Black Boot Or Red

…it’s still a boot, stomping on your face.

In all of the humorous attempts by the left to expunge the Nazis and fascists from their history, they have to desperately grab for small straws of differences between fascism and communism. But what’s important is not the niggling differences, but what is the same — both are ideologies of the collective, of the State, and opposed to individualism. The difference, as I often say, is transparent to the user. But neither is “right wing,” if by that one means committed to individualism and human liberty.

  1. But neither is “right wing,” if by that one means committed to individualism and human liberty.

    And there’s the crux.

  2. Nazi was the abbreviation for NSDAP, National Socialist German Workers Party. Stalin hated Hitler because Adolf was a right deviationist, and he hated Trotsky because he was a left deviationist. all were socialists.

  3. Not just ideologies of the collective, but ideologies of the collective by Force. It is the exercise of aggressive force that makes them not simply folly but profound evil.
