Is it fascism?
I have noticed that a lot recently there have been acusations of many people being fascists or nazis.
Wanted to clear something up real quick on this regard.
Nazi stands for National Socialism, which wants a socialism that has a "Master Race" with the Germans being on the top and everyone else on the bottom. They wanted to take over the world and establish a dominant GERMAN SOCIETY.
Communism is basically for World Wide Socialism, in which they don't care about your race/country of origin, they want all people to be under it(like one world government). They want to take over the world and establish a dominant socialist society that doesn't have a specific race/ethnicity as the top tier rulers, but rather the in group of the deep state leaders are on top(those with power and a cult like following).
Conservatives don't want any of that. Conservatives and Democrats want to use the government for good purposes and not to control everybody with a New World Order with only the elite power brokers at the top. Sadl in the USA this is kind of how it is currently due to all of the cronyism, we need to vote that out. We are able to vote that out and should, in communism or socialism you cannot vote anything out.
So I hope that clears it up.
democrats are nazis to the effect that their beliefs are identical.
You're spot on @memeboi. Unfortunately derogatory terms are the new norm to describe people you dont agree with
it interesting that you did not give a definition for fascism.
I think that some people who identify themselves as conservatives may actually hold some fascist ideals and policy preferences
You can think that all you want, the definition of a conservative or a democrat is nowhere near Socialism or Fascism.
I am NOT interested in exploring hypotheticals like you are commenting here, when there is real definitions for things and words have meaning. Why is it up to me to tell you what a definition is?
Do you know people who self identify as "conservatives" but hold fascist ideals and policies? If so, guess what, they aren't conservatives! THere is like 5,000 Neo Nazis in America or something like that, feel free to look it up. It is a bogeyman, you have a better chance of being hit by lightning 3 times in the same day in the same spot than you do from being killed by some Neo Nazi, same odds of dying to a terrorist, or the same odds as dying to a communist in America. They largely don't exist and it is not something to focus on to any meaningful degree.
My post is about how everyone is getting into the "fad"of just outright crying wolf 10000000000000 times everyday and calling people Neo Nazis or whatever. Theres a few thousand of them, and we hav 340million people in this country, they are extremely irrelevant and they will never rise to popularity in the USA EVER. NEVER NEVER NEVER.
thanks for the reply @memeboi
its interesting. I may reply more another day when I get more time
I was not actually talking hypothetically.
It is just a statement of fact, some people who present themselves as fitting into a particular political framework could be described more accurately as being fascists.
Definitions are very useful.
And many people take the definition of somthing and then try to call themselves that.
For example, the alt-right isn't necessarily neo nazi or nazi. The left right spectrum is control is as far left as you can go(communism and dictatorship) and on the right as far as you can go(anarchy and minarchism).
The Nazis(fascists) were the National Socialist Party NDSAP or whatever that acronym was. A lot of USA history does not teach us that the Nazis were socialists. Their socialism was a unique one in that they emphasized Germans being in control of everything, and all other races were inferior. Communism is socialism with people in charge but they do not necessarily care about a "master race being in charge". Communism is world wide and they want to spread it to all countries and there isn't a particular emphasis on a master race. The Nazis wanted Germans ot be the master race and all others subservient to them.
On the far right you have people who live in the wilderness and farm for themselves with little to no government in their way. THere are a lot of us on the anarchy side who do not believe in giving governments so much control
If you think about it in terms of "our team" vs "their team" one team always loses. So when a Democrat gets in all the Republicans are pissed off for years, how is that healthy, and vice versa for a Republican getting in and Democrats are pissed off for years. That creates division if you really think about it, it is really toxic to have our system setup this way. When a dem comes in and undoes all the stuff a repub did it proves the govt is broken(or vice versa), because power is then arbitrary and depends on your politics and your team winning, when it should be based on DOING THE RIGHT THING FOR THE COUNTRY.
