The left in the progressive movement were never about freedom or emancipation. The progressive movement is inherently totalitarian authoritarian and fascist. The Nazis were collectivists the Nazis were socialists. The whole progressive movement is a big lie and it was from the very beginning. Now that the progressive movement has so much power the masks and gloves come off and we see it’s true nature

The left-right political spectrum is socialistic all the way from the communists on the left end to the fascists on the right end.

Fascists are not “right wing.”

The term right wing really refers to classical laissez-faire policy..

People think that something like the Nazi movement was a “right wing” movement. It was not it was a socialist left-wing progressive race based ideology

"The terms 'left' and 'right' appeared during the French Revolution of 1789 when members of the National Assembly divided into supporters of the king to the president's right and supporters of the revolution to his left." Wikipedia

"The split dates to the summer of 1789, when members of the French National Assembly met to begin drafting a constitution. The delegates were deeply divided over the issue of how much authority King Louis XVI should have, and as the debate raged, the two main factions each staked out territory in the assembly hall. The anti-royalist revolutionaries seated themselves to the presiding officer’s left, while the more conservative, aristocratic supporters of the monarchy gathered to the right." history dot com/news/how-did-the-political-labels-left-wing-and-right-wing-originate

That is exactly what this administration is doing. I really thought that Obama started this division (he did!) but I did not realize that this administration had caused this much damage. They are in a foreign country (Washington DC), they do not obey our CONSTITUTION or Bill of Rights, they are literally doing ILLEGAL things every day that it takes months for the courts to say that is illegal you can't do that, (if they do!) but they continue to do it! And NOTHING HAPPENS TO THEM! WHERE IS CONGRESS AND THE SENATE TO IMPEACH AND STRIKE DOWN the illegality of this administration???? We need oversight on this administration someone that will halt any more progress and try to undo some of this damage.

Helluv'an article! Anyone who still does not nor cannot see the genuine and unequivocally clear markings of totalitarianism having been unleashed on the whole of humanity is, sadly, fully in the grips of it

Larry Fink was only partially correct.

Markets love incestuous fascist governments more than they do totalitarian ones of either extreme.
