In response to Keesh M's question: Is Conservative Republican a nice way of saying Nazi Fascist?

Update:

I know it's ridiculous that's why I posted the question. It's just as ridiculous as calling Democrats commies...

    In the 1930s, It used to be that Nazi was a nice way of saying facist, that was until WWI. Republican used to be a nice way of saying conservative. Today, as mainstream conservative behavior and policies approach facism the more conservative a Republican is, the closer they are to being a facist.

    Unless they speak German and are about 100 years old, they are most likely not Nazis but Facism is still as bad as it ever was.

    I don't know who keesh is, but come on comparing Republicans to Nazi Fascists already puts you on the losing side of an arguement assuming you are arguing that Republicans are close to equal to Nazis. Note: I am not a Republican

    A NAZI fascist??? Do we even know what this means??? NAZIs believed in a TOTALITARIAN lifestyle and, while the Republicans might advocate a more "moralistic" lifestyle for Americans, it is nowhere NEAR the degree of totalitarianism. There is absolutely NO logical comparison between a party that proposes conservative moral values and a party that slaughters more than 6,000,000 individuals, blaming them for their country's demise.

    formally no, it is not being taught that way (mandated by using curriculum, besides). each and every now and then a greater outspoken instructor will enable some own comments out, yet that throughout the time of itself is probably no longer the middle of the difficulty. i think of its greater concerning to the actual undeniable fact that maximum college's curriculum do no longer coach governmental shape in plenty ingredient, which leaves it to the scholars themselves to independently learn the subject count whilst they opt for to be greater or much less politically lively. this leaves gaping holes for fake effect, misuse of terminology, and only prevalent errors in good judgment and reasoning.

    It's a stupid thing to say and Democrats are not necessarily Commies. Delusional, simplistic, or even misguided, but not Commies.

    Yes, in a way. Not exactly Nazis. But a form of political extremism. Call it Neocon fascism. hehehe.

  • No. Republicans aren't fascist, and neither are most conservatives.
