Historically speaking, is this a trvke?
>>17974035No its not true at all liberals literally went to war and destroyed facism.
>>17974037I think it refers to the rise of fascism, not the war itself
>>17974041That doesnt make any sense.
>>17974035Not really
>>17974035Was the Soviet Union liberal when it signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact?
>>17974045T-that doesnt count s-shut up chud
>>17974041The liberals were the only people who voted against the enabling act while communists abstained.
>>17974043Historical examples of liberals allying with fascism against communism include:>In post-World War I Germany, the Social Democratic Party (SPD), which was liberal at the time, allied with the Freikorps, a proto-fascist paramilitary group, to violently crush the German socialist revolution and eliminate communist leaders like Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht. This alliance helped suppress communism and paved the way for the eventual rise of Nazism.>In Italy, Mussolini's fascists initially gained power with backing from liberal industrial capitalists and bankers. The Italian liberals supported fascists' electoral laws and ran joint candidate slates to suppress socialism and communism during a period of major economic and political crisis after World War I. This collaboration was crucial in establishing fascist rule.>In Germany, large industrialists and bankers supported the Nazi party financially to fight communism through parliamentary means. The Nazis rose to power with liberal acquiescence, with the Social Democrats refusing a last-minute electoral coalition with communists against fascism in 1932, choosing to side with reactionaries instead of the communist left.>Western liberal democracies, including the United Kingdom, France, and Italy, preferred appeasement and non-intervention against Nazi Germany partly to prevent stronger alliances with the Soviet Union, reflecting a tacit preference for fascism or liberal capitalism over communism before World War II.>The choice of liberals to collaborate with or tolerate fascist regimes was driven by a shared determination to prevent the spread of socialism or communism, which fascists violently opposed alongside liberals. This antagonism to Marxist socialism aligned liberal and fascist interests against the communist left.
>>17974035Fascists are socialists
>>17974056@grok is this true?
>>17974035No it's just a socialist persecution complex, "liberals" have sided with different factions depending on the circumstances. As anon >>17974045 pointed out, even the Soviet Union temporarily sided with fascists when it suited them, in fact Stalin had a naive belief that they could keep Hitler happy and he wouldn't invade.
>>17974035No, its the opposite, Liberals and Conservatives both side with the radical far left over Fascists.Fascists in Italy, Germany, Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Greece, Britain, Spain excepted, ALL had to fight a coalition of Liberals, Conservatives, and Communists.capital isnt the underpinning of a nation-state, it is stability and Fascists are true revolutionaries because they can mobilize the military.Commie revolts are little more than peasant uprisings.For example in the USSR it wasnt hordes of workers rising up, it was soldiers it was former veterans making the spearhead attacks with workers being abysmal at fighting the state.The only threat to a state is an organized core of armed men.Workers arent able to put this together.Soldiers are.Fascists who mobilize veterans are a threat to national stability in a way other revolutionary movements are not.
>>17974337>Stalin had a naive belief that they could keep Hitler happy and he wouldn't invade.>Stalin was afraid of Hitlerwas he?
>>17974035cripes what a load of shit
>>17974448>Spain exceptedHow is Spain an exception. Liberals fought with communists against the fascists in their civil war
>>17974035>>17974045“If we see that Germany is winning we should supply Russia and if we see that Russia is winning we should supply Germany and that way we let them kill as many as possible.”- Harry Truman as governor of New York in 1940
>>17974045comrade they only signed that because the liberal bourgeois westoids abandoned them coooommmmmmraaaaaadddde
>>17975021Harry Truman was a haberdasher from Missouri, he was never governor of New York
>>17974035Everybody will side with whoever they can against socialism because they need food to stay alive and socialism prevent the production of everything, including food.
>>17974037the liberals happily scooped up the fascists after the war and rehabilitated them though. the soviets executed or imprisoned their nazis
>>17975064Senator of Mi. Huh, I don’t know where I got New York from
>>17974035ah yes, the classic commie lie that fascism is capitalism in decay.
>>17975104>the soviets executed or imprisoned their nazisNot only did they not to that, they even gave them their own little larp party in east Germany.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Democratic_Party_of_Germany_(East_Germany)
Even an event they obsess over as much as WWII can be forgotten in the minds of leftists when it becomes inconvenient for them. This is like when you get some idiots claiming the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact proves "horseshoe theory," totally ignoring the fact that they launched a war to save communism.
>>17974035Are you forgetting about WWII?
>>17974035The liberals sided with the socialists in the Spanish Civil War and got fucked over for it.
>>17976202The allies are the new fascists because anything that isn't communism get called fascism at one point or another. Having that in mind, look at the question OP posted again.
>>17976207So OP is a delusional tankie?
>>17975104Nopehttps://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Osoaviakhim
>>17975104Operation Osoaviakhim though.
>>17976202See >>17974059
>>17974035What does liberal mean?Genuine question.Fascists told me communism is a result of liberalism.
>>17976222Well, if you tolerate people who just want to take your things, you obtain people who just want to take your things. There really isn't more to the story of the modern left.
>>17974035Communism is fascism you stupid nigger cattle
>>17974043Italian liberals ran on a joint list with fascists, Japanese liberals just threw up their hands and gave up on trying to control the military, and German liberals (after wrecking the Weimar Coalition because it wouldn't screw over workers enough during the Great Depression) voted for the enabling act
>>17975104>JUST KILL'EM YEAHever heard of rehabilitative justice leftard?
>>17974035Fascism threatens Capitalism is the same way that Marxist Social Democracy does. Any radical element of it is strips away in favour an alliance with the Bourgeoise class, just compare D'Annunzio's Fiume to Mussolini's Italy.Liberal, like every other group of people (although i don't believe they should be referred to as such) will work with whoever benefits them in the moment, regardless of political ideology.
>>17974455Who said he was afraid of Hitler?Stalin thought he was going to get killed or imprisoned when Nazis invaded l, sat around stunned for a few days, and the war in the east was much closer than i thought previously. Maybe he was.
>>17976222It's a wide field. It has stuff like human rights, workers rights, seperation of church and state. You can see why communism would have some overlap.Russia actually tried going liberal before Communism. But anti monarchists(liberals) or something ruined it.Some people saw communism as the end state of liberalism. Some saw it as oppressive totalarianism worse than any monarchy.And marx and communists definitely drew some inspiration from western liberalism.
>>17975000Conservatives
>>17974059>no replies to AI trvthnvke
Both liberals and conservatives are in favor of fascism. It's the greedy elite who want "democracy."
>>17974035yes. that's what wignat trannies never understand
>>17976460>just compare D'Annunzio's Fiume to Mussolini's Italy.What about it?
>>17977480but fascism is just those same elites getting to throw you in jail for dissent (i.e. organizing unions or trying to stop them from starting wars)
>>17978322>throw you in jail for dissent (i.e. organizing unions or trying to stop them from starting wars)This in 2025 only happens in Russia and China. Meanwhile Yookay jails you for wrongthink memes
>>17978205D'Annunzio's Fiume was the truest and realist expression of Fascism whilst Mussolini's Italy never reached the same heights, Carnaro was also destroyed by the bourgeoise Italian state while the Italian bourgeoise were mildly supportive of Mussolini. the real expression of Fascism as a revolutionary outlook was destroyed, the non-revolutionary expression, was then paraded around by the same groups which destroyed the revolutionary expression.Similar things happened to Social democratic parties, of which Fascism is the perfect form
>>17978322Something tells me you live in a third world autocratic country.
>>17974035I seem to remember something about a huge kerfuffle where the 'capitalist' countries and the 'communist' big dog teamed up to destroy the 'fascist' states. Am I alone in this?
>>17976666No, no, you have to incorporate communist newspeak where any one who isn't liberal or communist is fascist.
>>17978727I meant that while the liberals allied with the communists, the conservatives allied with the fascists, which is what that guy meant by saying Spain was an exception
>>17974035Commies say this to villify liberals, but really they're right to side with fascism over them.Both options suck ass, but fascists will atleast not crash the entire economy and murder anyone who isn't poor.
>>17974035If that were true wouldn't Britain, France, and America have happily thrown in with the 3rd Reich and Japan to kick the shit out of the Soviets? Rather than allying with the Soviets to kick the shit out of the 3rd Reich and Japan?>Da JoooosFar more heavily represented in Soviet than Democratic politics at the time, even in America.
>>17974035Shitlibs ban fascism whilst not only allowing but also funding communists
>>17975086cute snake drawings, but this text is ridiculous circular logic. It says communists have historically been violent showing they are amoral, therefore they are not human so we must be violent and amoral to them to prevent violence and amorality in our society. I believe in human rights and due process, not dehumanization and guilt by association.
>>17974448>ItalyPrime Minister Giovanni Giolitti (a liberal) included Mussolini’s Fascists in his electoral coalition in 1921. The church & the monarchy both tacitly preferred mussolini to the alternatives.>GermanyPapen, Hugenburg both allied with the nazis despite being liberal/conservatives. The president Hinderburg then named Hitler chancelor & the NSDAP allied with long-standing industrials.>SpainNot true. The only liberals who helped the republicans did it in ideals for democracy and saw it as a fight against dictatorships, not communism.>BrittainAgain, the liberals only fought Mosley because the alternative was sufficient and didn't advocate for communism.>Peru & other third worldThese were literally anti-communist conservative movements I don't understand why you want to deny it. Historically speaking, conservatives and liberals hated communists because they threatened their dearest things; capital & tradition. On the other hand, fascists were this blend of conservatives with social elements and they seemed appealing to many voters.>>17976222That men are created equal and have a right to happiness and freedom of life.This entails that work on god-given land can mean ownership, that people should live like they want to even if they're wrong, and that the state should only be used for collective responsibilities.>Fascists told me communism is a result of liberalism.Ideologically, given that the economy implies shared-consequences, it can be argued that the state should plan the economy to fulfill the liberal dream.Historically, it's the opposite. Liberals don't want to give up their property and side with whoever protects that property the best (often fascists).>>17978788Anon the soviets literally attacked them...>>17974045Kinda. Stalin preferred sacrificing the popular masses in germany/europe to have socialism in one country than fighting for his ideals. It was the same logic, sacrificing others to preserve what you have
