this comment was made in defence of another patsoc saying henry ford was a socialist
I remember seeing a nazi propaganda poster that opposed Marxism on the bizarre grounds that it was the "guardian angel of capitalism". Meanwhile they privatized everything when they came to power. What a fucking joke. :youre-awful:
From Blackshirts and Reds by Parenti:
Fascist doctrine stresses monistic values: Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuehrer (one people, one rule, one leader). The people are no longer to be concerned with class divisions but must see themselves as part of a harmonious whole, rich and poor as one, a view that supports the economic status quo by cloaking the ongoing system of class exploitation. This is in contrast to a left agenda that advocates the articulation of popular demands and a sharpened awareness of social injustice and class struggle. This monism is buttressed by atavistic appeals to the mythical roots of the people. For Mussolini, it was the grandeur that was Rome; for Hitler, the ancient Volk. A play written by a pro-Nazi, Hans Jorst, entitled Schlageter and performed widely throughout Germany soon after the Nazis seized power (Hitler attended the opening night in Berlin) pits Volk mysticism against class politics.The enthusiastic August is talking to his father, Schneider:
August: You won't believe it, Papa but .. . the young people don't pay much attention to these old slogans anymore . . . the class struggle is dying out.
Schneider: So, and what do you have then?
August: The Volk community.
Schneider: And that's a slogan?
August: No, it's an experience!
Schneider: My God, our class struggle, our strikes, they weren't an experience, eh? Socialism, the International, were they fantasies maybe?
August: They were necessary, but . . . they are historical experiences.
Schneider: So, and the future therefore will have your Volk community. Tell me how do you actually envision it? Poor, rich, healthy, upper, lower, all this ceases with you, eh? . . .
August: Look, Papa, upper, lower, poor, rich, that always exists. It is only the importance one places on that question that's decisive. To us life is not chopped up into working hours and furnished with price charts. Rather, we believe in human existence as a whole. None of us regards making money as the most important thing; we want to serve. The individual is a corpuscle in the bloodstream of his people.
The son's comments are revealing: "the class struggle is dying out." Papa's concern about the abuses of class power and class injustice is facilely dismissed as just a frame of mind with no objective reality. It is even falsely equated with a crass concern for money.
Well, they might have actually got what they deserved, at least if they were in the eastern part of Germany. :stalin-gun-1::pavlichenko:

To be fair, the guardian here is labeled with an SPD hat, and boy howdy when rubber hit the road they chose capitalism
you do not under any circumstances have to hand it to the makers of that propaganda poster :dril:
I won't hand it to em, if anything the SPD gave the traction the nazis needed to rise in the 20s
There's a lot to unpack before you even get to the tweet. What do the emojis mean, what's the significance of 2036, and what is up with the profile pic? This person just radiates being extremely online.
...why do they think taking over the CPUSA would be enough to launch the revolution? How powerful do they think CPUSA is?
presumably their first order of business is getting hired by the FBI
aspires to do a hostile takeover of the CPUSA by 2036
:fedposting::stalin-gun-1::fedposting:
socialism is the mode of production where you are a capitalist accruing profit by extracting the surplus value of your workers :galaxy-brain:
“Treat these terms scientifically”….anyway Hitler was socialist
This is what happens when you don’t read theory, or even a high school level history book
patsocs are natsocs
"patriotic socialists" who think socialists would win if they were "socially conservative, fiscally socialist," and tried to appeal to the bigoted majority by embracing the pageantry of patriotism, nationalism, cishet and white chauvinism, etc.
twitter nazis whose parents were libs instead of evangelical christians
The mind of a patsoc is a curious thing
Make one man weep, make another man sing
Why does he have an ape emoji? Please tell me it's not some Wall Street Bets thing.
No, it's because Haz's community uses apes and suns as a symbol of their community
