Fascism

Whenever I think that the Left has reached the pinnacle of abject absurdity, I wake up to read the New York Times and find them proving me wrong once again. The same people who argue for an ideology of tolerance and unity will now be supporting their message by resorting to the thuggish tactics of the Brownshirt Fascists. Within the next few weeks, over 10,000 donors to Republican causes will re

The UK is becoming an Orwellian nightmare, the United States has the Patriot Act which will eventually push all human rights into the oubliette, and Italy has Berlusconi. The ‘heroes’ behind the mass slaughters of the so-called ‘war on terror’ are slowly but surely slipping into right-wing extremism. Nowhere is this more obvious than in [...]

The uproar over the political cartoon on the cover of the New Yorker, depicting Michelle and Barack Obama, is simply ridiculous. After all, this is just a cartoon. The immediate denouncement of the editorial cartoon by both political camps and the media serves as a warning bell to those career lampoonists who may be tempted to express themselves in the future. Further it serves to suppress freed

At the moment that the "normal" police and military resources of the bourgeois dictatorship, together with their parliamentary screens, no longer suffice to hold society in a state of equilibrium -- the turn of the fascist regime arrives. Through the fascist agency, capitalism sets in motion the masses of the crazed petty bourgeoisie and the bands of declassed and demoralized lumpenproletariat --

When former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee stood in front of a book case that appeared like a cross on camera for a Christmas card video, the Baptist preacher was ripped to shreds.When Rep. Ron Paul saw Huckabee's video he said that it reminded him of the words of Sinclair Lewis: “When fascism comes to America, it’ll be wrapped in a flag and carrying a cross.” Even though P

Michael Ledeen - In 2002, I speculated that China may be something we have never seen before: a mature fascist state. Recent events there, especially the mass rage in response to Western criticism, seem to confirm that theory. More significantly, over the intervening six years China's leaders have consolidated their hold on the organs of control--political, economic and cultural. Instead of gradually embracing pluralism as many expected, China's corporatist elite has become even more entrenched. More...

Such words may actually boost support for radicals among Arab and Muslim audiences by giving them a veneer of religious credibility or by causing offense to moderates. Um, hello .

The result of the Italian parliamentary election has brought some interesting figures into power. Silvio Berlusconi aside (he alone is a phenomenon in modern politics), the governing coalition includes post-fascists and xenophobes that can easily be described as 'far right'.Berlusconi's ally in his new People of Freedom (PDL) party (party remains a dirty word in Italy) is the National Alliance (AN). The AN are the descendent of the Italian Social Movement (MSI), the neo-fascist party founded by supporters of Benito Mussolini in 1946 and named in reference to Mussolini's Italian Social Republic of 1943-45. To be blunt, Berlusconi is still in bed with neo-facists of the most genuine variety. Not until 2002 did the leader of the AN, Gianfranco Fini, eschew his claim that Mussolini was "the gr

From: Fascism Is Creepy The danger of fascism is its seemingly benign mechanisms of control - fear, conformity, the state's intermingling with religion and corporate enterprise - for keeping a populace in check, for making its people feel content with the way things are and never quick to protest occasional violations of human rights and infringements on their or another's liberties. The danger of fascism is its seemingly magical ability - through brilliant propaganda outlets like Fox News - to keep a people resigned to whatever the government does in their name, making them feel secure through its adventures in endless wars and policing the globe and the homeland. The other great thing about fascism is its capacity for supporting, even indulging, denial on the most massive scale

Last night at a film festival a liberal tried telling me that Italian Fascism was the "nice, liberal fascism" while the Nazi's practiced "mean conservative fascism."

Is it right that because some lunatic US president decided to murder thousands of his own citizens in a politically expedient 'terrorist attack', we should be subject to absurd searches by overzealous security personnel at virtually every turn? Ridiculous restrictions on liquids in hand luggage on flights and having to take your shoes off because some mentally ill dropout decided to try to burn his shoes on an aircraft once. Searching looks by immigration officials at anyone who doesn't fit the 'norm'. For a single white man with a black adopted child, that is pretty much on every trip I make to the UK.This whole 911 bollocks was a green light to bureaucrats and petty-minded job-worths the world over. Has anyone read the standard Foreign Office bollocks on terrorism that is repeated in the

The chief "rival identity", of course, is that of conservatism, and Goldberg, a noisy conservative pundit, has as his stated agenda the need "to dismantle the granite-like assumption in our political culture that American conservatism is an offshoot or cousin of fascism." He makes it abundantly clear that when some dopey lefty calls George W. Bush (or, for that matter, Jonah Goldberg) a fascist it really grates his cheese, and so he has set out to even the libellous score. He has taken it upon himself to make the case that fascism really has its antecedents on the left - that the American Progressive movement "was a sister movement of fascism." He shows that many American progressives in the 1920s, and even into the 1930s, expressed admiration for aspects of Italian or German society - Lin

In surfing the internet today a headline caught my eye Action, adventure and atheism? ‘Compass’ meets some opposition. It was a short article about the new movie The Golden Compass. The title pretty much tells the story but what I found the most interesting were the 164 comments! I was jealous, if only I could get my readers to comment like that!! As I read the comments a common theme surfaced that I have seen a thousand times, so I decided to respond, then I realized I should share it here since I am standing up for what I see as justice and the little guy…read on and let me know what you think…in a comment! The commenters are divided into those who agree with the article: I think the magic stuff as a whole is crossing over the black and white and going too gray for kids and parents…be careful that we teach them to not believe or act on magical/witchcraft later on…it is real and can be real bad for kids, nightmares, etc… This by far r

Folks!On the 20th of November 2006, MalaysiaKini featured a very interesting story regarding fascism. The story was written by K Shan, a well known human rights activist.K Shan in his story tried to bring the attention of readers to this fine article originally written by Dr. Laurence W. Britt and published by the Free Inquiry Magazine in 2003. Dr. Laurence W. Britt was fascinated with the world's well known dictators such as Hitler and Mussolini. In his fascination, he discovered that dictators and fascist regimes have some common characteristics and traits. He has discovered 14 and for the sake of sharing, I have listed it down for you folks out there:"1. Powerful and continuing expressions of nationalism. From the prominent displays of flags and bunting to the ubiquitous lapel pins, the fervor to show patriotic nationalism, both on the part of the regime itself and of citizens caught up in its frenzy, was always obvious. Catchy slogans, pride in the military, and demands for uni

Jonah Goldberg, the conservative Los Angeles Times and syndicated columnist, has been working on a book called "Liberal Fascism."

First off, the Seminal is Protesting in Professional Attire today in cities around the nation. Come and join us! A UN representative has called the global overemphasis on biofuels a “crime against humanity,” saying it seriously threatens global food supplies and prices. Nobel Prize-winning scientist James Watson has decided to retire amid denunciations for his comments about the intelligence of black people. Peace talks scheduled to begin today in Libya between rival factions in Darfur are delayed because two main rebel groups decided not to show. “The US army says as many as 20% of its soldiers and marines have suffered ‘mild traumatic brain injury’ (mTBI) from blows to the head or shockwaves caused by explosions.

1.Islamo-Fascism (!) Awareness Week (IFWK) according to its neo-conservative organizers, is a national effort to create awareness about Islamo-Fascist Jihad, which in reality contains how much truth is open to debate. It is currently being observed in university and college campuses across US during October 22-26. Like other schools across the country, UCLA is also hosting the IslamoFascism program this week with mixed view points and codemnation from student govt.Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week is the brainchild of David Horowitz. Horowitz, president of the David Horowitz Freedom Center (previously the Center for the Study of Popular Culture) editor-in-chief of FrontPageMag.com, and founder of Students for Academic Freedom, is, of course, a former leading New Leftist who has found fame and fortune on the extreme right and has done particularly well since 9/11 when he got in on the “Islamo-Fascist” ground floor.

It’s just getting harder to keep track of all those holidays. I mean, is Sweetest Day which just occurred a real holiday or just an excuse to sell more candies and cards. Now I learn that this is Islamo-Fascism Awarness Week. Is this a real holiday, or just an excuse to sell more right wing paranoia? Does this sound just a little bit too much like Big Brother warning us about the enemies in Eurasia–or is Eastasia the enemy this month? Might spreading hysteria like this be exactly what the terrorists want to achieve? I certainly don’t mean to say that this is not a threat we should not be aware of. There’s no question that there are people who would like to kill us or destroy our way of life. It’s just that for those of us who lived through the Cold War, in which we faced an adversary who wanted to kill us or destroy our way of life, and had nuclear weapons pointed right at us, the jingoism from the right wing seems a bit excessive. I would also take this a

Just some food for thought.The 14 characteristics of fascismHe makes a great case. You have to wonder how this period of our history will be seen around the world 100 years from now.

Over the past few years, terrorist threats have dominated our public consciousness. But a more sinister, subtle threat has emerged: A growing trend toward American Fascism. And many feel that this is the greatest danger to the American way of life in the history of our nation.This article mentions how the government is teaming with corporations to bring America into an ever-increasing state of Fascism. A Communist government controls the corporations. A Fascist government is controlled by corporations. According to Naomi Klein, author of The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, our government is using disasters as a way to manipulate the public. Whenever tragedy strikes, changes are put into effect to increase privatization and profitability. Homeland security, schools, housing, and foreign military affairs (specifically, the Blackwater economy in Iraq) are all cited as areas in which this negative privitization has occurred.Many feel that George Bush is to blame, as

Naomi Wolf of The Guardian wrote this article in April 2007. You must read it and pass it on to every American you know.In the article, she describes ten steps that have been taken by governments in the past that shifted from a democracy to a fascist dictatorship. Here are the 10 criteria and a quick review of how our country currently fits. (Although I'm doing this summary, you really must read her article). This is why we need to act now:1) A terrifying internal and external enemy is invokedWe must fear "terrorists" and "enemy combatants".We are told that they are in our country plotting to kill us. They are in the Middle East plotting to kill us. They are in Europe plotting to kill us.We must give the Bush administration unprecedented power to defeat these unprecedented enemies.2) A prison system is created outside the rule of law. We have secret prisons in Iraq and Afghanistan and, of course, Guantanamo Bay.Those are just the one's we know about.3) A "thug caste" is created to sc

How come nobody is condemning this?Carlos Arredondo, 47 year old father of two sons, arrived in the nation’s capitol on Monday, 09/10/07 to share a memorial he has made to honor for his eldest son, Alex. Carlos has visited thirty of the United States with the traveling memorial to his son Alexander. Lcpl. Alexander S. Arredondo, USMC was killed on 08/25/04. He was 20 years and 20 days old. The memorial consists of a casket, poster- size photographs of Alex when he graduated from boot camp, before his second tour in Iraq, lying in state at his wake, and a photo of Alex with his younger brother Brian.Saturday, September 15, 2007 consisted of first a rally, a march towards the capitol and then a die-in. Carlos pulled the memorial along the march route approaching the rotunda near the capitol building.

Bertrand Russell, in hisWisdom of the West, put forward a simple thesis. Western Civilization is essentially Greek civilization.There is no civilization but the Greek in which a philosophic movement goeshand in hand with a scientific tradition. It is this that gives the Greek enterprise its peculiar scope; it is this dual tradition that hasshaped the civilization of the west.--Bertrand Russell, Wisdom of the WestIn support of his thesis, Russell points to the authoritarian,theocratic natures of earlier civilizations --Egypt and Babylonia.Religion, Russell stated, seems inconsistent with the Greek spirit offree inquiry typified most famously by Socrates and the Platonictradition that followed. It is because Greek civilization was primarilysecular, Russell believed, that the spirit of "free inquiry" took rootin the west. This spirit, he believed, was incompatible with bothauthoritarianism and religion itself.A Renaissance of Western Civilization was associated with the pre-eminence of Lo

Today we have a post from Peace Tree contributing author, W. Christopher Epler. Fascism Is The Acting Out Of Delusion Behind all this chaos and hate is delusion. We human beings just refuse to grow up and the essence of fascism is merely institutionalized fear. But fear of what? Fear of truth -- fear of "reality". Let's take a fun/serious philosophical example. How many of us really take it in that when a tree falls in the forest, and there's no one around, there isn't any sound? Of course, we have to rephrase it a bit and say that when a tree falls in a forest and there's no "auditory nervous systems" around (human or otherwise), there isn't any sound. However, this self evident answer utterly redefines the human condition! It opens us to realities beyond the consensus scheme of things (i.e., "consensus reality"). Consensus reality is our living our life from place. The only problem is that it's a form of intelligence suicide. Take the fa

For today's Americans, it could signify our own more gradual and insidious turn toward authoritarian rule. That is why Lewis's darkly funny but grim fable of an authoritarian coup achieved through a democratic election still resonates today along with all the eerie parallels between what he imagined then and what we live with now. Americans today have reason to doubt the future of democracy and the rule of l

OK, we did the political thing. Progressives and liberals got the Congress back in 2006 and kudos to us! But three desperately important (and related) things we also learned during these six horror show Bush/Republican years are: (l.) Politics ain't enough! Indeed, wishful thinking notwithstanding, politics is now more part of the problem than the solution to our dying Constitutional Republic. (2.) We've also realized with absolute certainty that the United States of America is a Dictatorship of the Rich. It is time to stop all the lies, games, and propaganda crap. FACT: less of 2% of our country is making fools and servants out of all of the rest of us. However, Bush allowed the vampire rich to come too far out into the daylight, and now we can see blood on the lips of these astronomically ric

It is being uploaded to Google Video for the first time during the evening of October 19-20th, 2006. Aaron has listened to everyone's feedback - volunteers, students, lovers of freedom & liberty, young and old alike - and, true to his word, he is putting this up "for free" on Google Video knowing that the hour has come for Americans to either be awakened to restore the Republic or be swept aside by the dark global forces of fascism that seeks to enslave mankind. AFTF's main focus comes in a statement with six very simple words: SHUT DOWN THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM!!

Last January, I already blamed the First Amendment for allowing the American National Socialist Movement (a.k.a. America's Nazi Party) to exist an even become a sponsor for the Adopt-A-Highway program .Now Toledo, OH allowed this mob to march proudly through the city, provoquing a riot and even a curfew. As a result, more publicity than these Nazis could ever dream of - not to mention my blogules. When I said "let's face it, they're fascists" last year, I was just noticing the similarity between the Mussolini definition of fascism and the Bush Administration's (ab/mis/)use of power. I knew Dubya's reelection would free the darkest sides of Amerika but never did I expect America's Nazi Party to become that bold. Just a few days ago, Bush would mention for the first time "fascist islamists / fascist islamism". He didn't invent the expression, which perfectly suits the worst part of radical islamists. But still it shocked me to hear Bush using this kind of vocabulary at this
