That’s right beg me to stop exposing you. Like I said you’re not a serious person, you’re a pathetic and childish worm.

This is far from perfect, but much more accurate to how political philosophies fall on a comparative spectrum:

We've already discussed this. It's useful in some respects, but just as fundamentally flawed in others.

Go ahead and continue to contradict yourself and talk in circles.

I like that one with ideologies labeled, Caplewood. Quite good.

Regardless, all idologies fall on a spectrum from total freedom to total enslavement and politics is just debating on how far we fall one way or another.

Substitute Jews for Capitalists and the two come together almost perfectly don’t they?

One uses race; one uses class as their ends to justify their means.

Try Eurocommunism. Ala Pierre Sémard.

And the line between fascism and socialism is very thin. Fascism is socialism plus the dictator. Even more, Hitler was just to the right of Stalin.

Disagree with me labeling Nazi's as socialists?

No. Disagreement is about Nazis being on the Right leg of the horseshoe. They and the Commies are both embedded in the left leg as extreme socialists.

What were those end goals?


See if you can tell the similarities here:


1) strict gun control
2) separation of church and state (removing prayer from school) or setting fire to churches and statues of the Virgin Mary.
3) banning private schools
4) Michelle Obama’s “from the cradle to career”
4) Mary Saenger’s eugenic vision
5) Environmental economic policies
6) anti- property rights
7) “the common good supersedes the private good.”
8) the state passes judgement on who produces what and how much
9) working for personal gain is punishable
10) distrust markets
11) Disbanding the family unit

I would put my money on all of them. But like I said before. You are blind. Blind that the same people you are advocating for would have the same EXACT beliefs as National Socialist German Workers' Party!


Every. Single. One. Of. Those. Hitler implemented. Every one. Cut from the same cloth and you are either smitten with communism, teachers have failed you or simple blind

There's a lot to unpack here.
