In Socialism, there is only room for one megalomaniac... Both killed the Jews, Conservatives, controlled religion, controlled the press, censored the people, killed off political opponents, used propaganda, brainwashed the young etc etc etc etc. They both invaded Poland and both planned on destroying each other. The only difference is they fought each other in the Spanish Civil War and each wanted to rule Europe.



Nazis are just Nationalist Leftists and Communists are Leftists.

Basically the same COMMUNISM

Stalin killed everyone who disliked him.

Mao killed everyone who disliked him.



FASCISM

Hitler killed everyone who disliked him.

Mussolini killed everyone who disliked him.



...Only Hitler and Benito did not call those they had executed "comrades."



I fail to see how each of these totalitarian regimes differ.

Sophistry doesn't alter reality. Progressivism , in all it's forms is a stepping stone toward the unlitmate goal of communism.Saying ,( owned by the people but run by the state or public property administered by the state ) is sophistry. People must run the state and those people are and will be a priviledged class; a political class; just as in any form of totalitarian govt. There are are the rulers and the ruled.PERIOD.

It's a simple case of understanding human nature , which the communist purist will not acknowledge, still slinging to the utopian theory without regard for human lust and greed. State control is state control regardless of the details. Communism doesn't believe in the individual .The individual is a threat to the collective and by extention the state.It requires people to out the state and the collective first in order to function, therefore competing ideas are a threat to that function. The same with any other form of totalitarianism. Free speech,free ideas, individualism, ALL that threatens state control and authority CANNOT be allowed. In short, the priviledged,political class has replaced the very types of (evil) leaderships that brought them to power by cloaking their intent with phrases like , (the workers united,public property for all,the peoples party) anything that diverts or alters the perception of the masses and gives them an enemy to feed the frustrations into. CONTROL OVER THE INDIVIDUAL, WILL ALWAYS CLASH WITH THE INDIVIDUAL WILL TO BE FREE. Me =we - I=us - mine = ours - etc.,etc. . Ithe systematic dissolution of private property and individual will and the implementation of public (STATE) propertty and free will to collective thought. SLAVERY OF THE MIND (education and propaganda) TO CONCEAL SLAVERY OF THE BODY -socialist democracies,communist theory,passive force (E.U. & U.N.).... OR.... SLAVERY OF MIND AND BODY THROUGH PROPAGANDA & OUTRIGHT FORCE AND INTIMIDATION -practical communism,nazism,fascism,theocratic (Islam) and secular ologarchies (E.U. & U.N)

The only differences between ANY of these ,is the amount and type of propaganda,education and force used to preserve the authority of the politcal class..... You can see this very clearly in the rise of far left liberals in America and the slow,but inexorable crawl towards a progressive form of government and the abandoning of a government restricted constitution in favor of government regulation and control and the creation of a political class instead of citizen government.



THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION IS THE ONLY FORM OF GOVERNMENT THAT TAKES ( HUMAN NATURE ) INTO ACOUNT AND PLACES RESTRICTIONS ON WHAT A COLLECTIVE OF PEOPLE ENCOMPASSING THE GOVERNMENT CAN AND CANNOT DO IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE INDIVIDUALS FROM THE NATURE OF PEOPLE TO OBTAIN & HOLD POWER.

The Differences are Technical and Trivial. In both case, the majority of the people will suffer under the power of the (police) state; with only a handful of power living in comfort (they're mainly government officials, government supporters, and wealthy party members). The state can tell you what to do, what to think, what to feel, and what to say. The only real difference is that fascism is honest with it's power and oppression while communism lies to you and tells you how they are on your side. Posted by: jerrytheanon Report Post

Two different stated purposes same effect. The ideal of communism is that the means of production to belong to the people. This inevitably requires the investiture of a handful of human beings with the direct control of this capital and the force which protects it. Barring peculiar conditions and selflessness these individuals out of necessity fall to the same cronyism and elitism that define the corporate fascist state. Report Post

The systems worked pretty much the same, and the ideologies share MUCH moer in common than people use to believe. 1. Anti-liberal. In both SU or Nazi-Germany there was no freedom.

2. Anti-kapitalist. Both systems and ideologies destroyed the free market and hated it for several reasons.

3. Big military spendings, big military importance and much focus on the army. Being a soldier is seen as very honorable.

4. Racism against rich people and people who don't follow their system (communism)

5. If you have a different opinion, you're screwed. The state controls your mind.

6. Off course, the state was all powerful and had a wide tentacle into one persons life.

7. Millions of people were killed because of it.

8 Propaganda and scaring the people with a false image of enemies.

9. Names. Socialism and National-Socialism

10. Anti-semitism. You'd be wrong if you think communism didn't hate the Jews. They are good traders and in favor of free market. Something especially communists try to annihilate.

It's a circle In theory communism and fascism are completely different however we live in a real world and the reality is that communism never works as a classless society. There is always an elite who oppress the masses just a fascism does. Just look at Stalin and Pol Pot. They were arguably worse dictators than fascists like Mussolini and Hitler. You shouldn't think of politics as a line with far left and far right. In reality politics is a circle with one side being the liberal centre and the other being totalitarian regimes which is essentially fascism AND communism. Report Post

Brain washed morons. "communism promotes non-violence and community as a means of making a society succeed" WTF? Fascism, Communism, and Socialism are kissing cousins and are the opposite of Liberty and Freedom. What part of history tells us that these ism's have been beneficial to humans? China, Russia, North Korea....Etc...Etc have murdered a few hundred million of its own citizen's in last 100 years. "Anyone who things Fascism and Communism are the same are utter idiots:" You should read more books of history instead those brain mushing university text books. Educated idiot?

It's very simple This link here will show in very intense detail of how the two are similar in that they both control the people. Http://constitutionalistnc.Tripod.Com/hitler-leftist/id8.Html , the link again goes into really good detail of how Communism the token far far left society is not that different when compared to Fascism, which is constantly hailed as a far right wing society. However that is a MYTH, the two aren't all that different, since they both end up controlling the life of the people someway somehow. Posted by: Marshall-Abarca Report Post
