Republicans support Fascism.

Are today’s Conservatives and Tea Party becoming fascists? I’m not saying that the Republicans are like the Nazi’s or the Fascists in their grand plan toward a “final solution”. However, what I am arguing is that they are embracing some of the same ideological beliefs and tactics that two of the most dangerous political movements the world has ever seen. What I am saying is the Republicans, Tea Party, and other elements of the far Right are creeping toward fascism. What I am also saying is that American’s need to seriously look back history in order to avoid repeating it

Fox News, radical Right-wing radio, and extremist’s blogs have been purposefully misleading their people. They are have been propagandizing the flock to believe liberals and liberalism is related to fascism. A recent revisionist history book titled “Liberal Fascism” became a best seller amongst Right-wing ideologues. All the while Fox News stars and talk radio hosts like Laura Ingraham and Glenn Beck, along with a host of Tea Party speakers, have been sinisterly misquoting Niemoller’s profound poem with absurd quotes like, “First they came for the rich, and I did not speak out because I was not rich, Then they confiscated the property owners, Then they took away our right to bear arms, but I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t armed. What a bunch of crap.

Fascism is a movement where a strong dictator leads his government in a takeover of all corporations and are supported by the church and wrapped in a blanket of nationalism and the flag.

The only difference today is that instead of the government being I charge of corporations the corporations are using their money to buy the government.

The end results will be the same. There will be a loss of liberty and freedom for all working people.  There will be deregulation of workers safety, pay and benefits. They will make you do their work until you die and you will never get ahead.

Teddy Roosevelt tried to warn us about allowing power to corporations as did other presidents. This is clearly demonstrated, and contrary to what the crazy Right-wing has been saying, Fascism is simply another word for “corporatism.” It is the empowerment of militant, rich property owners over minority groups like Socialists, unionists, teachers, and press. It is a movement that demonizes liberals and religious minorities, while propping up ardent militant nationalism.

Imagine an America where the Commander and Chief manufacture crises, declares a state of emergency, and then replaces all the democratically elected officials with corporate shills that support his own personal ambitions. That is how soft-core fascism works. That is also what has now been permitted to happen in Michigan, thanks to the corporate shill Repugs. Are the Republicans and the far Right-wing leaning toward fascism? There is certainly reason to believe this might be true. Nonetheless, only history will tell us if the Republicans will ultimately abandon democracy for the absolute power a fascist/corporatocracy
