Time for the Elephant to Use Its Tusks
American Thinker ^ | 12 Jun, 2023 | Todd Gregory and Erik Gregory

Posted on 06/12/2023 4:20:48 AM PDT by MtnClimber

With apologies to William Shakespeare (a white supremacist, we're reliably informed by university academics), shall we compare the American government and Democrat party with the German Nazis of their day? As Elizabeth Barrett Browning might say, let us count the ways.

Holocaust aside (so far), Nazi fascists and American Democrats — (D) voters included — are a distinction without a difference.

As Steve McCann wrote in his excellent American Thinker article this past March, BLM and Antifa are the ruling regime's chosen violent street thug enforcers, the equivalent of the Nazi SA (Stormtroopers), while the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) are the extralegal police state SS (Schutzstaffel) of the (D) party.

Polls show that a large majority of registered Democrat voters admire these groups and their tactics, cheering on the atmosphere of intimidation, violence, censorship, confiscation of private assets, suspension of due process, arbitrary arrests of political foes, imprisonment of dissidents, and many other related abuses.

But aren't fascists right-wingers, as gesticulating, spittle-flecked presidential historians like Michael Beschloss tell us?

Yeah, no. While epitomizing and celebrating centralized power, and abolishing freedoms, fascists and communists (much like Beschloss himself) each occupy one side of the same far-left socialist coin — once again, a distinction with no meaningful difference. A fascist by any other name would be the same.

Walking around in large cities with white skin and identifying as conservative in the America of 2023 is akin to wearing a Star of David in the Germany of 1938. Hyperbole, you say? Try walking around downtown in any large American city with a MAGA hat on, and count the minutes — nay, seconds — until you are physically or verbally assaulted. Or murdered outright.

And Republicans have a Speaker of the House who seems to be working for the other side.

Conservatives and Asians are in a similar position to that of Jewish people in Eastern Europe in the 1930s being blamed for all the ills and being attacked for being smart, family oriented and good with money. It is truly sickening.

Antifa?

More like Woketifa.

It’s the militarized enforcement arm of the democrats. If you don’t like ‘wokeness’, woketifa will try to shove it down your throat.

Democrat party? That stopped existing decades ago. In many ways, they’re more communist than the Chinese communist party, and more dangerous than Hitler and Staling or Lenin or Putin. The time may have come to declare the ‘democrat’ party as the biggest danger that the U.S. ever faced.

Democrats don’t even know what “right-wing” means other than anyone not on their side. They don’t know what “fascism” means other than anyone not in favor of big government. These are just buzzwords used to demonize their opposition while they shower themselves with flattering terms that have nothing to do with their actions. Everything they do is justified in their own minds because right and wrong is based on popularity, and the only opinions that matter are those of others like themselves.

Here is the money quote from the article:

If they could push a button to erase your existence, they would not hesitate. And if they can't push the button themselves, they will support a government that promises to push the button on their behalf.

*******
Except they are not talking about pushing a button. Pushing a button is easy and neat. They are talking about stealing, beating, locking up, and killing.

“They don’t know what “fascism” means other than anyone not in favor of big government.”

It’s the nonspecific, incontrovertible word just like ‘racist’, which Liberals immediately use (and overuse) to discredit/debase all and ANY people who best them in ideology, language, intellect, logic and a command of facts and issues! It’s their ‘go to’ challenge to all opposition.

Also… their inappropriate use of the words ‘racist’ and ‘fascist’ betrays their basic ignorance of what those words mean. It is apparent that not one Liberal has a functional grasp of either word.

Also, you don’t have to debate a ‘fascist’, and you can even physically attack them and it’s ‘ok’. Wouldn’t you do the same if you encountered Hitler in the street?

Yes, that is what the authors were inferring when they said “push the button”.

I was verbally challenged by a Karen for wearing a blue Texas Rangers baseball cap. Anything with a “T” on it triggers these extremest.

America is the greatest country in the world rather then follow it’s pattern many seek to destroy it even from with in.

A lot of crazy anger and hate in the world but they will never win.
Bones are still being found of those who tried.
