Seen in the comment thread of the Milo posting linked here. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.

I think nazism and communism and socialism are all despicable. All there's have killed MILLIONS and they should all be shunned and called out for what they are: systems of government that restrict liberty.

Unfortunately we outwardly applaud socialists (an avowed socialist was almost the Democratic Party nominee in 2016) as 'caring' and 'defenders of the little guy'.

Instead of the media's current broad-brush stroke where they paint everyone on the right as nazi's/alt-right. Why not allow the nazi party to reform in the United States. At least then you'll know who the enemy is, you won't have to assume everyone on the right is a fascist.

I'd love to hear your thoughts below.

Madison Square Garden, 1934. Worth remembering.

❝Just a heads up to those who sympathize with communism: we're friends during peace, don't get me wrong, but I won't hesitate to put you on your knees and eject two in the back of your stupid fucking head during your "revolution". I am sick of that ideology rotting away Western values like free speech and crippling academia, media, politics, and individual freedoms with hyperbole and violence.

Make no mistake, this is not a threat. It's a response and a warning to people like you that have permeated false narratives and hysteria that give way to unjustifiable violence against people like me for whom you've deemed a thought criminal. You are the useful idiots being exploited by the Leftist elite and their corporate owned news outlets to either take part of or support the unprovoked violence and property damage committed by groups such as Antifa. The Left has easily manipulated you into actually believing that Nazism is a real threat in a country that not only destroyed fascism but celebrates killing Nazis in all forms of media, and anyone that doesn't agree with your views are called bigots and therefore because they've committed wrongthink you believe you're justified in assaulting others. I'm not a fucking bigot. I'm not a fucking Nazi. Yet I've been labeled as such among other friends who are sick of being labeled for what we are not simply because we defend free speech.

It seems that many people don't quite understand that defending the right to free expression is not the same as defending the views being expressed. The First Amendment doesn't exist to protect the speech you want to hear but to protect speech you don't want to hear. It's there to protect individuals from authoritarian pieces of shit who want to criminalize and punish speech and ideas. If you think bad ideas should be met with government oppression and violence then your ethics are fucked up.

However, it's unlikely that there will be such a violent revolution by people who read more Harry Potter than Orwell. These are mostly far Left and Right skirmishes of identity politics bullshit. Communists and Nazis/KKK are just different sides of the same coin, it's just that communism is so entrenched in almost all important aspects of Western society like academia where they propagate and program young minds to accept communism and deny the harm it's done that it's ridiculous to say both communism and racist ideologies are the same in terms of societal acceptance and impact. That simply isn't true.

All that said, the real ideological war is being waged by people like Gad Saad, Dave Rubin, Jordan Peterson, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Ben Shapiro, Christina Hoff Sommers, and many others – not far leaning identity politic assholes like Richard Spencer or Shaun King. The people out there today fighting each other have more in common in terms of forceful ideology than they realize and they can all fuck off at the end of the day.

What I believe in is capitalism, individual freedoms, and property rights because they have no component that uses force or propagates identity first before basic human rights and protections. It's something I deeply support. Fuck you, fuck your group, fuck your ideology, and fuck your identity.

But my position still stands. I will gut you and hang you by a telephone pole if you invade my space with intentions of harming me or anyone I care about. I have all the military training for urban warfare and I'm a qualified sharpshooter. I will shoot you on sight or cut your throat if shit pops off because your ideology is just as bad as Nazism yet you've been given a free pass for far too long though you stand on the bodies of 100 million victims of communism.

And just to cap this off for anyone wondering why I haven't been vocal about my hatred for Nazis – I did that for 20 years and I paid my dues. In fact, this entire country has done nothing but mock real racism into a fringe part of society. Meanwhile, terrible ideologies no different than Nazism were overlooked allowing them to spread far like the cancer they are and that's why this is a problem to be met with peaceful discourse and a stern warning that helicopters are idling in the distance.❞
