Nazi’s

/in , , /by

The question being asked was, “Is MAGA the New Nazi Party?“

The responses were typical of the way some want to demonize those can’t dispute without sounding selfish and foolish. They approach the world with a strategy that says if I can’t get you to agree with me, I’ll get you to feel sorry for me.

On the surface, it’s frustrating because of the way the obvious truth is ignored in favor of catering to those who insist that because they’re uncomfortable they automatically qualify as a priority. They’re a casual spectator looking for a quick and easy way to be perceived as sophisticated and compassionate.

But there are others who are genuinely toxic. They embrace the idea that however flawed their rationale may be, if they can reduce those who they disagree with to the status of a villain, they are now no longer obligated to explain why their ideas don’t work, they can now simply “resist” those who oppose them.

Left Wing Violence

Even honest liberals have had to admit in recent weeks that left-wing terrorism exceeds rightwing terrorism. On September 23, no less an emblem of American liberalism than The Atlantic magazine admitted that fact in an article, based on a recent study, under the headline, “Left-Wing Terrorism Is On The Rise.”Less honest liberals, including members of Congress, have nevertheless persisted in denying this fact. Democrat congressman Seth Moulton reacted to a leftist’s assassination of the most prominent proponent of civil debate on the American Right by blaming the Right. He claimed that three-quarters of political violence in the United States comes from the Right, while only four percent is committed by the Left. That claim struck me as suspect, so I looked into just a few examples of left-to-right political violence. Consider the Covenant School massacre in Nashville, for instance, in which a transidentifying shooter murdered Christian children at school after leaving a manifesto outlining ideological motivations, such as gender ideology. That incident, according to authorities, lacked an ideological motive. The Black Lives Matter riots—overtly leftist demonstrations that left dozens of people dead and over a billion dollars’ worth of property damage—likewise fail to show up on registers of left-wing political violence.

Even an attack by Antifa operatives that targeted me personally for my conservative political views appeared in official records and data sets as nothing more than “obstructing law enforcement” on the rare occasion it appeared at all. It turns out the Left commits relatively little political violence when one does not count the political violence that the Left commits.

You can’t help but notice a common thread running through the talking points of the Democrat party. Same sex marriage, abortion, or a desire to transform our country into a socialist society all require a philosophy that perceives the individual as his own absolute.

  • I have the right to redefine marriage
  • I have the right to decide who lives and dies
  • I have the right to give away other people’s money

This is part of the reason why the “separation of church and state” is so often cited as a way to maintain the individual as the gauge by which all things are measured. Despite the context of the First Amendment being a safeguard to restrict government’s influence on Christianity, the Modern Day Democrat has invented a whole new perspective where the Bill of Rights was put in place to accommodate the person who wants to envision himself as his own bottom line and truth is whatever an individual wants to believe.

Of course, that isn’t an accurate interpretation of history, nor does it translate to a sustainable and coherent mindset. But the flaws there are inherent to that approach are not noticed when you’re able to successfully position yourself as a victim and anyone who disagrees with you as a villain.

This is the rationale that drives those who want to refer to President Trump as a tyrant and those who support him as Nazis. What’s really ironic is that those who are the most aggressive in leveling these kinds of accusations against the Republican party are the ones that resemble the Third Reich the most, given their control of the media and the violence they’ve exacted upon their political opponents (see sidebar).

Below is a response I wrote to the aforementioned question: “Is MAGA the New Nazi Party?“ No. MAGA is not the new Nazi party. The only way you can arrive at that conclusion is to not only take President Trump’s comments out of context, but you have to begin from a philosophical disposition that says the individual is his own absolute. In light of a situation that doesn’t exist, you have to believe yourself capable of speaking something into reality and then vilifying anyone with the capacity to reveal the lack of substance that characterizes your platform…

I read the “Donald Trump’s War on Free Speech & the Need for Systemic Resistance” article you cited. I’m assuming that is part of your response to my asking for specific actions done by the Trump administration that qualify him as a Nazi.

The article cites President Trump saying, “We took away the Freedom of Speech” as an example of how Trump is deploying a fascist approach to government.

But did you read the context of his comment? I did. Here’s what the President said: “Only days ago, Nick Sortor was assaulted in Portland by a flag burning mob and we’ve made it one-year penalty for inciting riots. We took the freedom of speech away because that’s been through the courts and the courts said, you have freedom of speech. But what has happened is when they burn a flag, it agitates and irritates crowds. They’ve never seen anything like it, on both sides, and you end up with riots. So we’re going on that basis. We’re looking at it from — not from the freedom of speech, which I always felt strongly about, but never past the courts. This is what they do, is they incite — when you burn an American flag, you incite tremendous violence.”

“Freedom of Speech,” in the context the President was using, was referring to a legal sounding tactic used to justify saying that you have license to say and do whatever you want, and not have to take responsibility for what occurs as a result. In that context, that’s not a “right,” that’s not even an excuse. It’s a tool a coward uses to distract attention away from the true intent and substance of his actions.

It’s interesting that among those who insist that the President is infringing on the right to free speech are those that are very quick to say, “Hate speech isn’t free speech.” Suddenly, censorship is appropriate when a moment ago it was considered unconstitutional.

Fact of the matter is, the things you want to say constitute Fascism on the part of the Republican party should be recognizable to you, given the way the Left has killed, censored, and imprisoned their political opponents, all in the name of resisting the “threat to democracy,” when it fact, it’s a resurrection of accountability.

The law is only as good as the truth and a court is only as good as the law.

I spent nine years in the USMC. Flag burning may be a form of free speech to you, but to anyone who’s ever made a sacrifice for what that flag stands for, it’s a toxic attack on the ones who gave their lives to defend the rights and principles you’re now using to desecrate their graves.

Every expert, every study, every poll, that you would cite to substantiate the idea that Trump is a Nazi, that his supporters are bigots, and that flag burning is a legitimate manifestation of free speech has as its fundamental starting the idea that the individual is his own absolute. Truth is therefore reduced to a personal preference and anyone who would dare dispute what you “believe,” is now a liar and a tyrant.

The law is only as good as the truth and a court is only as good as the law.

There were a number of subject matter experts who were insisting that the Jew was to blame for all of the problems facing Germany in the immediate aftermath of World War I. Thanks to the polls, studies, and conclusions published during that time, Hitler’s agenda was able to gain enough traction where it became a national battlecry.

You’re doing the same thing. In your feeble attempts to associate Trump and anyone who supports him as someone who would’ve endorsed the Holocaust, you’re promoting a paradigm that says a man can compete in female sports, marriage can be redefined, illegal immigrants can enter our country at will, trade deficits can be celebrated, etc., etc. And you’re promoting it using the same tactics the Nazis used to manipulate the populace leading up to World War II.

You are the very thing you claim to despise.
