Should America switch to sharia law?

You're as bad as Goebels with your socialist propaganda.

Mussolini was a hardcore Global Marxist, before he switched to National Marxism after WWI. Obama adopted the name of Mussolini's newspaper, FORWARD, as his campaign slogan. :palm:

1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism
Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.


3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

4. Supremacy of the Military
Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.

5. Rampant Sexism
The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy.


6. Controlled Mass Media
Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.

7. Obsession with National Security
Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.

8. Religion and Government are Intertwined
Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions.


9. Corporate Power is Protected
The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.

10. Labor Power is Suppressed
Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed .

11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts
Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts is openly attacked, and governments often refuse to fund the arts.

12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment
Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.


13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption
Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.

14. Fraudulent Elections
Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.

And yet Trump is following Goebbels' famous line: "If you tell a lie often enough, people will believe it."

Trump has not only studied Hitler's playbook -- literally -- he clearly pulled elements from it for his campaign. Find a scapegoat to rally the people (immigrants), rally the people with a distorted sense of nationalism (the core strength of Nazism), and push a series of lies and half-truths so that the populace will buy what you're selling.

People say that Hitler was a socialist, but they forget what Nazi Socialism was. I suggest that they read up on it. It was the opposite of Marxism or Communism.

Why not?

Several states are already on board with the death penalty, the means of execution is neither here nor there. Many people in the US would subscribe to the biblical doctrine of an eye for an eye, so chopping off hands of thieves and that would be ok too, presumably.

Take out the drinking thing and the pork dilemma and you're pretty much there already.

Charver!! Great to see you again. We sorely miss your humorous take on the issues. Hope you stick around awhile, the place is a laugh riot. :cry:

You believed Obama's LIES :dunno: You want to pretend that Obama didn't use that Goebel's tactic?

Hitler and Mussolini were both Socialist. They were only to the right of Global Marxism. Even Engels and Marx supported National Socialism (fascism) as a precursor to Global Marxism.

Wasn't Obama punished for telling a lie (or something which resembled a lie)? Where is Trump's punishment for spreading birtherism or any of the the million lies he has told throughout his miserable life? Oh right, you and your ilk rewarded him with the presidency.

National Socialism was an attempt to redefine socialism as an ethnic-nationalist movement, not unlike Trumpism.

Tax cuts are hardly the acts of a Socialist. Care to try again?

Damn good thing Bernie did not get elected then. Have you ever wondered why he stays in the whitest, most ethnically un-diverse state in this country?

No, and Obama told some whoppers of great importance ... the ACA is still in place, Syria is devastated, ISIS is now a varsity team. Obama is still worshiped by the Left as a god king.

Birtherism? It was Obama that first created the LIE that he was born in Kenya in his pamphlet. Then he was able to use his own lie to mock others for believing it. :palm:

WTF?

Mussolini, the father of fascism, looked upon Italian Jews as national citizens. :palm: But I'm glad you finally admit that the German Socialist Workers Party was ... Socialist ... and I thank you for that.

Notice that the Left still glorifies the White Aryan Nations, ... and condemns Israel. :palm:

But once again, I'm glad that you have confirmed your belief that the German Socialist Workers Party was Socialist, and I thank you for that.

The Socialist Democrats in the U.S. are extremely racist. First against Blacks, and now that they have made Blacks dependent on socialist gov't, they have switched to being racist against Whites.
