OPINION: A Clearer Look At What is Fascism vs. Communism & Where Do We Fit In?
Submitted by George McClellan
Both Fascism and Communism are by their very nature just pure evil. But whats the difference between em? Very little, actually! Both are totalitarian and disregard human life! To succeed, a Fascist government must control all means of production but not necessarily ownership of those means of production. Industrial and agriculture producers, for example, can continue to own their factories and farms and earn profits, they simply must produce what the State demands from them and in the quantities needed. In the Fascist state, industrial cooperation is purchased but backed by the States ability to impose choking taxes, enact rules and regulations that stifle production, limit inventory resources of production and of course, employ the power of arrest. That was the epitome of the Nazis’ Military-Industrial complex.
Mousilinis fascist Italy not withstanding, the best example of a fascist state was Nazi Germany from the 1930s to its demise in the 1945. In Germany, the State (Hitler) wanted tanks, cannons, guns and airplanes and got em in copious quantities. Good stuff too. Producers benefitted financially and until the end, government and industry coexisted as happy conspirators. To cooperate with the party of National Socialism, big business (including non-German companies like IBM) profited by contributing to Hitler’s war machine. That means they were either frightened to not cooperate, or agreed with the principles of National Socialism, or were simply greedy enjoying the huge profits they made from that cooperation despite the growing human misery inflicted by the party of National Socialism. Once the system was firmly established, the odious apparatus of the Nazi police state, the Gestapo and SS was created to enforced all edicts the Leader demanded. No one was exempt!
The Communist model is best illustrated by the former Soviet Union (Russia) that, after the October 1917 revolution, as Communist government policy, confiscated to the State, all private property, farms, factories and means of production including labor, to start their new Socialist utopia. They eliminated the Russian middle class, mostly farmers and small merchants, by land confiscation that starved several million former small farm owners and farm laborers to death, while demanding unachievable production quotas in five year plan increments. To sustain their control, like Hitlers police state, Lenin created an NKVD, later KGB police state where surveillance, wire taps and paid informants were extensively employed to protect the State. A veil of fear fell over the societies of both Germany and Russia.
Our current best example of a truly wicked socialist police state is todays Communist China. After WWII, Chairman Mao started Chinas journey to utopia by copying the former Soviet Unions brand of Lenins Communism, ie: Power comes out of the barrel of a gun! China struggled miserably for decades failing to meet production goals, especially for rice and iron and China remained a hermit state until Richard Nixon opened the door to Chinas economic salvation. The Chineses problem is that abandoning Marx-Lenin and Maos teachings as nearly unworkable when practiced openly, they cracked open Pandoras Box of Capitalism that showed smarter Chineses leaders how to financially sustain the CCPs dream of world hegemony. China sent their children to Western colleges and universities for technical education, invested in and spied on, Western businesses stealing new technologies, eased up on their own citizens ability to produce commercial wealth without the obvious meddling of the Communist Party, at the same time enlarging their police state to control any and all dissent from Party goals. Arrests, imprisonment and death are still employed against enemies of the State and, heres the best of all, bribe corrupt Western politicians to embrace Chinas vision of the future for a profit. Does Bidens crime family not immediately come to mind?
Chinas major problem today is its own population losing faith in the CCP. Youths with college degrees and no jobs, unfulfilled CPP promises to have housing for everyone, rising taxes, closing down of commercial businesses due to Covid 19 excesses, disillusioned youths demonstrating on the streets of every city demanding the Premier Ji step down and an unacceptable rise in suicides of Chinas educated class.
So, using those political parameters where do you think America is now headed? Open borders for example is no accident, its a deliberate policy to dilute America’s conservative voting rolls by enlarging the Democrat’s base, change the demographics of America’s population from White Europeans that made America great, to a low class of third world peasants who have no idea how to survive short of a hand out for a welfare check or a hand out with a gun in it. Is Bidens weaponized FBI becoming like Chinas police surveillance state? Yes, I believe it is!
What does our Socialist Democrat party anticipate for America’s future? They want a subservient and obedient population, attentative to bureaucratic madates, basically uneducated except for indoctrinated hatred of America and all it stands for, certainly unarmed lest some nut case gets it in his mind to shoot a Democrat politician and, give up the comforts of life, like mobility the gas powered automobile affords, give up summer air conditioning, winter heat and the electric toaster, all to save the planet.
At what point did normal thinking Americans with innate common sense, agree with the Leftists that were all going to die in ten years if we dont pay a carbon tax to the government and eliminate all carbon energy sources and accept renewable ones? Climate change (weather), the driving force of America’s fascism, must be the fault of those awful producers of oil, gas and coal and it must be ended at once. Now, we have minor tyrants, like governors of California and fifteen other Blue States, on their own initiative, demanding the total elimination of gas and diesel operated vehicles so that Americans are forced to purchase expensive unaffordable electric vehicles if they want to go anywhere at all.
Our present Democrat government, you know, Joe Biden — the frauds, has no foreign policy skills whatsoever. Bidens draining what money and weapons we do not have to support a proxy war against Russia while ignoring the coming needs the China military threat presents to Taiwan But, what do we expect from a paid agent of the CCP? Biden’s open borders policy is ignoring the vast import of dangerous drugs like Chinese fentanyl, cocaine, etc. as well as foreign spies, assassins and criminals hidden among the thousands of peasants pouring across our southern border.
Biden encourages the false belief that Trump supporters are semi-fascists which proves the point that Democrats always accuse their opponents of doing exactly what they do. Bidens government is a clear and present danger to America and the free world. Neither can we forgive or forget the Democrats years of pushing child murder by abortions, and now their criminal push of transgenderism on our unsuspecting little children.
Were in trouble folks if this is allowed to continue. November 2022 is election time. All care must be taken to observe the Democrats vote counting efforts and not be distracted because its beyond thinking that another two years of Democrats control of Congress could possibly be acceptable. They will cheat to win. Believe it! If they do, were done.
Remember, Freedom is the goal, the Constitution is the way. Now, go get em! (31Aug22)
