Well, it certainly resulted in the brutal premature deaths of many tens of millions of people in the last century. But maybe they weren’t doing it quite right. We’ll just have to keep trying until they get it right. For the children.

What I’ve been thinking for years now: how the “liberal” Hive has made “hate,” as in “hate speech.” a a synonym for “pro-freedom” and “anti-statist.” So in some weird Orwellian way, hating liberty and wanting to coerce everyone at gun point is “love,” I suppose.
Glad the writer mentioned Rummel and democide. If you want to identify a particularly stupid and/or vicious statist, ask him or her about democide. They’ll either deny it or dodge it.

The NAZI weren’t really socialists. The name was just a fake out like the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. We all know North Korea isn’t Democratic. The Democratic Socialists of America are like the NAZI, the socialist part of the name isn’t socialism socialism. And the DSA aren’t like the DPRK because the Democratic part isn’t a fake out.
Ummm, they controlled all aspects of life, including the economy, universal health care, enforced conformity in all social matters (arts, politics). They controlled the press and had massive propaganda efforts, just like the Soviets (and even FDR’s NRA, which had nothing to do with rifles). They outlawed unions, just like the Soviets. They were even the first truly “green” government, going so far as to promoting vegetarianism. They promoted many fashonable progressive ideas, such as eugenics, which were being lauded by Wells, Shaw and Sanger at the time. If they weren’t socialists, they sure did a good job of faking it, including gulags and mass killings. Basically, the only difference between international socialism and national socialism was the prefix “inter”.
If you follow Wodun’s comments in general, (s)he was pretty clearly being sarcastic.
Well, you have better telepathic powers than I do. The problem is, you can see the exact same arguments given with a straight face on college campuses any day.
I only took one legal scholars course in college and it was on Poe’s Law.

No, the NAZI fought the socialists, so they can’t be socialists. Just ask Trotsky.
