Using Hitler and Nazi references to describe opposing political parties is dumb and needs to stop. This is especially true for the idiots who don’t understand the exact politics of the Nazi party. I am a student of world war II and over the past few years started to examine the politics of the war which, of course, includes trying to understand what the Nazi’s stood for, believed in and the differences between Nazism, communism and our republic systems. Below you will see a picture of Hitler and what a liberal believes Nazism stood for, he is beyond incorrect.
Look, the only thing Nazism had in common with conservatism, but also American liberalism, is the nationalistic aspect. Meaning extreme nationalism or even supremacy of a particular country, for example, we hold America as the exception to the world, supreme in every way or most ways, the Germans believed that about Germany. Liberals like to paint conservatives as hyper patriotic, but the reality is that both parties believe that.
Who would vote for a democrat that says America is terrible, a bully, evil, or whatever, incidentally, I believe that is what they really think about America, apology tour anyone. No one except the real left loonies would vote for a democrat who said those things which is why BOTH parties believe, in lip service anyhow, in American exceptionalism and openly talk about it.
Conservatives happen to be a bit more patriotic acting than liberals, but that is the end of where Nazism and conservatism are similar. Contrary to popular belief most conservatives are not militarists or war mongers looking to invade Canada or Iceland because, well, we can, which is what liberals want people to believe. Instead, in reality, we believe in a strong military in order to prevent us from having to go to war. The philosophy is peace through strength, simple, concise and it has largely worked. I do, as well as many other conservatives, believe that we have gone too far in our spending on the military and many, especially me, certainly didn’t believe in the Iraq war.
Read what this idiot wrote in the picture, I will assume all you know about Nazism is the Nuremberg laws, they hated Jews, were a militaristic society that carried out illegal wars of aggression. Well, a lot of that is true and some not so much, but the author of this meme knows absolutely nothing about Nazi politics. For starters, Nazi is slang for Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated as NSDAP, in America the official name is loosely translated to National Socialism. What sticks out about the English name? Socialism, maybe?
In Europe the Nazi’s were indeed right wing socialists meaning they were socialists who placed Germany first, but socialists nonetheless. Here are some of the things Hitler did for the people:
Hitler instituted wage rates for the worker,
He subsidized cars (Volkswagen “peoples car” a name Hitler himself chose, think about that liberal hipster driving your eco friendly Volkswagen),
Subsidized radios,
Subsidized luxurious vacations,
Massive public works projects, autobahn for example
Among many other things.
Does that sound like an American right wing, small government, extremist? I thought not, yet the myth is perpetuated that conservatives have more in common with Hitler than liberals when, in fact, it is liberals who are closer to Nazi’s. I can hear you thinking now, but this can’t be true, Hitler hated communism, he abolished trade unions, confiscated private property and enriched many companies during his reign. Yes, you are correct, but let me explain these things to you and it will all fit together.
Hitler hated trade unions, but with wage and price controls in place what need was there for unions? A simplified answer, but do you want me to get that deep into it? Communists were his enemies and socialism is merely communism light, true, but what Hitler hated was that communism did not believe in private property ownership, which Hitler did favor. Also, the Marxist’s, communists were his opponents to power in the 1920’s and Hitler hated competition. Don’t worry, Stalin thought that Nazi’s and communists were a good fit as well, which is one reason why he signed the nonaggression pact.
Did Hitler confiscate private property and nationalize companies? Yes, but the property he took was largely from his political opponents and the Jews. The way business worked in Nazi German was complex, but, basically, if your company benefited the Reich, i.e. you made guns, war equipment, clothing, food, etc. you were considered an asset and were not messed with. However, if you produced things that were not core products that benefited the Reich you lost out and the government took over, this is where the socialism got kicked up a notch and how he could afford to do a lot of the things he did. Those businesses that were core and beneficial to the Reich prospered and made the owners very, very wealthy.
Onward to Religion…
Yes, Nazi’s disliked Jews, surprise, right? However, the head Nazi’s were occultists and not really Christians like the idiot liberal says. Hitler used the idea that the Jews killed Jesus Christ merely as propaganda to make ordinary citizens resent the Jews more. In fact, Hitler hated organized religion, he wanted to be the people’s savior, and Jesus was competition! He never pushed for or argued against Christianity because he didn’t believe in it and the German people were very religious and he would have never gained power by oppressing Christianity, like the liberal idiot suggests. As an aside, Pope Pius XII was NOT Hitler’s pope, period. Yes, some members helped Nazi’s flee Europe after the war, but Pius XII was not one of them and actually did all in his power to save as many Jews as possible. Stalin framed Pius XII after the war for his own political proposes, but Pius never supported fascism, ever.
To say Hitler persecuted people who were unorthodox and immoral is stupid, period. Yes, he thought he was a moral person and disliked meat, alcohol and other classic immoral things he didn’t persecute others for those things. He was strict on alcohol, he didn’t like his officers drinking to excess, especially the SS, but alcohol was a ration issued to German soldiers during WWII. Since Hitler was not an orthodox Christian there was no need to persecute others…
The liberal moron author also states that Hitler came to power playing on the fears of a war torn, economically depressed country… huh? First off, WWI indeed 14 years before Hitler came to power and Germany was not still war torn as it was never even invaded during the first great war. When Hitler tried to take power in the 1920’s that was, kind of, sort of, true as the economy was in freefall, but by 1932 WWI had little bearing on the economy of Germany as the global depression was the current problem, led by the US market crash of 1929.
So, yeah, the economic factor is somewhat accurate, I guess, but the entire world was in a similar situation and in 1932 Paul von Hindenburg was elected, not Hitler. However, Hitler was popular and his strong showing as well as his parties having control over the Reichstag Hindenburg appointed Hitler. After Hindenburg died was how Hitler really came to power… he was never democratically elected.
Hitler didn’t like homosexuals; no one did in that time period, not even liberal progressive morons. In fact, the leading progressives of the day back then hated gays, minorities, women and freedom in general, leaning communist in fact. As for immigration, yeah, Hitler said no to other non-whites immigrating to Germany, as well as other undesirables, but guess what? The US was limiting immigration at that time, except from European countries. These was under FDR as well and get this, when Jews from Germany started showing up at Ellis Island, under FDR’s watch, fearing for their lives we said no and sent them back to Germany to later be killed. We knew what was up, but your progressive hero FDR sent the Jews to their deaths!
Liberals, they use facts sparingly because they never support their case! Seriously, they literally make things up and they are counting on the readers to be other idiotic liberals who never research anything and then have them run around passing off their made up crap as facts. When lies are repeated enough they become facts, sadly, and with Americans getting dumber by the day they never try to learn the truth. Just look at the myths about president Hoover, the depression was his entire fault, he never did anything to help people… really? The HOOVER Dam anyone? He invented the soup line, created the first bailout bank which later became the FDIC under FDR… in fact, FDR’s New Deal was an expansion on Hoover’s public works projects! Another post on that later…
Go, spread the word, the conservative movement is not even close to Nazism. Tell the truth, it is progressive liberal policies that are the problem and that have the most in common with Nazism. If you don’t believe what I wrote, remember I was summarizing a lot, do your own research, as you always should, and you will see… I love the truth and I love the facts.
Liberal's Love Calling Conservatives Nazi's, Are They Right? Nope
