Anti-Semitism of the Socialist Left

In the history of the 20th Century, violent anti-semitism is most commonly associated with its most famous executive - Adolph Hitler.

However, anti-semitism has a long history in Europe, and in particular, it has a long association with Socialism.

Hitler's hatred of Jews was not a freak aberration on the Continent. In fact, part of the reason he rose to power so quickly is that many Europeans sympathized with his beliefs. For a thousand years, Jews in Europe have been vilified; accused of everything from secret control of governments, to hoarding gold, to actually eating babies. Scapegoating Jews is something pretty close to Europe's national pastime, right behind football.

The European socialist movements capitalized on this, as one of many weapons of class warfare. In fact, it is still common to this day to see the phrase "Jewish bourgeois nationalists" on socialist web sites. (Google it).

Socialists are still firing their "Jews are the cause of all our problems" weapons. Europe is socialist, anti-semitism (and in fact, other racisms such as nationalism, anti-black racism, etc) are prevalent throughout the Continent.

To see Europe continue to attack Israel for defending itself is to be expected. European socialists walk hand-in-hand with Islamic fascists, when it comes to killing Jews.

p.s. An oddity of history: Current socialists / left-wingers will tell you that Hitler was a "rightist". This is a fascinating reversal, because Hitler was a socialist (leftist) through and through. You cannot implement socialism without state control of property and of people's live's, and this is exactly what Hitler did. Socialists claiming that Hitler was on "the right" is an attempt to put their sins on the backs of others.

p.p.s. "Left and Right" don't mean much. Aside from being relative terms (e.g., Noam Chomsky claims the US media is controlled by the "right", yet Dan Rather considers himself a centrist and Pat Robertson believes Rather wants to be buried next to Lenin), they are easily misconstrued by whoever is doing the labelling. Whereas it's much harder to dodge responsibility for the results of executing socialism, if you call its most successful adherents (Hitler, Stalin) by their proper names.

Murder in the US

In 2011, I calculate the overall US murder rate as 4.6 per 100,000 population. But if you recalculate this, and assumed that black men murdered at the same rate as everyone else, the overall rate would drop to 1.9 out of 100,000 population. That would give the United States the 147th highest murder rate in the world - or, the 60th best. The insane disproportionate murder rate among US blacks is why the overall US murder rate seems so high. I don't understand why liberals refuse to talk about this. I don't understand why blacks refuse to talk about this. Blacks are just as often the victim as the offender - almost SIXTY PERCENT of murder victims in the US are black. Shouldn't they care about this? Where are Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to talk about this? Yet they are silent. And it's not like this is any secret. This culture of violence, abuse of women, and plain thuggery is paraded around daily in pop music. It's glorified on TV shows like "...

Self-loathing is the root of Marxism

  Marxists think having to work for a living is "slavery". Let that sink in. We are living beings. We require certain things for our survival. Those things don't magically appear before us. We have to work for them. Food, shelter, and all the things we have created in our industrial civilization, have to be CREATED through productive effort. For most people, there is nothing bad about this - it's a fact of life, and, many of us find satisfaction and joy from the effort. We work to sustain and improve our lives, which we love. Marxists rail against this fact, and call it an "injustice". They call it "slavery". Terms like "wage slavery" are what they call having a job. So, to be clear: Marxists hate work. Because they hate the idea of working to sustain their lives. Because they hate their lives. Because, at root, they don't believe they are competent to do the things the rest of us do - creative productive effort. So they hate themselv...

Obama lied to us about a "new era in race relations"

One should not be surprised, that President Obama has been shown to be a liar. This is because Democrats cannot be elected President in this country without lying. Polls and surveys show that the country is consistently conservative, right-of-center, what have you. The majority of Americans do not want government run health care or any other form of liberal nanny-state. Bill Clinton campaigned as a "New Democrat", and was elected overwhelmingly by voters who wanted to punish George Bush Sr for his own lie - raising taxes after promising not to. But the key part is, he campaigned as a centrist. Of course, that was a lie. The moment he got into office, thinking he was secure with a Democrat-controlled Congress, Clinton began pushing a big-government liberal agenda, starting with the nationalization of health care. There was an immediate and violent rejection of this plan, ending in the election of the first Republican-controlled Congress in 50 years. Bbeing the kind of politici...
