    They got you! Authoritarians LOVE rebranding and confusing language, calling themself democratic people republic. Or calling themself national socialists depsite murdering the disabled! It makes no sense and they love doing it, because it confuses people like you!

    • Yeah I ain’t confused. I recommend reading some history books related to the I development of said ideologies. Socialism is an economic system it has nothing to do with mortality or empathy or right or wrong.

      Its an excellent thing to support if ur a populist as the majority under any system will have less wealth than the minority (its an expect mathematical distribution u see it everywhere) so collecting votes from the many while disposing of the few is the strategy of socialism. This of course slots in very conveniently with the ideas of eugenics and sacrifice the few undesirables to make the lives of the majority better. Same concept different context.

      I believe you my friend are the one who has been got by populist left wing talking points without applying critical thinking.

      You are right fascists love changing and confusing language. Now who in america is doing that kind of thing at the moment cos it sure seems like the left is the one playing the word games.

        Yes you are confused. Fascism is not “fundamentally a left wing ideology” because they were friendly with the Nazis. Fascism was right authoritarianism, NSDAP (Nazis) was right authoritariansim. The Nazis were not a left party. You are completely confused by the “socialist” part in the name. Which they intentionally used to confuse. The term “socialist” was used for propaganda, to attract workers, but their policies were not socialist but were right-wing nationalist, authoritarian, racist. They used “socialist” to mean state control of certain aspects, but not collective ownership, and they opposed Marxist socialism.

        80 year old propaganda still confusing you. What kind of books you reading? I’m curious.
