Steve McCann's "Eight Startling and Uncomfortable Ways the Democrat Party Emulates the Nazi Party" was just the tip of the National Socialist iceberg. The fascist far left have always had to lie to survive. They've always been on the wrong side of history, and the only way they can remain viable is by gaslighting people on a full-time basis. For decades, their biggest lie has been that the supposedly pro-freedom side of the political spectrum, imbued in the precepts of individual liberty and limited government, is somehow connected to totalitarian collectivist regimes that displayed the exact opposite of those values. Anyone who has debated leftists
-
Democrats and the Nazis were/are obsessed with gun confiscation.
-

-
The centralized collectivist control philosophy of the Democrat and Nazi parties is epitomized in the phrase "the Common Good" (Gemeinnutz vor Eigennutz in the original German).
-
Far-left fascists of the Democrat and Nazi parties see force as means to their political power.
-
Democrats and Nazis are proponents of single-party system
-
Democrats and Nazis are fascistic.
-
Democrats are striving for a totalitarian state structure and a single party like the Nazis.
— Father of Critical Theory, Theodor Adorno, Jewish exile, From his 1951 book entitled "Minima Moralia"
Why would a Jew, intelligent enough to predict the coming violence of WWII and flee from his country, write this right afterwards?
Adorno shows a major flaw in the "Paradox of Tolerance" (Karl Popper, "Open Society and Its Enemies" 1945):
The Adorno quote describes nothing about today's right and is identical to today's left (maybe a warning to the Jews).
The Popper quote describes followers from being kept from hearing the other side's argument (who today is doing this?).
The Popper quote describes the followers will answer arguments with "fists or pistols" (punch a Nazi, anyone?).
The Popper quote describes canceling, shouting down speakers, screaming into town hall microphones. Is the right doing this? Or is that the left?
It would appear that the left is using the Paradox of Tolerance as a Divine Right to punish their political enemies at will by declaring them "intolerant" and then ushering in predetermined social and cultural behavior that is historically well documented to be generally intolerable.
Additionally, isn't "abolishing Whiteness" kind of intolerant? Isn't calling "Whiteness a disease" kind of intolerant? (Does anybody honestly believe that by saying, "but, I'm a Jew!" will, in the end, solve the obvious problem of your pale complexion to those who believe this sort of stuff?)
Here's a particularly relevant quote underscoring that assertion from the same essay by Adorno:
The left's Herculean efforts to "not appear to be Nazis" has in effect put them historically shoulder to shoulder in the same behavioral pew.
