America - Freedom to Fascism

[IInvented]

For those of you who haven't seen this documentary, watch it. It's one of the best documentaries ever created. I already knew a little about what the documentary talks about because I've seen it in another documentary before but this documentary is really amazing. Anyways, **** anyone who stands behind their government.

So basically, people who racist and mad that Obama is doing a great job are putting out another hit piece?

Wonderful. I'll light the crosses, and get the ropes for the hangings if it makes you feel better.

Aaron Russo died in 2007. He's some guy that was friends with one of David Rockefeller's (rich ass banker) kids and he said before 9/11 happened they told him all about a plan to attack america in order to establish new world order in the middle east.

Whether you believe that or not is irrelevant. America IS facist if you know the very definition of facism. And that's a fact.

Perhaps the original form of liberalism is the opposite of fascism, but modern day liberalism is pretty close to fascism: Keynesianism, bailouts, nationalising industries, cronyism, the socially engineered society etc. They are quite similar actually.

Are you saying this is the case in America in 2014?

Name a single industry we've nationalized.

I didn't say anything about America.

That would be off-topic. Fascism advocates a mixed economy, not a nationalized economy. The idea behind fascism is that nationalization is unnecessary, because the state can regulate and legislate private businesses just the same. Nationalization would be a last resort and used as a minimal tool to react to the market, not the go-to method for central planning. But since you asked, defense, intelligence, currency, all nationalized by definition.

Actually the topic is America - Freedom to Fascism.

Currency is an industry?

Intelligence? The creation of OSS or CIA was not nationalization. However, you still have outfits like Statfor or Kroll that are private entities.

seriously bro, dont want to go further, but de facto every mandatory industry is owned by gov or companies that are running side to side with them. it almost doesnt matter.

[Dresta]

Except my post was a reply to somebody else (who said liberal was the opposite of fascist) and had nothing to do with America; it was about the ideology known as liberalism and the general tenets of those who hold to it being somewhat akin to the tenets of fascism. They are similar, alongside Communism, because they are all collectivist ideologies that emphasise constructive rationalism over spontaneous order (as an expression of evolutionary rationalism).

You're speaking of the US?

What's a mandatory industry?
