The split between internationalist socialists and national socialists began just before the turn of the 20th Century.
In Europe, the IS aligned with communism, and the NS aligned with fascism. In the US, the IS supported Woodrow Wilson, and the NS supported Teddy Roosevelt.
In both Europe and the US, the vast majority were moderates who didn’t align with any form of socialism.
But in both places, “If you do not support us, you are our enemies!” was used by both communists and Nazis against moderates who opposed their radical ideas.
So to this day, IS-oriented socialists call non-socialists “Nazis” and “fascists”. The NS do not exist in any appreciable numbers.
It’ll probably be a stand in or CGI with voice over.
Or did he?
Ironically, Stalin was the ultimate “National Socialist”, he rejected Lenin and Trotsky’s internationalism for “Socialism in One Country”, and imposed Russian supremacy over the rest of the Soviet Union.
“Who in their right mind would want to listen to this lying POS who is in the White House?”
The same kind of people who slow down to take a closer look at a car crash. We’re fascinated by disasters.
That is obviously all they have to run on in November. There is not one positive thing they can run on except giving away a trillion dollars to deadbeat college kids.
This is an opening salvo for that upcoming contest.
That was then, this is now. This is the new form of re-defined Fascism developed by the governmental “reds” inside the unionized US government agencies and the hundred thousand dem partei members of the Left with 100K a year leadership income (from the Senior Executive Service- a real joke of “competence” for a purpose- power expression over the citizenry).
One could call it a modern day Aventine (since they are also controlling our economy by “directing it” as the gangs of the Aventine controlled the wheat/crops from the Roman Empire).
Worker’s “self management” never seemed to happen in the various “Soviets” beginning in the Kerensky Dumas which the Bolshies took over with... violence. The “workers paradise” disappeared with that, and of course Stalinism perfected and destroyed whatever had been built to the point he took over
The puritan Commies say Stalin destroyed Lenin’s purist vision—for what that is worth. Power— all it ever was.
Know the definition of Fascism- thank you for the additional info. Mark Levin’s “American Marxism” is a very good read for our times.
It would appear that Biden has made a very careful and thorough study of the James Buchanan and Woodrow Wilson administrations and has sought to implement the worst of both of them.
Well gee fjb.....if “everyone I hate is hitler” is OK for one side, it’s OK for the other too. Only folks who understand the difference between socialism, fascism, nazism and pure communism will understand the proverbial “writing on the wall” in the face of the liberal line blurring that is prevalent today. I think it’s called “newspeak”. But I could be wrong
Making America great again was never on Hitler’s agenda.
I’m betting he will go full Mussolini.
Very great point and observation. The word twisting and rapid uptake/utililzation of the digital LEFT is quite something.
And still— Communism fails because it fails human nature, and the Natural Laws that all seek Freedom. As our Founders studied, wrote, and codified in our Constitution.
True dat.
“Joe Biden, How Dare You Compare Me To Hitler..”
We aren’t Joe..you lack his intelligence, love of country and compassion. Also, he had the Iron Cross.
Biden is too ignorant and shallow to have an ideology. He’s in it strictly for personal aggandisement.
I haven’t done it yet, but I’d like to get a dictionary from the early 1900s and see how certain words were defined back then.
