Do you realize that 'Nazis' is a Socialist term and Socialism is related to Communism?

In the conservative arsenal against liberal smugness, complacency, and general disgustingness, this is the equivalent of the daisy cutter bomb: devastating and unanswerable because it's true. Hitler was a National Socialist. This means liberals, who are socialists in all but name, are Nazis. Should they question this—as they will—refer them to Jonah Goldberg's indispensible Liberal Fascism, in which all is explained: the red in the Nazi flag represents communism; the person largely responsible for the common misconception that Nazism was a movement of the political right was Joseph Stalin—who wanted to hide the embarrassing truth of just how close it was to Soviet communism; the Nazis were no bigger on free enterprise and liberty than the Obama administration is.

    Yeah Hitler was a leftest also Democrats can't stand our views and their final solution is killing us and then their own slowly gaining wealth on the bones of dead babies.

    Source(s): Also the democrats were American slave owners ask Robert Byrd.

    No, I don't "realize" it because I am educated and know for a fact the Nazis were not Liberals.Ask any Jewish, or not, holocaust scholar. Surely, you do troll. Now, if Hitler were a Liberal and we know skinheads idolize Hitler, then the Skinheads are Liberals.Tell me where is your common sense.Glenn BecKKK is dumbing you down?Also, why are Jewish Americans more than 70% registered Democrats? They hoodwinked too?

    Conservatives and right-wingers will never understand ( nor admit ) that when Hitler used the term 'socialism' he meant something different :

    "...Hitler was not a socialist in the strict sense of the word; this can be shown by his definition of 'socialist', which differs from the norm:

    Whoever is prepared to make the national cause his own to such an extent that he knows no higher ideal than the welfare of his nation; whoever has understood our great national anthem, Deutschland, Deutschland, über Alles, to mean that nothing in the wide world surpasses in his eyes this Germany, people and land, land and people — that man is a Socialist.

    Hitler's meaning of socialism, therefore did not refer to a specific economic system, but to "an instinct for national self-preservation"

    Also, Conservatives and right-wingers ABSOLUTELY never admit that Hitler believed that socialism was a right-wing ideology and was identical to German/Aryan nationalism ( e.g. One Blood, One Nation ) :

    1. 'NATIONAL' AND 'SOCIAL' ARE TWO IDENTICAL CONCEPTIONS. It was only the Jew who succeeded, through falsifying the social idea and turning it into Marxism, not only in divorcing the social idea from the national, but in actually representing them as utterly contradictory. That aim he has in fact achieved. At the founding of this Movement we formed the decision that we would give expression to this idea of ours of the identity of the two conceptions: despite all warnings, on the basis of what we had come to believe, on the basis of the sincerity of our will, we christened it ''National Socialist.' - Munich, 1922

    As for 'Liberal Fascism', any number of reviews have highlighted the myriad of flaws in Goldberg's work of fiction :

    Also, the nazi symbol in the center of their flag represents their total opposition to Communism, which Hitler believed was a Jewish plot.

    In addition, what those on the right also 'forget' is that many German industrialists not only bankrolled Hitler and the nazis, but made fortunes during the war.

    Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Mussolini, Pol Pot, Castro, Chavez, Mugabe. All men of the left.

    I forgot little Kim in North Korea. Tnx Alex.

    Hey dreamy pollywog. How come Black Panthers like Democrats? Racist skin heads like Hitler because he was a racist and a nationalist. A lot of skin heads are into the "working class" mentality. Classism is a leftist idea. :)

    Ok, wait a second. Socialism has existed in the US for hundreds of years e.g. public schools, postal service, police, fire, roads...ect. I understand what you are getting at but lets not go nuts. We are all still Americans not Nazis.

    Yes I do now. And another country is called The Republic of North Korea, therefore all republicans are short, stupid, ruthless dictators starving their own people to make weapons.

    thank you for straightening me out. I now see how wanting children to have health care is the same as wanting to kill all jews.

    Glad that's cleared up.
