I've heard that the progressive agenda is similar to the Nazi's except for internment camps. Is this true?

I've had many people point similarities but I'm not sure.

Nope. Don't believe everything you hear about progressives that comes from conservative propaganda websites, books, pamplets, etc. It is strictly BS.

Progressives want all sorts of evil things, like freedom, adequate education, health care, a fair shake for immigrants, employment security, fiscal responsibility, good retirement benefits and a sensible less aggressive defense posture.

Progressive hero Franklin Delano Roosevelt, however, did approve Japanese internment and although later Presidents apologized, the Supreme Court never found it unconstitutional.

So Internment Camps for FOX news opiniontainers who lie, encourage violence against our leaders and create sedition, may just be next on the progressive agenda. Why else do you think Guantanamo is still open when the President said he'd close it?

No, that's incorrect. While the Nazi's were called National Socialists, they actually didn't have a socialist agenda. It was just the easiest established party for Hitler to co-opt. Two brothers, who were the leaders of the National Socialist party and actually believed in socialism quickly became Hitler's enemies when they continued to push for socialist policies. One was executed. The other fled the country and started an anti-Hitler newspaper

Ok, all you people out there using the "political spectrum" that 1-D model of labeling ideologies and people is outdated and wrong. For example, Hitler would be on the right and Stalin on the left. Also of the right would be Ron Paul and also on the left would be Mother Teresa. However you wouldn't say that Ron Paul and Hitler have the same goals/ agendas for governing. Also, you wouldn't say that Stalin and Teresa were best buds and they would have gotten along. So please use a little logic, I know its hard because public schools educated you, but please try

I think you probably heard that the Nazi's propaganda tactics are close to the Progressives. They are, the Nazi's Propaganda guy Goebbels learned them from Ed Bernays book, propaganda that the Progs use.

The Nazi's also used the Progressive Book, Eugenics to justify eliminating the weak in society. Just like Hillary Clinton's hero Margaret Sanger used it to justify Planned Parenthood, which was created to eliminate the Black Population in the US. She admitted it.
