Socialism is the state doing what would otherwise be done by other than the state. And ALL countrys have a mix of socialism and capitalism, even HongKong before it was handed back to China, most obvious with the govt schools and cops etc. It even had some minimal welfare too. Britain has much more socialism than HK did, most obviously with the NHS. He did at least admit that he intended to end democracy, though, He didnt actually. And democracy has nothing to do with socialism either. and I think that socialism can only be fully implemented if people do not have the chance to vote against it. Its never fully implemented. That isnt even possible. It is never possible to have the govt do everything, most obviously with the ****ing that produces children. |

The difference between communism and fascism is that under fascism you would be expected to be rewarded by how hard you work. That utterly mangles the real story. Otherwise I can't see any difference. Then you need new glasses, BAD. One obvious difference is that the military isnt the state with communism. Both promote an authoritarian state. As you rightly say that is hardly a current socialist philosophy where your reward should be independent on how hard you work. That isnt what socialism is about. |

Just like democratic. After all, Turnip calls himself a Philosopher. I rest my case. I think one of the hardest things in history is to try to understand what people thought of Hitler in the 30's. Not really. They could see that everyone else had ****ed things up very comprehensively indeed, that the country was in very deep **** indeed economically and enough of them decided that he wasn't likely to be any worse and might do better to end up with enough of his party in the Reichstag. I'm sure he considered himself to be something of a socialist, And he clearly was that with lots of his policy stuff like the autobahns and doing what FDR did in the US, massive deficit spending which got both economys out of the Great Depression. Adolf's problem was that there was no way to pay for that and so the only way he could do anything about that was to engage in military adventurism. Even that worked a hell of a lot better than anyone else had managed before him in his country. His problem is that it all came completely unstuck eventually. as least as far as native Germans were concerned. It wasn't just native germans, it was also austrians etc too. Less so when it came to his plans for the disabled. Not just the disabled, all untermensh etc too. People didn't seem to be so keen to distance themselves from his ideas then. Because they were working very well indeed. It was only later that the **** hit the fan with them and by that time it was too late. But cleverer people than me seem still unable to understand what happened Plenty do. - I don't think I really have much of a chance, try as I might :-) True. |

Just like democratic. After all, Turnip calls himself a Philosopher. I rest my case. I think one of the hardest things in history is to try to understand what people thought of Hitler in the 30's. That is quite easy. The Great Depression started in 1929 and continued for most countries until the late 30's. There were no state benefits payable to anyone who was out of work. That wasn’t true of Germany or the USA either. We have also conveniently forgotten who invented and ran the banking system. You clearly don’t know who did that. They were vilified in much the same way bankers are today for the 2007/8 bank bailouts. 'they' were vilified long before the Great Depression. People lost their life saving and the blame was firmly placed on bankers at that time. Not in Germany, it was firmly placed on the allies that applied draconian reparations. In those days bankers were not a protected characteristic. Hitler had various socialist policies. And other policys like Keynesian deficit spending too. One of which was a Christian tradition that interest should not be charged, and that there should be no return on capital; where only labours were remunerated. Hitler never ever had any such policy. If Corbyn adopted those policies, who knows! On top of that Hitler spent his way out any economic disaster, Just like FDR did in the US. the opposite of austerity Yes, he wasn’t that stupid. and used the resource to arm Germany. And do a hell of a lot more than just that too. I'm sure he considered himself to be something of a socialist, as least as far as native Germans were concerned. He was very much a socialist Yes. and was voted in on that basis. Nope. He wasn’t in fact ever voted in. He never had a majority in the Reichstag and there was never a vote for Chancellor. Hindenburg APPOINTED him Chancellor. |

But cleverer people than me seem still unable to understand what happened - I don't think I really have much of a chance, try as I might Most people regarded Hitler as a lot better alternative than Communism or Bolshevism, which had destroyed Russia and its ruling class. At that time Communism was seen as part of 'the Jewish conspiracy' to foment dissent and wars and make profits out of it. Anti-Semitism was pretty rife, not helped by the clannishness ghetto-isation and refusal to integrate of the European Jewish communities. The problem with that is that Germany was arguably one of the most integrated Jewish communities. It was only when he developed delusions of Empire, invading his neighbours, that people got upset. They were very happy to see him and Mussolini trounce the commies in Spain and Italy. It was a pair of Italian communists that drew up the EU manifesto of course. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventotene_Manifesto Anyway, the point is simply this. More than a few people were more or less anti semitic - suspicious and distrustful of Jews, and so that part of Nazism wasn't seen as more than just a bit politically extreme. The Anti- Bolshevik sentiment was widely applauded, as was the patriotism and nationalism. Only when various political figures started getting murdered, and other countries started getting invaded did people begin to wonder, and then of course it was too late. I don't think you can get close to understanding the whole thing unless you spend time reading the causal literature of the time, and forming your own opinions on the attitudes and ideas of the people then, rather than taking the view of some historian - who perforce must needs introduce a 'new perspective that informs' in order to make his career. I can fully understand why people supported Hitler. And why people support Corbyn. And why Lefty****s are ****s. I don't excuse it though. |

Can you name any communist state where all are/were equal? You simply can't have it both ways. When did I say I could? You were quoting some supposed difference between fascism and communism. As if they defined them. I never said that any ideal could ever be put into practice. In some respects fascism is more honest as you rightly imply that under communism, as per George Orwell, some are more equal than others. Chip on shoulder comes to mind. Excuse me for expecting an understanding of principles on here. I should know better by now. My apologies, just that I never tried to imply that in any communist state anyone was equal. Perhaps we should rename them fascists' states after all? |

Are you suggesting the education system should teach people to ignore simple facts involving police and armed forces? I see the sate education system has let you down again.... No, I am suggest8ing nothing of te kind. I am suggesting that anyone who cannot understand the following : "you are unable to distinguish between the bottom of the hole, being half way down, or being halfway down and moving further..." Has an inadequate grasp of English, due to the state education system having abandoned English grammar and comprehension as a subject deemed worth studying. You misunderstand. I wasn't questioning whether that was an intelligible composition of words. I was asking whether it made sense to you to write that as a response to my post. I was simply pointing out that Britain, and many other countries, have been carrying out inter-service cooperation exercises for decades without anybody claiming we were coming under martial law. Your response seems to be completely unrelated to that. thats because you are stupid, or deliberetaly trolling I pointed out that 'descending into' something is not the same as being there already. I agree the article mentioned the cooperation of the police and armed forces and called it martial law. You have to be pretty thick not to notice that the police do work with the armed forces from time to time. If you call any working between police and the armed forces martial law, then the UK has been subject to martial law for a long time. The troll here is the one seeming to think that the police and armed forces never work together. |

I can fully understand why people supported Hitler. And why people support Corbyn. And why Lefty****s are ****s. I don't excuse it though. I thank you and Fredxxx for your responses. I could talk about this sort of stuff all day, but I don't think usenet is a great way to deal with it. You've clearly both studied more than me, yet I still maintain that /for most people/, Hitler's success is something of a mystery. The very mention of the name is too loaded for people to not believe that he tricked his way into power. Yet it is clear that he did not. One only has to watch Eva Braun's home movies at Berchtesgarten to see that that these are people who do not believe that they are in any way evil. Neither did Eichmann or Himmler and they were anyway. I think it's worth mentioning the paralysis induced by Germany's system of proportional representation as a major factor. Yes, that was certainly the reason why there was no majority govt and why Hindenburg chose to appoint Hitler Chancellor. There was one NSDAP founding member (whose name I can't remember) Strasser. who, when asked what they stand for, simply said 'the opposite of what there is today'. And that is a pretty succinct statement of what the NSDAP was about. I think many people feel that right now, especially in the US. I'm not convinced that it all that many today. The hyperinflation of 1923 has been mentioned, but this was got under control when required That is a separate matter to why some certainly did support Hitler. (I think it was allowed to run away in order to obfuscate the value of the currency at a time when they were paying reparations), Yes. and I'd be surprised if it was still a motivating political factor ten years later. It clearly was. The Great Depression, OTOH, certainly was. As for the anti-semitism, I think I read that even Jesse Owens was a last-minute stand-in for a Jewish athlete whom the Americans chose not to send for fear of upsetting Hitler. It's also odd that previously, Germany was something of a haven for Europe's Jews. It was indeed. But I don't know. Before WW2, there seem to be no great surprises in what happened. Afterwards, it seems hardly credible. Anyway, I'm wittering now :-) |

Are you suggesting the education system should teach people to ignore simple facts involving police and armed forces? I see the sate education system has let you down again....

Has an inadequate grasp of English, due to the state education system having abandoned English grammar and comprehension as a subject deemed worth studying. You misunderstand. I wasn't questioning whether that was an intelligible composition of words. I was asking whether it made sense to you to write that as a response to my post. I was simply pointing out that Britain, and many other countries, have been carrying out inter-service cooperation exercises for decades without anybody claiming we were coming under martial law. Your response seems to be completely unrelated to that. thats because you are stupid, or deliberetaly trolling I pointed out that 'descending into' something is not the same as being there already. I agree the article mentioned the cooperation of the police and armed forces and called it martial law. You have to be pretty thick not to notice that the police do work with the armed forces from time to time. If you call any working between police and the armed forces martial law, then the UK has been subject to martial law for a long time. The troll here is the one seeming to think that the police and armed forces never work together. When the armed forces are patrolling the streets, it is de facto martial law. |

And why people support Corbyn. And why Lefty****s are ****s. I don't excuse it though. I thank you and Fredxxx for your responses. I could talk about this sort of stuff all day, but I don't think usenet is a great way to deal with it. You've clearly both studied more than me, yet I still maintain that /for most people/, Hitler's success is something of a mystery. I've pointed out a couple of the factors that Hitler used very effectively to rouse people up. He was a very effective orator. He also used violence to bash the communists. I think the Nazis invented targeted political leafletting, No they didnt. Lots of that happened in Britain long before he was even born, usually call pamphletering. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pamphl...let_in_England making contradictory promises (high food prices to farmers/low food prices to everyone else) to various sections of the community. I also get the impression that the political atmosphere in general was fairly violent, and that's why people did not find it particularly surprising or alienating. The very mention of the name is too loaded for people to not believe that he tricked his way into power. Yet it is clear that he did not. In a way, he did. He certainly *politicked* his way in, and once he'd been appointed as Chancellor used that position to cement his power. He seems to have been the master of opportunity. I think it's worth mentioning the paralysis induced by Germany's system of proportional representation as a major factor. There was one NSDAP founding member (whose name I can't remember) who, when asked what they stand for, simply said 'the opposite of what there is today'. I think many people feel that right now, especially in the US. Well, the Nazis became the largest party but never had an absolute majority of the vote. You also have to remember that, although Germany had this wonderful written constitution, those responsible for guarding it (the army, police, judiciary) all hated it. Hence Hitler only getting 9 months for armed insurrection - treason, in fact. Another unfortunate factor - the Weimar Republic did not purge the judiciary. The hyperinflation of 1923 has been mentioned, but this was got under control when required (I think it was allowed to run away in order to obfuscate the value of the currency at a time when they were paying reparations), and I'd be surprised if it was still a motivating political factor ten years later. The Great Depression, OTOH, certainly was. It was got under control, but it ruined the middle classes and made them fodder for Hitler. |

And he did deliver on that hope, reviving the economy quite dramatically using absolutely classic Keynesian deficit spending, same as FDR did in the US. The problem for Germany was that there was no way to pay for that, the massive military machine had to be used. Of course they had little clue what would really happen & how. Just like no one else did as WW2 started. |

Hitler wasn’t even the leader of the party when that manifesto was written and the wording of it makes it abundantly clear that it wasn’t even a manifesto at all, proposing what the party would do if it was the govt. We already know he was appointed Chancellor. You stupidly ran the lie that he was VOTED IN. He wasn’t, he was APPOINTED by Hindenburg. And no manifesto was involved in that either. And Hitler never ever had any policy that deposits in banks would never be paid any interest either. Let alone that other mindless silly **** of yours at the top. Even a terminal ****wit such as yourself that all the elected party members did no labour in the Reichstag and were paid anyway. |

The Great Depression started in 1929 and continued for most countries until the late 30's. There were no state benefits payable to anyone who was out of work. We have also conveniently forgotten who invented and ran the banking system. They were vilified in much the same way bankers are today for the 2007/8 bank bailouts. People lost their life saving and the blame was firmly placed on bankers at that time. In those days bankers were not a protected characteristic. Hitler had various socialist policies. One of which was a Christian tradition that interest should not be charged, and that there should be no return on capital; where only labours were remunerated. If Corbyn adopted those policies, who knows! On top of that Hitler spent his way out any economic disaster, the opposite of austerity and used the resource to arm Germany. I'm sure he considered himself to be something of a socialist, as least as far as native Germans were concerned. He was very much a socialist and was voted in on that basis. I always understood the main reason he was voted in is he was the only one giving Germany a hope of being great, when it was in such poverty that many had nothing like enough to eat. AIUI he made no secret of his more lunatic views, but did have some smart insights in some respects, and thus people bought into his vision as one of hope. Of course they had little clue what would really happen & how. Well, he wrote it all down in Mein Kampf, so plenty of people had no excuse. He never said in Mein Kampf that he was going to occupy most of Europe or kill all the Jews he could either. Unlike in the Koran. The Koran never says anything even remotely like that, liar. |
