    Progressives didn't collectivize production, the one essential element of socialism.

    P.S. Don't waste your time dropping book titles without providing references we can discuss.

    So, you're saying you were dishonest or duped and now you're a truth teller? Interesting.
    Progressives don't have a history of totalitarianism. Socialists and fascists do.

    Mussolini ultimately rejected socialism in favor of fascism. Anyway, what is the relevance of Mussolini's propaganda about progressivism?

    All I'm perpetrating is some humor and ridicule. How 'bout a second helping?

    This ain't rocket science. Trump's opponents hear racist dog whistles in everything he says because

    1) That's what Trump's opponents want to hear

    and

    2) That's what Trump's opponents want others to hear

    But like the boy who cried wolf no one pays any attention to their dishonest screeching anymore...

    Exactly. Progressives believe that government control is the answer to everything. The fundamental flaw with this is that a very strong leader is required to implement that control. What could go wrong ??

    His brazen is equally as flagrant as the Dem's brazen racism, when they are out there favoring only those minorities, who look the most like northern-European Caucasians. So don't worry ... our good ol trusty friend, karma, will surely come haunt both the Dems and Don Jr.

    Because the Dems love Elizabeth Warren only for how she looks more like Paula Poundstone, than Pocahontas, just like with Kamala Harris/Cory Booker and how neither of them look like avg American black people ---thanks to their lightskin and hair texture.

    The only ones who are paying attention are those already in the echo chamber.

    I was a naive, idealistic and impressionable young man, but I grew out of it as so many former "progressives" do. At the same time I became increasingly aware of how many "progressives" were aligned with and sympathetic towards their monstrous comrades beyond the Iron and Bamboo Curtains.

    As for being a "truth teller", those are your words, not mine.

    That depends on which "progressives" we're talking about.

    For the most part, today's "progressives" are totalitarians, which is the main reason why I am no longer a prog. As for a history of totalitarianism and authoritarianism entire books have been written about it.

    Evidently, you didn't read that post very closely. Mussolini's propaganda was about fascism - I merely changed some words around to illustrate the striking similarities between fascists and "progressives". Of course, this shouldn't come as either a surprise or a revelation given that fascists and "progressives" share the same socialist (or collectivist, if you prefer) roots.

    Them and the voters they're fond of insulting.

    Just like Mittens the Ripper's 47% gaffe, Hillary didn't do herself any favors with her "deplorables" crack. Mary Landrieu got herself run out of office for doing the same thing when she tarred Louisianans with the Democrats' broad racist brush.

    That's also why the Democratic dumpster fire here in Virginia is attracting so much national attention. Last year, Ralph Northam & Co. portrayed their Republican opponents and supporters as a bunch of racists but it's Coonman & Co. who turned up in the Klucker outfits and blackface.

    You gotta love it when dishonest trash like them are hoist by their own petard. The schadenfreude has been running deep and wide in these parts lately...

    It was propaganda:
    1. We want all Germans to live in a "Greater Germany"
    2. We want Germany to be treated the same as other nations, and we want the peace treaties of Versailles to be cancelled.
    3. We want land and territory (colonies) to feed our people and to settle our surplus population.
    4. Only Germans may be citizens of the Germany. Only those of the German races may be members of the nation, their religion does not matter. No Jew may be a citizen.
    5. Non-citizens may live in Germany, but there will be special laws for foreigners living in Germany.
    6. Only citizens can vote for parliament and councils, or vote on laws. Everyone who works for the German government, a state government or even a small village must be a citizen of Germany. We will stop giving people jobs because of the political party they are in, only the best people should get a job.
    7. We think that the government's first job is to make sure every citizen has a job and enough to eat. If the government cannot do this, people who are not citizens should be made to leave Germany.
    8. No-one who is not of a German-race should be allowed to live in Germany. We want anyone who is not of a German-race who started living in Germany after 2 August 1914 to leave the country.
    9. All citizens shall have equal rights and duties.
    10. Every citizen should have a job. Their work should not be selfish, but help everyone. Therefore we say
    11. No one should live off money from rents or other income unless they have worked for that money.
    12. So many people die or lose their property in a war, it is wrong for other people to make money from the war. Anyone who made money from the war should have all that money taken away.
    13. We want all very big corporations to be owned by the government.
    14. Big industrial companies should share their profits with the workers.
    15. We want old age pensions to be paid.
    16. We want
      • to create a healthy middle class
      • to split up big department stores, and let small traders rent space inside them
      • to make State and town governments try to buy from small traders.
    17. We want to change the way land is owned. We also want
      • a law to take over land if the country needs it, without the government having to pay for it;
      • to abolish ground rent; and
      • to prohibit land speculation (buying land just to sell to someone else for more money).
    18. Crimes against the common interest must be punished with death.
    19. We want the Roman law system changed for the German system.
    20. We want to change the system of schools and education, so that every hard-working German can have the chance of higher education.
      • What is taught should concentrate on practical things
      • Schools should teach civic affairs, so that children can become good citizens
      • If poor parent cannot afford to pay the government should pay for education.
    21. The State must protect health standards by
      • protecting mothers and infants
      • stopping children from working
      • making a law for compulsory gymnastics and sports, and
      • supporting sports clubs for young men.
    22. We want to get rid of the old army and replace it with a people's army that would look after the ordinary people, not just the rich officer-class
    23. We want the law to stop politicians from being anti-German, and newspapers from writing about them. To make a German national press we demand:
      • that all editors of, and writers in the German language newspapers are members of the nation (of a German race);
      • Foreign newspapers need permission from the government. They must not be printed in the German language;
      • Non-Germans cannot own or control German newspapers.
        • any non German who does own or control a newspaper will be made to leave Germany, and the newspaper closed down,
      • Newspapers which criticise the country or the government are not allowed.
      • Art and books which support foreign ideas, should be banned.
    24. We want to allow all religions in the State, unless they offend the moral feelings of the German race. The NSDAP is Christian, but does not belong to any denomination. The NSDAP will fight the Jewish self-interest spirit, and believes that our nation will be strongest only if everyone puts the common interest before self-interest.
    25. We will
      • create a strong central government for the Reich;
      • give Parliament control over the entire government and its organizations;
      • form groups based on class and job to carry out the laws in the various German states.
    The leaders of the Party promise to work—if need be to sacrifice their very lives—to put this programme into action.

    Hitler had no intention of implementing more than a fraction of his manifesto.

    The Green New Deal is also propaganda. Rather than erroneously compare it to the National Socialist Manifesto, why not deal with it on its own terms? It's aspirational, but contradictory snd unworkable.​

    Can you point out the hypocrisy in the Republicans' positions? So far, all we get from you are cobbled together half-truths that are nothing more than feces tossing. It comes off like something we might hear on Open Mouth AM Radio.

    Yes. We are seeing Sharyl Attkisson’s substitution rule in action.

    He was right about totalitarian government, right about problems created by a money supply growing faster than the economy, and wrong about the importance of Keynesian economics.

    Why did those Southern Conservative white supremacists insist on violating the rights of non-whites? I agree, the party fo Southern Conservatives should definitely apologize.

    Which party is that again?

    You would do well to focus on what they did, not what they wrote about their ambitions. Hitler spoke of nationalizing large industries in his manifesto while at the same time enlisting the support of German industrialists. He had no intention of collectivizing production.
    The Big Lie. Hitler never took over industry, even when Germany was losing the war and he tasked Albert Speer with putting Germany on a full war footing.
    How many times do I have to tell you the Nazis never collectivized production.
    Fixed exchange rates and the gold standard are unworkable.
    Huh?
    Relevance?

    The one thing fascists universally share is their raison d'être in the minds of the capitalist class that supports them--opposition to collectivizing production. It's what Mussoli sold in Italy, Hitler sold in Germany, Franco sold in Spain, Pinochet sold in Chile, and so on. Stop the socialists!
    No, fascism is a totalitarian reaction to socialism. It is embraced by capitalists in desperation when the political system is unable or unwilling to confront socialists attempting to destabilize the government.
    Hitler were interested in power. Mussolini abandoned socialism and Hitler never embraced it.
