when they started.

Right wing means different things in the USA and Europe. In Europe the right traditionally were monarchists. With the end of monarchial rule that became statist and nationalist. That’s what European “conservatives” wanted to conserve. In America the monarchists were kicked out, and American conservatives want to conserve the classic liberalism of the Founders.
The socialist left is the same in both places.
Are we (am I) allowed to call Hitler a Nazi?
I sure don’t want to offend anyone.
OK?
“Alois Schicklgruber’s Nazi Party was the right-wing of the socialist movement, with the left being Trotsky-Lenin’s Communist party.”
Please elaborate on how there can be a right-wing to a socialist party.
