Compare and contrast...then ask which way this country is headed....

ON SOVEREIGNTY
FASCISM: Nationalistic, pro-sovereignty
COMMUNISM: Globalistic, pro - regional governments

ON MONETARY POLICY
FASCISM: The Treasury issues interest-free currency
COMMUNISM: A Central Bank lends money into the economy at interest

ON ECONOMICS
FASCISM: Defends property rights and free enterprises, but partners with big business in certain areas.
COMMUNISM: Does not recognize private property, outright ownership of industries.

POPULARITY
FASCISM: Leaders are generally popular.
COMMUNISM: Leaders are generally unpopular.

ON TAXES
FASCISM: Tolerable
COMMUNISM: Confiscatory

ON CULTURE
FASCISM: Defends traditional morality, the family, and classic art, music, and literature.
COMMUNISM: Hates religion and morality. Promotes pornography, easy divorce, and garbage "art" of all forms.

Fascist states that existed seemed to have only been defeated by outside enemies. While Communist/Marxist states naturally collapse.
 
bump...important because to many of u are using the wrong terminology

Can't agree with that at all.

The USSR was constantly trying to stem the tide from the "decadent West" of pop music, clothes, customs, movies and so on.

They funded hundreds of classical music, opera and ballet events.

And IIRC both divorce and the possession of pron was illegal in the old USSR.

That may be true....but that was after power was consolidated. During the subversion period, the Marxists always spread garbage in order to subvert a nation.....and old USSR had state sanctioned atheism.

Once in power, they may then clean things up somewhat. Certainly, in the west...every leftist political movement has always promoted cultural decay.
 
Why do you go out of your way to defend fascism? It belongs in the trashbin of history along with socialism, communism, positivism, nationalism, chattel slavery, and all other forms of collectivism. To compare these evil ideologies is stupid.

Well right now half the people are calling Obama a fascist, and the other half are calling him a socialist. Shouldn't we define the terms so they are used properly?

Should we throw capitalism in the trashbin of history also? Because it has also killed people,so no bother studying or investigating it?

Fascism = Nazism | National Socialism
Communism = Marxism | International Socialism

Difference, 5 letters.

Now take your coercion and shuv it up your ass.

Fascism and socialism are essentially synonyms, with the former referring to a system with de jure property rights, but property rights de facto are nonexistant in either system.
 
If you want a label to stick on this current government how about AUTHORITARIAN?

Capitalism never killed anyone. Who did capitalism kill? Defined as a laissez-faire free market, it is, by definition, non-aggressive.
 
All you did was water down fascism to make it look good in comparison to communism. Obama is a fascist not a communist and the US is headed towards fascism. If you read the Communist Manifesto, you can see that the US has fit the 10 planks of communism since 1913.

Tell me, when did Hitler defend the property rights of Jews, gays, gypsies, and others? What part of the Holocaust was more moral than pornography?

OP, you're a fucking idiot.

I think the residents of the continent of Africa that die of poverty every year would disagree with you. Then you also have the imperialist capitalistic wars for profit- for example the 1 million dead Iraqis.

So you blame capitalism for the problems caused by big government corporatism. Have you listened to anything Ron Paul has said??
 
Looks like we're heading towards, and are partially already in, a hybrid of both fascism and communism.

It depends on how you look at it. Didn't Bush say that Jesus told him to go to war against Iraq? Even if there was communism in all African countries, there's not much wealth to spread around. Zimbabwe was a prosperous country with a free-market, but then the central bank started regulating the economy and caused hyperinflation. Now, millions of people in Zimbabwe are starving because of government interference.

I'm just playing devils advocate, and showing how there are good and bad elements in every system. Nothing wrong with investigating the various systems and choosing what aspects of them work and are good, and what portions are not.

As far as Africa, it is a resource rich country, but yes trade policies and banking manipulation are large parts of the problem.

Epic Fail.

Imperialism:
n.
1. The policy of extending a nation's authority by territorial acquisition or by the establishment of economic and political hegemony over other nations.

Main entry: cap·i·tal·ism
Pronunciation:\ˈka-pə-tə-ˌliz-əm, ˈkap-tə-, British also kə-ˈpi-tə-\
Function:noun
Date:1877
: an economic system characterized by private or corporate ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly by competition in a free market

Okay, students, where in this (see above) do you see state interference? (pause) nowhere.

Now, does our economic system look anything like this (see below)?
Main Entry:mer·can·til·ism
Pronunciation:\-ˌtē-ˌli-zəm, -ˌtī-, -tə-\
Function:noun
Date:1838
1 : the theory or practice of mercantile pursuits : commercialism
2 : an economic system developing during the decay of feudalism to unify and increase the power and especially the monetary wealth of a nation by a strict governmental regulation of the entire national economy usually through policies designed to secure an accumulation of bullion, a favorable balance of trade, the development of agriculture and manufactures, and the establishment of foreign trading monopolies

Fundamentally retarded = you.

Don't erect bullshit strawmen when you play devils advocate.

It moves you from thoughtful counter opinion to troll very quickly.

You erected a strawman. Fallacy. Don't do that.

As far as Africa, it is a resource rich country, but yes trade policies and banking manipulation are large parts of the problem.

The large part of the problem is the State. No state, no IMF, no retarded govt policies, no coercion, no inflation, yada yada.

In terms of some African cultures and tribes, the problem lies with traditionalism, based on primitivism. i.e this is how they did it, so we will mindlessly do it this way as well.
