The difference between Communism and Fascism

[Dutch Uncle]

Is that how many Republicans see Democrats?

Just the 21st Century Democrats.

In the past they saw them like like hippy-dippy tree huggers but after the Soviet Union imploded the Republicans began transferring their "Red Scare" fears from fucking Russians to Democrats.

Since no one fears pot-smoking bleeding hearts, the Republicans had to demonize them into Socialists...which wasn't too hard given their politics. LOL

Translation: I refuse to answer on the grounds I will incriminate myself.

Sybil, clearly you are not a well person.

Meanwhile, back on the subject of authoritarian assholes, pedophiles and cocksuckers there's this:

Word stuffing. Sybil isn't here. Psychoquackery. TDS. Trump is not a socialist. Trolling. No argument presented.

All the memes mean shit.
I pretty much hate memes anyway,
my being slim in the sense of humor department.

The reality couldn't be more obvious or serious.
People whose core values barely overlap at all will never get along trying to share the same government and laws.

An America absent the red states
would have a more comprehensive public sector / social safety net
and a more regulated private sector protecting consumers and workers,
and would be a more acceptable place to live for people with highly sophisticated and civilized values.

Another America absent the blue states would allow the "civil liberties" that less educated (and educatable), more primitve people consider valuable.

We presently have an America that should never have been
were it not for the ill-advised effort to forge one nation from thirteen suddenly independent
and totally incompatible colonies in the late 18th century.

Our present constitution, written by apparent illiterates,
gives far too much political representation, relative to their numbers, to rural, conservative, and afflicted by religious superstition rubes.

Having the best, most abundant tract of real estate on the planet allowed this ill-conceived nation to hang in there for far longer that it otherwise might have.
That's over now. We're on the precipice of full blown dystopia now.
The all-consuming hatred is both palpable and totally understandable.

Sybil, you can barely speak for yourself.

Sybil isn't here.

 

[Into the Night]

Visually, rather a good way to put it.

 

[AProudLefty]

Sybil isn't here.

Correct. One of your personalities called Into The Night is here.

 

[AProudLefty]

I don't get it. I guess I am slow as hell.

IBDa will do if you can't be bothered, Sybil.

I don't get it. I guess I am slow as hell.

Possibly. Fascism is Communism with a paper-thin transparent layer of "extra" over it to try and hide what it is that doesn't.

 

[AProudLefty]

No comment. Fascism is communism with a paper-thin transparent layer of "extra" over it to try and hide what it is that doesn't.

That's what I figured.

So Fascism just tries to blur the pictures we can clearly see? So the meme fails.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

I don't get it. I guess I am slow as hell.

That's because it doesn't make sense except to looney toons and drunks...of which I'm an expert!

He's saying fascism is simply a cover for communism which, of course, is idiotic.

The idiots who conflate communism and fascism hate to explain why the Third Reich hated the Soviets.

 

[NiftyNiblick]

The idiots who conflate communism and fascism hate to explain why the Third Reich hated the Soviets.

Is it an actual conflation,
or do said idiots understand the actual meaning of neither word,
but find them both equally convenient as descriptors of something that they don't like?

 

[Matt Dillon]

That's what I figured.

So Fascism just tries to blur the pictures we can clearly see? So the meme fails.

The left cannot meme or judge memes whatsoever. Too much derp on the brain or something.

IOW: Nice try, but no.

 

[AProudLefty]

The left cannot meme or judge memes whatsoever. Too much derp on the brain or something.

Since Communism has never been proven to work or existed, how the hell is Fascism trying to cover the fact that it's Communism?

Like I said, the meme failed spectacularly. In a Fascist nation, the nation is ruled with an iron fist.

Hitler didn't particularly want war with Britain.

Then why did he attack it????

In N. Africa the Germans only got involved because of Italian incompetence.

They still got involved!

Portions of Ukraine, Belorusssia, and in particular the Baltic states were considered German by Hitler.

They were headed to Moscow.

The Soviets also occupied half of Poland.

The Germans occupied France. Never part of Germany.

There was never a real plan by Germany to attack the United States, particularly by invasion.

Not true. Germany declared war on the United States in 1941. In 1942, plans were being made to invade the United States in force. Some German combatants DID manage to come ashore in the United States in both New York and in Florida. Hitler never got any further. He was already stretched thin invading everybody else.

The invasion of the Balkans and Greece was solely done because the Italians started a war with Greece,

They invaded Greece. Hitler was trying to export fascism and his empire to the world.

were losing, then the British got involved and sent an infantry division and a tank regiment to Greece.

They still invaded Greece. The reason is irrelevant.

That was sufficient provocation for Germany to invade Yugoslavia to get at Greece and kick the British out.

Why? Greece was never part of Germany. It was never part of Italy either.

Had none of that happened on Italy's part Germany would have left the Balkans and Greece alone.

You forget the Tripartite Pact. It's purpose was to export fascism by dictatorship to the world.

One of many variations in sci fi on that.

Countless.

In a Fascist nation, the nation is ruled with an iron fist.

And we're proving that in a nationj attempting democracy,
a huge factor of people show an unwillingness to be governed at all.
