Dec. 20th, 2007 09:59 amIt's another day and another brain searingly stupid bit from "Liberal Fascism" over at Sadly, No! One of the commentors sums up the latest excerpt thusly:
EVERY SANE PERSON IN THE WORLD: The Nazis were fascistic because of their mass murder of their sanctioned enemies, their extreme rightist views, their totalitarian governance, their consolidation of state and corporate power, their persecution of despised minorities, their use of violent propaganda, their militaristic aggression, their intense nationalism, and their devotion to a leader with dictatorial powers.
JONAH GOLDBERG: The Nazis were fascistic because of their vegetarianism, their promotion of health food, their emphasis on physical fitness, their use of the word ’socialist’, their love of the environment, their defense of animal rights, their attitudes towards health care, their laws regarding gun ownership, and their fondess for organic farming.
So, in other words, what made the Nazis fascists were, you know, all the things that have nothing to do with the actual qualities of fascism.
And Professor Fate adds:
lord this is really the Moby Dick of stupid, the Finnigan’s Wake of ignorant bigoted nitwit gibberish, the Iliad of narcissistic twitdom, the Crime and Punishment of nonsense.
