conservatives PLAGIARIZE the nazis

When you begrudgingly familiarize yourself with Nazi rhetoric, you realize that so many of today’s conservative talking points are just regurgitated Nazi ideology but with “cultural Marxism” or “Marxism” being scapegoats rather than Jews. Marxism was intrinsically linked to Jews, Judaism, and "Jewry,"  and Judaism and Marxism were almost indistinguishable from one another to the Nazis. Hitler even wrote that Marxism was a "weapon of Jewry." 

You'll also find that many of today's popular right-wing talking points regarding art, white people and non-white people, immigration, and trans people are practically identical to the words and actions of Nazis.

A lot of this is potentially just dog whistling done by actual Nazis and bigots that are attempting to make their ideology more appealing and socially acceptable to the masses. That, or conservative saw how effective this rhetoric was in swaying the German people against certain groups of people and ideas, and they wish to replicate its success in America, but instead of Jewish people, they're targeting LGBTQ people, immigrants, and other minority groups. Or maybe it’s just idiots using these arguments without knowing the history or context behind them.

PLAGIARIZING the nazis: "cultural marxism"

The Nazis used the term "cultural Bolshevism" (Bolsheviks were a far-left Marxist faction) to demonstrate how the Bolsheviks tried to subvert German society with progressive art, lifestyle, and other things like Bauhaus architecture to eventually take over completely while simultaneously destroying the previous "way of life." Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Nazi Propaganda once said in a speech that Bolshevism was a "declaration of war" against "culture itself" and "is not only anti-bourgeois, it is anti-cultural. It means, in the final consequence, the absolute destruction of all economic, social, state, cultural, and civilizing advances made by western civilization for the benefit of a rootless and nomadic international clique of conspirators, who have found their representation in Jewry." This sounds so familiar to what today's Conservative idiots have to say about "cultural Marxism" with it destroying American culture, or Western civilization in general, or advocating for everything to be the same blah blah blah. These Conservatives borrow other rhetoric from the Nazis, as they claim that "cultural Marxism" is a threat to America and anything associated or influenced by it is a danger that should be banned similar to how Goebbels claimed that Bolshevism was a threat to the Nazi/European culture and did not allow anything "un-German" to be produced in media, even staging public book burnings. And much like the Nazis, these conservatives kept it quite vague and difficult to follow who was doing this supposed subversion of culture and how they were doing it. Since Bolsheviks aren't really around anymore, Marxism became the new boogeyman that was trying to attack Western culture from the outside. 

Hitler himself even wrote against Marxism in Mein Kampf

"The Jewish doctrine of Marxism rejects the aristocratic principle of Nature and replaces the eternal privilege of power and strength by the mass of numbers and their dead weight. Thus it denies the value of personality in man, contests the significance of nationality and race, and thereby withdraws from humanity the premise of its existence and its culture. As a foundation of the universe, this doctrine would bring about the end of any order intellectually conceivable to man. And as, in this greatest of all recognizable organisms, the result of an application of such a law could only be chaos, on earth it could only be destruction for the inhabitants of this planet. If, with the help of his Marxist creed, the Jew is victorious over the other peoples of the world, his crown will be the funeral wreath of humanity and this planet will, as it did thousands of years ago, move through the ether devoid of men."

Hitler even goes as far as to say that if Marxism is victorious then the world will be destroyed, as will humanity. Again, sounds very familiar to what many conservative idiots say about "cultural Marxism" today. 

In another section of Mein Kampf Hitler describes Marxism as a "deadly poison" of ideas and writes, "By the categorical rejection of the personality and hence of the nation and its racial content, it destroys the elementary foundations of all human culture which is dependent on just these factors." Cultural Marxism being this poison that destroys culture and rejects the personality of a nation and its racial content (white people) all sounds very familiar. He goes on to say that "In the organized mass of Marxism he has found the weapon which lets him dispense with democracy and in its stead allows him to subjugate and govern the peoples with a dictatorial and brutal fist." "He" in this excerpt refers to a Jewish person, and characterizing Marxism - or socialism or communism - as an authoritarian rule by an iron fist is something we hear echoed by conservatives today. Hitler also describes Marxism as "the Marxism weapon of Jewry" which "descends like a nightmare on the mind and soul of decent people." According to Hitler, a Jewish person "establishes the Marxist doctrine" and then "he promotes its spread and conversely the aversion of decent people..." This last line about spreading Marxism so it can infect and pervert decent people is something else you commonly hear from modern-day conservatives. 

Again, it is worth noting that much of the anti-Bolshevism sentiment the Nazi propaganda machine churned out was also anti-Semitic so it is possible that today's idiots that whine about "cultural Marxism" destroying society and culture the same way the Nazis did are using it as a dog whistle for anti-Semitism.  

Modern-day conservatives, like Nazis, use "cultural Marxism" as this boogeyman threat which they heavily associate with a group of people, an idea, or whatever else they don't like in an effort to turn the masses against that thing. The Nazis used it to characterize Jewish people and conservatives use it to characterize trans people, critical race theory, feminists and feminism, and really anything else they don't like. This is how legitimate bigots and fascists can make their beliefs seem more socially acceptable - rather than coming right out and saying something openly hateful like "I hate trans people and they will destroy our culture so they need to be eradicated," they can instead say something like "I hate Marxism and it will destroy our culture if we allow it to have a foothold in the West so we must eradicate it," and just lie by saying trans people are a product of Marxism.

plagiarizing the nazis: "white replacement"

Many of the folks who prescribe to the white genocide myth will blame a "them" - Democrats, liberals, cultural Marxists, and all of the other terms conservatives use interchangeably -  as responsible for trying to flood America or Europe with immigrants (brown people) to defile the "hated" white race or end the "hated" white race altogether. This is essentially the same thing Hitler says in Mein Kampf, only he blames the Jews for immigration. Specifically, he states "It was and it is Jews who bring the Negroes into the Rhineland, always with the same secret thought and clear aim of ruining the hated white race by the necessarily resulting bastardization, throwing it down from its cultural and political height, and himself rising to be its master." Just replace "Jews" with "cultural Marxist liberals" and "the Rhineland" with America and you've got the same argument today's white genocide believers are making! 

It's unclear whether these people are all actual Nazis and disguise their Nazi beliefs by replacing Jews with modern leftists or if they are just very stupid and scared because they've only know a white majority in America and Europe. I think it's a mixed bag of hatred, fear and stupidity, just like the rest of the modern conservative movement is. 

plagiarizing the nazis: art and entertainment 

Starting in September of 1933 the Nazis created the Reich Chamber of Culture which "supervised and regulated all facets of German culture" according to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Modern art which was more abstract and expressionist or did not glorify the Aryan race, war, and peasantry was deemed "degenerate art" as well as "art bolshevism" and "cultural bolshevism" and the Nazis linked modern art to democracy and pacifism, both bad things in their mind. This part of the Reich "sought to identify and attack 'dangerous' artworks" and by 1937 some 20,000 modern works of art were confiscated and 5,000 were burned. Early on the Nazis even held carefully staged exhibitions for the degenerate art with the goal of mocking the art and the artists to turn the public against the works. Nazis would also claim that modern art contained Jewish and communist influences and that it "conspired to weaken German society with 'cultural Bolshevism'" according to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Pretty similar to what some conservatives will say today about art and entertainment with progressive elements being part of a propaganda plot to promote "cultural marxism" and/or brainwash people.

Looking specifically at the music in Germany, Music and The Holocaust identifies one of the the goals of the Reich Chamber of Culture (or Reichskulturkammer in German which is abbreviated to RKK) "was the ‘cleansing’ of the musical world, which consisted primarily of eliminating Jews, foreigners and political leftists from the musical scene, and ensuring that music composed by such ‘undesirables’ was neither available nor performed."

In Mein Kampf Hitler would even write that "Culturally, he contaminates art, literature, the theater, makes a mockery of natural feeling, overthrows all concepts of beauty and sublimity, of the noble and the good, and instead drags men down into the sphere of his own base nature. Religion is ridiculed, ethics and morality represented as outmoded, until the last props of a nation in its struggle for existence in this world have fallen" regarding Jewish people. This is not too different from what modern Conservatives say about liberals, or more accurately "woke SJWs," contaminating and infecting media (Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel movies, et cetera) to the point that it's unwatchable because of the "wokeness."

Hitler had some pretty harsh words for the artists of abstract and expressionist works:

plagiarizing the nazis: "criticizing" liberals

Some "criticism" conservatives lodge against liberals, or the left in general, include ideas that liberals aren't proud to be Americans and/or hate America, that liberals have infiltrated the military and made it "woke" (remember that Tucker Carlson segment about pregnant women in the military) which will make the nation weak and easy to be attacked by China, that liberals don't understand history or want to change it, and that liberals are no fun and ruin everything (like Star Wars/Star Trek/Comics/et cetera used to be enjoyable but now woke SJWs ruined it and it's trash), This is all very similar to what Hitler says about Jewish people in Mein Kampf: "In the political field he refuses the state the means for its self-preservation, destroys the foundations of all national self-maintenance and defense, destroys faith in the leadership, scoffs at its history and past, and drags everything that is truly great into the gutter." Hitler also writes that Jewish people contaminate art, literature, and the theater. 

Hitler also writes that Jewish people have secret thoughts and clear aims of "ruining the hated white race," something that liberals are accused of doing by modern conservatives today since liberals are more likely to support immigration (which means a demographic change with means white genocide to idiots) and black people being treated equally to white people.
