Fascism

Nazism has of course no connection at all with Socialism, which means a classless stateless society based on production for use.

Yes, National Socialism (Nazism) and Communism are both forms of the catch-all term, Fascism.

Facists seeked to organize a nation on corporatist perspectives, values, and systems such as the political system and the economy.

Nazism was the ideology and practice which involved biological racism and anti-Semitism. Raciam ideology is a very important component of Nazism which stresses the belief in the supremacy of an Aryan master race. The Nazis claimed that the German nation represents the most racially pure Aryan people and deemed the greatest threat to their race and the German nation as the Jewish race.

Propaganda, military police, a big army, and great manipulation skills.

Yes, the Italian Fascists of Italy support Benito Mussolini and the Nazis supported and worshiped Adolf Hitler, one of the worst Fascists and Dictators who ever lived. Stalin was the absolute worst though.

The Nazis believed many, often contradictory, things about the Jews.

One of the Nazis' favourite themes was that the Jews and the Germans were locked in some mysterious struggle for domination of Germany, Europe, even the world!

Until March 1933 the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Communists (KPD). There were banned in March 1933, and in May 1933 the Nazis became the sole political party in Germany. Some of the parties in the political centre were also opposed but co-operated with the Nazis when things got really difficult ...

Wilhelm Kempff was almost certainly not a Nazi collaborator. He played for party members and supported the party to further his own career but in no way does that mean he collaborated. Indeed, he translated and performed several pieces by Schubert who, at the time, was very much out of favour in Germany as he was a Jew.

1789 was the beginning of the French Revolution, in which France went through radical developments, a large part of which was the Enlightenment, an intellectual movement in which reason and rationalism was advocated.

Fascism rejects the Enlightenment and its ideals, being anti-rationalist. Thus the slogan "1789 is dead".

The Nazis confiscated many of Munch's works as 'degenerate', so they did not love each other.

No country in the Americas was occupied by the Nazis.

In German the full version was Nationalsozialisten.

It is the military invasion on Poland by the Nazi Germany on September 1, 1939, which ended in German's occupation of Poland till 1945.

A NAZI spy who preferred waiting on tables to his half-hearted attempts at espionage sent back "entirely worthless" information from wartime Britain.MI5 files revealed yesterday German Intelligence complained that bungling Werner Strebel, 42, was only interested in cash to fund a cushy lifestyle.

He was sent to London just before war broke out with a cover as a foreign correspondent and stock ADVERTISEMENT of secret ink, to spy on the RAF station in Dunstable, Bedfordshire. But he sent back only three secret "quite useless" messages, after complaining he could not get near the base because of the sentries.

Swiss-born Strebel was hired by Heinrich von Wenzlau, of the Abwehr (German military intelligence) despite being told his new recruit's only qualifications for cloak and dagger work were an appetite for "good food, good drink and easy living".

For £7 or £8 a week, he agreed to go behind enemy lines - to the Luton area - and send back secret messages written in invisible ink with a toothpick. However, a dire warning composed in September of a huge air attack on a German chemical works "within days" did not actually reach Berlin until two months later. Despite his failure he was sent back to Britain in March 1940 by his bosses, who never heard anything from him again. Apparently rather than infiltrate the higher reaches of Allied Command, he was working as a restaurant waiter in London.

Strebel was tasked with finding out everything about the RAF station at Dunstable, including its exact location, size, the length of the runway, how many airmen were based there, how it was illuminated at night and whether it was used for fighter or bomber planes.

But he apparently sent back only three secret messages, all of which were considered "quite useless" by Nazi spy chiefs.

We learn about violent events in history's because it is important to us what happened in the past that we still remember.

Authoritative right-wing system of government and social organization.

Yes there were. Check out the "Related Links" below to hear a true story about a teenage Mormon boy living in Nazi Germany.

Nationalism is the belief that your nation or ethnic group is superior to others. Taken to an extreme this belief becomes fascism. Fascists believe their national culture should dominate others. The individual becomes less significant. The 'state' is regarded much as a living being that fights, grows, develops. One definition of liberalism is that it believes the rights of the individual are paramount over all other rights. Taken to an extreme this can turn into communism, which is basically the belief that there should be no national state, no ownership of property, no religion to moralize. The individual reigns supreme. All nations are nationistic to some extent and all have at least some belief in individual rights. Fascist Germany was not particularly unique in its nationalist beliefs. Certainly Napoleon France, Colonial England, Manifest Destiny USA and many others have had similar national feeling. BTW, the origin of 'fascist' is from the Latin (Roman times). The term was used to describe a group of sticks tied together that were carried about as a symbol of Roman military and political might. You will often see this symbol used in paintings and statues of famous political persons in all cultures including the USA.

============================================================ You can be sure that a Nations political system(Government) is Fascist or well on it's way to Fascism by observing the following 14 Characteristics:

1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.

2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "NEED." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.

; ; 3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc. ; ; 4. Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread ; domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized. ; ; 5. Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution. ; ; 6. Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes the media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common. ; ; 7. Obsession with National Security - Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses. ; ; 8. Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed to the government's policies or actions. ; ; 9. Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite. ; ; 10. Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed. ; ; 11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked. ; ; 12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment - Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even fore go civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations. ; ; 13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption - Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders. ; ; 14. Fraudulent Elections - Sometimes elections in Fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their Judiciaries to manipulate or control elections. If you live in America?,... all the above mentioned characteristics should have you alarmed.

Communism. This is one reason Britain appeased Germany in the 1930s. Britain would have preferred fascism over communism.
