Consoomer trends are not tracking of a single individual. You are conflating the two.

Fascism is the merging of big business (corporations) and big government (the feds). Have you read mein kampf? I have. Hitler hated capitalism. He felt all effort should be put into making the state bigger and stronger.

I didn't mention 'consumer trends' as the tracking agent. I mentioned corporate research on consumer trends.

Hitler wanted national socialism, and learned about fascism from the Italian Fasces movements and party. I've read portions of Mein Kampf. One of its important sections includes Hitler's impressive design for the Nazi flag, where he states:

In red we see the social idea of the movement, in white the nationalistic idea, in the swastika the mission of the struggle for the victory of the Aryan man, and, by the same token, the victory of the idea of creative work, which as such always has been and always will be anti-Semitic.

Though national socialism in Mein Kampf is not quite fascism, nor was fascism explicitly discussed in Mein Kampf, the Nazi Party converted national socialism to fascism in their practical approaches, which was a process that developed in the 1930s. Mein Kampf was not popular in the 1920s and 1930s. Mussolini also referred to it as "a boring tome that I have never been able to read" and "little more than commonplace clichés". Nazis adopted fascist strategies, which were in the

...form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, and strong regimentation of society and of the economy, which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe. The first fascist movements emerged in Italy during World War I, before spreading to other European countries. Opposed to anarchism, democracy, liberalism, and Marxism, fascism is placed on the far right-wing within the traditional left–right spectrum.

You talk about the pyramid of debate all the time yet you answer is this? It's just a wall of text designed to obfuscate the fact that you, once again, were called out on your bs and, as usual, will not engage in discussing your errors.

It's a polite response to you, rather high on the PoD (why would you think it isn't???), with very good information on the development of National Socialism and Fascism in 1930s Germany. Why to you have to whine? It's sad.

You didnt explain anything though and you literally called fascism right wing. If you had actually red the book instead of choice parts that your favorite websites cherry picked to make a point you would know how wrong you are. Also this is all besides the point because my point was hitler hated capitalism. A point you steadfastly ignored throughout your diatribe. You are probably very educated but poorly learned.

Instead of focusing on the surface of mundane things like the design of the nazi flag, you should read what hitler wrote about why used the Jews as a scapegoat to help him rise to power. You might find some parallels to today that make you feel uncomfortable.

What? I gave you the literal definitions and historical assessments. The blue text links to its origin (Wikipedia). It's the common definition of Fascism (tending to be authoritarian and right wing). It seems we'll not be able to discuss anything.

Wikipedia is one of the worst sources for anything political on the net. Also, of you were learned you would know that citing encyclopedias (which is what wiki claims to be) is a no go. You gotta cite the original source. Im sure it wont be hard to find a dozen left leaning bs articles for you to shove into posts though so don't worry.

We can't discuss anything because the definitions of things that you use all come from extremely partisan sources.

Furthermore we never do discuss anything because you refuse to engage in dialog. You just copy and past articles that you agree with. You come at everything from a perspective of "this is how the right is bad." You own position negates dialog with anyone from the outset. That's why mostly stick to short rebuttals with you. Feel free to cry again to the mods about harassment though.

TL;DR who pays you to be here?

WTF?

I engaged in dialogue.

Definitions at Wikipedia are in many other places and are not extremely partisan.

The problem is that you do not understand (or want to understand) anything I am writing. You have this make-believe concept of Fascism &c that hardly anyone would see as factual. Essentially, we're arguing about facts, but at a very low level, where you've redefined words in a manner that almost no one with a basic education would agree with.

You also want to think that someone pays me to be at Saidit, which says a lot about your approaches. Think for a second how many people care about discussions at Saidit, especially with people who have make-believe ideas about politics.

Yea yea yea, "im not partisan, you are!" Great comeback. Literally never been used before in the history of humanity.

Who pays you?

I want to add, and in a separate reply, that you are anything but polite. You are arrogant in your ignorance and your bigotry for those who don't think the same as you (namely that globalist boots taste good) shines brightly through all you politeness and walls of meaningless text.
