'The mob mentality is irresistible to people with a desperate need to be popular, and are perennially afraid of getting a bloody nose on the playground of life. A tell-tale sign is the use of terms like “us” and “we” when they write, or speak…as these pronouns speak of popularity, of membership in the larger group…i.e. the mob.'

Ann forgot to mention it as being a means of getting attention as well as being a way of feeling that one belongs to something for people who otherwise get no attention in the real world and belong to nothing meaningful and constructive. Such people develop a vitriolic self-image of hatred towards themselves in the subconscious which in order to protect their ego, they direct outward at others, so when they despise others, other parties or ideology, they are really trying to avoid despising themselves.

Sort of like this.....

"People desperate for a badge of identity are highly susceptible to groupthink, in fierce need of a ‘guide,’ and, so, the “foolish, ignorant, and envious persons are freed from the sense of their insignificance and powerlessness.”
Le Bon, “The Crowd: A Study of The Popular Mind,” p.22.

Perfect description of Trump's fanatic base.

When the thread was started..

Conservatives have used communists as the bad guys for years now, and it seems they recently changed the bad guys from communists to fascists, and I wonder if the change was based on Trump's Russian connections?

"...communists as the bad guys for years now, and it seems they recently changed the bad guys from communists to fascists,..."

No they didn't.

You're just lying again.




Liberalism, communism, fascism.....differences without distinctions.

Your education continues:

In this classroom, we begin by explaining terms.

a. Liberal and Progressive and Democrat are used interchangeably in general parlance...And a 2012 Gallup poll found that 53 percent of Democrats and 39 percent of Americans more generally had a positive reaction to the word socialism.
Democrats, Republicans Diverge on Capitalism, Federal Gov't

Q.E.D.....Liberals are admitted socialists.


b. Even Marx admitted that true communism could not come about without revolution. So the statement -- "A communist is a socialist with a gun" can be accepted as a truism.
So....Liberals, Progressives, Socialists = Communists.



c. Nazis, falsely called Rightwing, are National Socialists....hence, Leftwing.
So....So....Liberals, Progressives, Communists, Socialists = Nazis.


d. Since Fascists and Nazis were allies,and basically the same....

...Liberals, Progressives, Communists, Socialists, Democrats.....and Fascists...peas in the same pod.


Any questions?

and,,,the Democratic Republic of North Korea is a rightist ran government, it says so in the name..

 

[PoliticalChic]

The Fascist Left has no higher demand than the silence of opposing voices.

Disagree with the left and it's contumely, loss of livelihood, and physical attack.




8. "Another intimidation tactic is for prosecutors to abuse their awesome powers in order to hound and frighten political opponents. The most terrifying example of this was the John Doe probe in Wisconsin. Democratic prosecutors in Milwaukee launched a bogus criminal campaign finance investigation into some 30 conservative groups that supported the public-sector union reforms championed by Governor Scott Walker. Wisconsin’s John Doe law gave these prosecutors the right to conduct this investigation in secret and to subject their individual targets to gag orders. Prosecutors secretly looked through these individuals’ financial records, bank accounts, and emails.

Prosecutors also conducted pre-dawn raids on some of their targets’ homes. In one horrifying instance, the target of such a raid was on an out-of-town trip with his wife, and their teenage son was home alone. Law enforcement came into the house and sequestered the boy, refusing to allow him to call a lawyer or even his grandparents, who lived down the road. They hauled items out of the house, and as they left they told the boy that he too was subject to the gag order—that if he told anyone what had happened to him, he could go to jail.

.... it ultimately took a lawsuit and the Wisconsin Supreme Court to shut down the probe. In its ruling, the Court made clear its view that the probe’s purpose had been intimidation."

Sieg Heil, Liberals?

Powers was raised as an Episcopalian but spent much of her early adult life as an atheist. In her mid-30s, she became an evangelical Christian. The process of conversion began when she dated a religious Christian man, who introduced her to the Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City and the teachings of its pastor, Tim Keller, and culminated in an experience in 2006 when, during a trip to Taiwan, she believes that she was visited by Jesus after waking up in the middle of the night.[5]

Uh, with all due respect, that's called dreaming.

Jesus what a crazy bitch, she calls herself liberal to gain entry into the conservative sphere so she can then bash liberals to collect her paycheck. The droolers watching Faux News only know they can shoot spittle with glee every time this charlatan opens her mouth

That is easy. Liberalism is a subset of socialism, the idea of community, that it takes a town to raise a child and the wants of the many outweigh the needs of the few, and since socialism never works very well for very long because it breaks down as soon as they run out of other people's money (socialists never produce anything), it eventually collapses to be replaced by an active oligarchy, ie.: fascists. Fascists will leave you alone so long as you do what they tell you and pay them money.

Kinda like being a dhimmi under a Muslim society!

All the time, money and effort conservatives spent to convince people that liberalism is communism. Now it sounds like that campaign didn't work, so a new campaign begins: "liberalism is fascism". Wonder if fascism works any better?

You're an idiot, and an idiot will believe anything they read on the internet, no matter how stupid.

Referring to yourself in such a manner after such a short time here is somewhat telling don't you think?

Do you have something intelligent to say or do you need to hug a puppy?

So you're saying that America was started by socialists and will become fascist.

What is to be done about these Liberal wannabe-Fascists who have taken control of a major political party?


Well....I'd say no Liberal/Progressive/whatever should ever be allowed to assume a position of power in the United States, as their aims are inconsistent with the Constitution.


But Ms Strassel is far kinder.....she says:

9." The intimidation game is very real. It is the work of left-wing groups and politicians, it is coordinated, and it is well-honed.

.... think hard about ways to limit the powers of the administrative state, to stop rogue agents at the IRS and other agencies from trampling on free speech rights.
We can make great progress simply by cutting the size of federal and state bureaucracies. But beyond that, we need to conduct systematic reviews of agency powers and strip from unaccountable bureaucracies any discretion over the political activities of Americans. The IRS should be doing what it was created to do—making sure taxpayers fill out their forms correctly. Period.

Most important, we need to call out intimidation in any form and manner we see it—and do so instantly. Bullies don’t like to be exposed. They’d rather practice their ugliness in the dark.




10 Our country is best when it is engaging in vigorous debate. The Framers of the Constitution envisioned a multiplicity of interests that would argue their way to a common good. We succeed with more voices, not fewer, and we should have enough confidence in our arguments to hear out our opponents." The Left’s War on Free Speech


It would certainly be a start.

 

[TheDude]

Under Obama's tenure. PC was introduced as a tool, as well as propaganda taken to levels not seen before. The intent is likely for a one-world order, and of course votes.

Now we're left with safe space-seeking, narrative sucking, projecting protesters, who love a constitution they know little about, but only when it adheres to their bullshit. Examples are Christianity sucks, welcome the Muslims, men marry and have children, dudes are chicks & should lead the Girl Scouts, white males suck & hopefully die, and yadda yadda mother fuckers. Yeah, this generation of "libs" sucks long and hard. I see them as easy targets. In fact, their make-up would suggest I'm right.

Right. Now you are a "fanatic" if you are a constitutional conservative.

 

[toobfreak]

So you're saying that America was started by socialists and will become fascist.

Ahh, No.

No cigar for you.

Well how about this: America was started by liberals?

 

[TheDude]

The irony is, look no further than the election results to see how libs. feel about a constitution they know little about.

"America was started by liberals?"

Back for another lesson?

Excellent.

The 'Greatest Lie"is the one that the modern Liberals tell. They claim that those called Liberals today are the liberals who founded this great nation. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Founders were 'classical liberals,' whose vision included . individualism, free markets, and limited constitutional government. That's why they wrote out a detailed Constitution.

a. Communist John Dewey, the one who corrupted education in this country,convinced the Socialist Party to change its name to 'Liberal.'And it's values and doctrines formed those called Liberals today.


The benefit to them, of course, is that the uninformed attribute the greatness of the Founders, of America, to them.




2. Simple enough to prove....although, not as simple as you are.
Which represents the Founders, classical liberals, conservatives?

a. individualism, free markets, and limited constitutional government.
or
b. the collective, command and control regulation of private industry, and overarching government that can order every aspect of the private citizen's life....right down to control of his thoughts and speech.




This would be a fine occasion to remind all that the charge: "They had nothing in common other than the government’s view that federal power is virtually unlimited"...
