No, sounds like it though, doesn’t it?

Yep…that’s what fooled me. Then my other guess was Castro because I knew he was.

This will be my only comment in this thread…
Changing choice words and then labeling a doctored quote from Hilter as “progressive” is perhaps the most ridiculous thread I’ve seen here.
The guy who wanted to conserve racial purity is now a progressive

To be fair Hitler was a product of his era. That entire generation (born from about 1880 to about 1900, the WWI generation) had a collection of viewpoints that didn’t necessarily mesh together to our modern sensibilities.
They were both eugenicists and social progressives. Racial idealists and socialists in their character. They were all over the place. It’s why I’ve always found that that entire generation fascinating. They weren’t as ideologically consistent as we are today.
I also find it interesting how that entire generation was basically a bunch of socialists. Both sides of WWI were fought by young men who were best described as socialist trade unionists.
Well said.
One word.
Read the rest of it. Sting?

To be fair, nazism was progressive.
It, like socialism, communism, etc stems from a gnosis.
They both become totalitarian the instant they are imposed. Become collective.
How many times have we been told “wrong side of history” like they own history? Have some special insight.
Progressivism and fascism aren’t opposite ends of a spectrum, they are the same things.

It’s from Mein Kampf, chapter 11, the bad chapter.
What is the difference between what I quoted and the collectivism espoused by today’s progressive/socialists/communists?
The collective collectivism. The greater good. The social contract.
Let me guess; he did it wrong, you’ll do it right? You won’t take it too far?

This is bad. Very bad.
Free thinking and acting has created the resource abundance the globe enjoys.
Let’s not mess that up.

Exactly! All tyrants fall under the umbrella of collectivism.

Boy, the Right really hates being on the ideologic spectrum with Nazis. Regardless, Libs are on the side with Communists and that doesn’t mean all Libs are Communists. Just like it doesn’t mean all Cons are Nazis. It is just the spectrum they share. And don’t give me the “National Socialist” nonsense. there is nothing socialist about a Nazi in practice, they hate each other.
Libs can never be Nazis, and Cons can never be Commies. Except lately, Cons have really embraced Authoritarianism and I am not sure where on the spectrum that is. Between Putin and Viktor Orban, there is a real connection the fringe right has with strongmen, and that seems to really interest Trump as well.

Well there is a key similarity between Nazism and Marxism-Leninism. They both believe in the power of a collective dictatorship to change society. Other than that they hate each other.
