Second of all the nazi's DID NOTmaintain a policy that the"right to choose the government and determine the laws of the State shall belong(s) only to citizens" for very long after the public foolishly electednazis. I have never heard the right "demand that the State shall above all undertake to ensure that every citizen shall have the possibility of living decently and earning a livelihood. If it should not be possible to feed the whole population, then aliens (non-citizens) must be expelled from the Reich" I have heard this from the left, and to argue that people who illegally invaded the country be allowed publicly funded subsistance is beyond left wing, it just down right idiocy.
You will find a populist sentiment that is deeply suspicious of the existing party structure:
“We wage war against the corrupt parliamentary administration whereby men are appointed to posts by favor of the party without regard to character and fitness.”
Are you implying that political positions or government bureaucratic jobs handed out to friends or relatives regardless of competence is a good thing? As evil as the nazi's may have been, no one can lucidly argue that this policy is somehow harmful to society.
And deeply suspicious of a free and independent press:
“23. We demand that there be a legal campaign against those who propagate deliberate political lies and disseminate them through the press. In order to make possible the creation of a German press, we demand:
(a) All editors and their assistants on newspapers published in the German language shall be German citizens.
(b) Non-German newspapers shall only be published with the express permission of the State. They must not be published in the German language.
(c) All financial interests in or in any way affecting German newspapers shall be forbidden to non-Germans by law, and we demand that the punishment for transgressing this law be the immediate suppression of the newspaper and the expulsion of the non-Germans from the Reich.
Newspapers transgressing against the common welfare shall be suppressed. We demand legal action against those tendencies in art and literature that have a disruptive influence upon the life of our folk, and that any organizations that offend against the foregoing demands shall be dissolved.”
So the left's attempts to stifle talk radio, and demonizeFOX News, and marginalize everyone with a different oppinion is their glaring support for a free press?
I hate to break it to you “PrayingforWar” but these are sentiments that have long been associated with the Right of the political spectrum. I'd hate to break it to you donk, but I think I've adequately addressed how these sentiments are not shared by the right, and that the worst of these sentiments have been practiced by the left, even FDR. Furthermore, for whatever sentiments regarding immigration you could draw some convoluted paralells too, the majority of Americans concur that unchecked illegal immigration is a threat to the public, the left worries about the welfareof themselves and the state. Since the left clearly feels it will benefit from illegal alien votes, it attempts to demonize any dissent as "bigotry, racism, fascism" blah blah blah. It's a capital FAIL.
Now, if I wanted, I could also cherry pick leftwing sentiments from the Nazi program. For example that passage “highcrebel” excerpted regarding old age pensions . . .
I wonder: does the fact that Hitler pandered to the old make you feel any different about old age pensions?
What about Hitler’s sentiments on immigration? Make you feel a bit brown?
Don’t you think that it would be better that people stop trying to caricature each other as Nazis and Stalinists, and have a civil discourse that seeks to better understand each other and each other’s positions?
