OP- Where do you get that? Not since 1935 anyway.

Maybe later, I'm watching the ball game. As for your first paragraph, everyone has a mentor, someone wrote or said something which sets of the light bulb and remained in the memory bank. So, I'm far from impressed by your narcissism and pretense.
You clowns always have something to distract you from thinking.
Oh and BTW... I haven't pretended that I haven't had "mentors", but none of them were prophets. A mentor advises you, they shouldn't dictate how you think.
Drone.
Why do Conservatives love Putin?That question for you Liberals.
Yeah, you do. You accept them the way you'd accept a goofy uncle, y'know.....'a little strange but not a bad guy.'
OK...I understand why you hate, abhor the Nazis.
I know what they did....I see the Nazi villains in the movies....I recognize the references to 'grammar Nazi.' That makes sense.
But the fact that the same visceral hatred is not assigned to communists....the shrug, the sophisticated chuckle/sneer at those persistent anti-communists...
.....is the proof that you have been indoctrinated, brain-washed, manipulated.
Because the communists were far worse, and for far longer.
Yes...I'll prove it to you. First...let's fill in your history lacunae...
1. Remember that communism, Karl Marx, goes back to mid19th century....and took over Russia early in the 20 century. Not long after, it had cells and well organized branches in almost every western nation. From the start, they knew the value of psychological indoctrinations.
2. In the early years after the Bolshevik Revolution, the communists used manipulations, such as the Potemkin Villages, to persuade the world how admirable and successful the revolution had been. One technique was to invite prominent American and British leftists to take carefully planned tours. And these ‘Potemkin Progressives,’ for the most part, behaved and thought just as they were meant to.
a. Lenin, and then Stalin, carefully arranged the tours so that these progressives would then go back to their countries and praise Soviet Russia, so that the citizens would demand that Russia be recognized....'worker's paradise' and all.
H.G. Wells met with Stalin in 1934, and wrote “I’ve never met a man more candid, fair and honest!” and “…everyone trusts him!’ And of Lenin, “…frank, refreshing, and an amazing little man!’
George Bernard Shaw met with Stalin, as well. He returned, and wrote, “ We cannot afford to give ourselves moral airs when our most enterprising neighbors, the Soviet Union, humanely and judiciously liquidates a handful of exploiters and speculators to make the world safe for honest men.” He parroted the exact line that Stalin had given him!
And, of course, John Dewey.
See "Dupes," by Paul Kengor
When he returned from the Soviet Union, Shaw backed up ever lie that Walter Duranty reported. He testified that there was not, and never could be, a food shortage in the USSR.

None of this was taught to you in government schools....was it?
Why do Conservatives love Putin?
I don't, please do not attempt to speak for liberals.Why do Conservatives love Putin?
Why do Liberals love Lena Dunham?
I don't, please do not attempt to speak for liberals.
And yet they love Putin.Because 'the commies are coming', always gets plenty on the right worked up, just mention Lenin or Marx, and you are going to have a whole thread on it - oh wait, what is this then.![]()
They speak for themselves, I am only pointing out what we have seen on these boards.I don't, please do not attempt to speak for liberals.
Then don't attempt to speak for conservatives. Class dismissed.

And here we have another Ph.d discussing the different types of socialism.....
Hitler Was A Socialist And Not A Right Wing Conservative DemocraticPeace Blog
Mussolini’s fascism was a state socialism that was explicitly anti-Marx and aggressively nationalistic. Hitler’s National Socialism was state socialism at its worse. It not only shared the socialism of fascism, but was explicitly racist. In this it differs from the state socialism of Burma today, and that of some African and Arab dictatorships.
Two prevailing historical myths that the left has propagated successfully is that Hitler was a far right wing conservative and was democratically elected in 1933 (a blow at bourgeois democracy and conservatives). Actually, he was defeated twice in the national elections (he became chancellor in a smoke-filled-room appointment by those German politicians who thought they could control him — see “What? Hitler Was Not Elected?”) and as head of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, he considered himself a socialist, and was one by the evidence of his writings and the his economic policies.
Jesus loves PC, so anything is possible.

3.
prejudice in relation to the subject specified: body fascism
Wow....fascism is right wing because it is right wing......wow......that definition is not a definition..it is the same mess that my history Professor tried to explain but failed at because they had to say fascism wasn't socialism...but couldn't explain how it wasn't socialism other than to say "Well...it is right wing....so it is right wing fascism..."
Fascism and communism are two types of socialism.......
hat this violent anti-capitalistic attack is genuine, and not a mere piece of propaganda, becomes as clear from the personal history of the intellectual leaders of the movement as from the general milieu from which it springs. It is not even denied that many of the young men who today play a prominent part in it have previously been communists or socialists.
Christian dominionism is where everything begins with PC.

First define the terms. Start here:
Left right politics - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
USA Modern History Glossary.
Political Science Glossary.
Then, when reading a thread/post evaluate their argument. If the first sentence attacks someone's intelligence, stop reading. Such a topic sentence is the work of a partisan hack who will never take the post of anyone who disagrees with her seriously.
Left wing politics = government runs your life
"There is general agreement:
that the Left includes: anarchists, anti-capitalists, anti-imperialists,autonomists, communists, democratic-socialists, feminists, greens, left-libertarians,progressives, secularists, socialists, social-democrats and social-liberals.[5][6][7]
"There is also general consensous:
that the right includes: capitalists, conservatives, fascists,monarchists, nationalists,
neoconservatives, neoliberals, reactionaries, right-libertarians, social-authoritarians, theocrats and traditionalists.[8]"
Can anything be clearer? The effort by the right wing to connect everything evil, and every liberal, progressive and policy by a Democratic President or Congress as evil is one more example of the BIG LIE and an effort by the Right to rewrite history.
von Mises? Oh my.

Hitler and the Nazis were not liberals. They hated liberals.
