If you go back to 1932/1933...what Hitler kept pointing at...was not the left-of-center normal folks....he kept pointing at the unsafe atmosphere that the Communist Party in Germany was presenting. So a lot of this voting came because of a perceived threat.
After 1934...the Communist Party was banned, and a number of folks at the top were arrested, or escaped off to Russia. I should note three years later in Russia...the ‘purge’ occurred and these German communists were either executed or sent to Siberia...because they were too radical there in the Soviet Union.
Adding to this story...what remained of the Communist Party in Germany after 1934...became Antifa (the creation we have today) and extremely determined to end fascism (and everything else except for Communism). The same group we have today in the US...are basically Marxists play-acting as the original Antifa of Germany.
Thanks!
Good info.
Marx friend Max Stirner became what he called individual anarchism the beginning of Syndicalism. Mussolini picked up with “fascists syndicalism” years later.
Statement from Seattle Antifa:
Science is now in the process of destroying religious dogma. The dogma of the divine creation is recognized as absurd. With each new discovery of chemistry, physics, biology, the anthropological sciences, of the practical application of sound principles, dogma collapses. It is a part of that old edifice of religion which crumbles and falls in ruins. The faculty by which man is differentiated from the lower animals is his reasoning power. But the devout believer renounces reason, refuses to explain the things which surround him, the innumerable natural phenomena, because his religious faith is enough for him. The brain loses the habit of thinking; and this religious sottishness hurls mankind back into animalism.
The rapacious property-owning American [...] admits no limits, possesses no scruples and does not share the fears and the cowardice of our bourgeoisie. [They are] violent, absolute criminal. When they feel the need, they simply stain their hands with proletarian blood. They lack any human sense. They are only interested in exploitation. We want an extraordinary heavy taxation, with a progressive character, on capital, that will represent an authentic partial expropriation of all wealth; seizures of all assets of religious congregations and suppression of all the ecclesiastic [...] revenues, in what constitutes an enormous deficit of the nation and a privilege for a minority; revisions of all contracts made by the war ministers and seizure of 85% of all war profits.
To-day we can affirm that the capitalistic method of production is out of date. So is the doctrine of laissez-faire, the theoretical basis of capitalism… To-day we are taking a new and decisive step in the path of revolution. A revolution, in order to be great, must be a social revolution. Silence is the only answer you should give to the fools. Where ignorance speaks, intelligence should not give [advice]. We do not argue with those who disagree with us, we destroy them.
Marx was the greatest of all theorists of socialism. [Marx] had a profound critical intelligence and was in some sense even a prophet.
Just kidding. It wasn't Antifa. It was Benito Mussolini.
