Birchers are the proto-typical conspiracy theorists. Although they were ardent anti-Communists, they tended to believe in things like The Protocals and to sympathize with fascism. A Bircher might tell you, "Well, maybe Hitler wasn't so bad, afterall?" Also, they were radical isolationists, thus, the pro-Axis Charles Lindberg is a Birchite icon.

Hmmm...I’m not a member and never have been but although JBS is big on conspiracy theories regarding the CFR/ World Government/NWO, all its literature is clearly anti-Hilter/anti-facist.

I think JBS got a bad rep long ago when it’s founder wrote a book that seemed to allege that Eisenhower was a commie agent.

sympathize with fascism. A Bircher might tell you, "Well, maybe Hitler wasn't so bad, afterall?"

I don't go there.

pro-Axis Charles Lindberg is a Birchite icon.

Don't go there either.

The Protocals

Don't go there either.

Damn, I like the government conspiracy part though. Anyone who trust their government 100% is in for a surprise, imho.

If you believe that the Bilderbergs, Rothchilds, Rockefellers and the trilateralists are secretly running the world and William F. Buckley etal are communists, you might be interested in joining the JBS.

Anti-communist, but pro-fascist? So, you've bought into the propaganda that fascism is right wing communism? Get a clue, communism and fascism are two sides of the same coin.

A Bircher might tell you, "Well, maybe Hitler wasn't so bad, afterall?"

Ridiculous assertion.

Also, they were radical isolationists, thus, the pro-Axis Charles Lindberg is a Birchite icon.

Radical isolationists? Is that anything like radical constitutionalists? Lindberg is an icon because he was a valiant defender of the constitution.

Birchers are conspiracy theorists, but they do not believe in the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion".
I used to be a member, until I became disgusted with the paranoia.
However actual anti-Semitism is not allowed. A whole group were expelled and later formed the Liberty Lobby.
However, since 9-11, many isolationists have become dhimmi anti-Zionists and then anti-Semites.

      Every organization has its kooks, but the JBS society itself is not pro-NAZI.  To the contrary, the JBS correctly condemns NAZIism as a form of socialism.

So many corrections, so little space.

The conspiracy is hardly a "theory", having been proven and admitted many times.

We are still anti-communist, although we don't go in for all unfounded theories, and I personnaly am not even familiar with the "protocols" thing.

No Bircher I know would ever say such a thing about Hitler unless he was trying to "bait" you, to see how wacky you are.

Americanism is not at all "isolationism" as some people have taken to mis-using the term. There is a huge difference between "isolationism" and "avoiding entangling alliances".

Charles Lindberg was never "pro-axis", but he was an Americanist.

That has become a "naughty word" these days.
