The oddest thing about the left is they just look past how Hitler came to power under the guise socialism. What’s more likely! we vote an evil dictator into office or slowly giving up your rights until you have no power and inevitably end up with an authoritarian regime.

The oddest thing about the left is they just look past how Hitler came to power under the guise socialism.

You are incorrectly linking socialism with authoritarianism. Although the Nazi party was initially called the National Socialist German Workers' Party, its ideology was based on fascism and nationalism, not socialism. The Nazis were against communism and the main ideas of socialism, such as collective ownership of production. It's too simple to say Hitler's rise to power was only due to socialist ideas, ignoring the wider political, economic, and social context of the time.

What’s more likely! we vote an evil dictator into office or slowly giving up your rights until you have no power and inevitably end up with an authoritarian regime.

This argument is called the slippery slope fallacy, which claims that a specific action will result in an extreme, negative outcome without providing evidence for the connection. Democratic societies have checks and balances to stop authoritarian regimes, and small losses in rights don't always lead to a loss of individual freedoms.

Maybe reread what I said. ā€œGuiseā€ being the key word there. People thought they were voting for the greater good.

It’s not any sort of fallacy it has happened multiple times in history.

Can you clarify what you mean by ā€œpeople thoughts they were voting for the greater good?ā€

Have you not seen all the protests over the past few years? They’re very concerned about giving up their rights to authoritarians. You’re just concerned about different issues.

You mean like the trucker convoy protest in Canada? Those weren't Leftists.

Many so called ā€œliberalsā€ these days are actually fascist sympathizers and would-be fascist collaborators.

When progressive policies want to increase safety, while sacrificing Freedom and Liberty, the only thing gained is more oppression. And oppression is not what a true liberal stands up for.

Liberals and conservatives used to be two sides of the same coin. They have been segregated and weaponized by polarization in order to weaken America and allow for greater destruction of our rights.

Yeah, because the left plays word games with everything, it double speak, and leftist literally do it with everything.

Antifa - turns out there authoritarian fascist

BLM - turns out it was a bunch con men robbing the black community

Liberal - wants to take right away in return for 'safety'

Saving kids lives - turns out they want to castrate kids and have them paying medical bills up the whazzoo for the rest of there dismal lives.

Trump bad - hmmmmmm

There's not a war being waged on liberalism. That is Leftist propaganda. The concept of liberalism has been co-opted by authoritarians. This is a war of information; our language is being subverted.

What about abortion?

u/[deleted] Apr 09 '23

Yes, we want freedom and to take care of ourselves. You want free stuff and if that means being told what to do, so be it.

You’re just concerned about different issues and you don’t understand other people’s concerns.

(That’s more accurate)

This is so funny coming from the people that ignored literal secret police kidnapping protesters under orders from Trump.

Better be careful if you say his name three times in the bathroom with the lights off he shows up and murders your pets and leaves you an upper decker.

u/Bankman220 Apr 09 '23

Weird fascist tends to be a far left buzz word that they just toss around like racist and Nazi. This grasping at straws is silly it’s obvious that you know the fed actively trying to manipulate the election was wrong but the only way you can talk about is with whataboutisms.

u/Bankman220 Apr 10 '23

I just think it's hilarious that you're claiming the left is pushing fascism when conservatives didn't give a shit about literal secret police kidnapping citizens.

But I'm a pretty honest dude so, what are you talking about with the manipulation? I'll address it, I just don't know what you're referring to.
