Republicans/Nazis

People Who Call Themselves Republican

In order to understand why 34% of Americans still believe in Bush, you must understand the mentality with which we are dealing. First, though, I hate picking on one party and ripping them, because any good point you make gets spun into the ramblings of a left or right winger thing, which is related to the old "Us and Them" struggle. Having said that, I will say this:Republicans don't realize what they represent to every one in the world who is not one of them. To most people, they represent hate and 'otherliness.' The Allies might have won most of the battles of World War II, but Fascism won the War.

I know this characterization may seem harsh, rude, or even overboard to any Republican reading this, but allow me to explain.The Life Blood of the Republican Party seems to be a Grand Coalition of "Anti's." What I mean by that is a formation of groups who are joined together based on what they are against. I feel this is the founding statement in understanding the mentality that guides the whole party. The personality traits of most Republicans centers on people who form judgments based on what they don't like or on things that anger them, rather than judgments based on love for their fellow man. While anger is a powerful motivating force, more times than not it is pre-programmed in Republicans to allow or even encourage evil actions or deeds.

In reviewing Republicans I personally know, I quickly understand that being Republican implicitly means that there is a person, group, or constituency in America that you just Hate. It could be blacks, or Jews, or Mexicans, or city folks, or Liberals, or civil rights activists, or pro choice citizens, or the French, or Muslims, or Arabs, affirmative action proponents, women, gays, foreigners, and the list goes on forever. To me, this is the main reason Republicans seem to be able to get their followers to go to the polls more easily than Democrats. We know that Hate is a powerful mobilizing force and it is this force that Republican leaders and decision makers depend upon.

They may only have 35% of the population, but they can count on nearly 100% participation.Whatever group it is that you hate, the Republican Party will gladly invite themselves in to hate them alongside you. This is why many citizens, as well as politicians, say they are afraid of Republicans. They seem to believe that because of these intense fires of hatred, there is no manner of wickedness that Republicans are not capable of.All one has to do is look at the way they govern to be aware of where their priorities lie. With the exception of abortion, Republicans legislate almost always in favor of Big Money, property, corporations, and any other inanimate object before they concern themselves with necessities naturally accruing to human beings. Now, of course, this is not the case in every individual who calls themselves Republican, but as a group or voting block, they seem to just hate their fellow human citizen for no other reason but that they are something other than them. Or they are filled with so much anger towards certain groups they consider enemies, that they will condone any type of barbarism, torture, or any other murderous action against them.This brings me to the whole "God is on our Side" thing, of which they seem especially proud. Oddly, I cannot find any major Republican agenda that is truly in line with any of Jesus' basic teachings.

Today's Republicans are vehemently against almost every public program designed to help humans live better lives. From national health care, to public education, to Head Start, to after school programs, Affirmative Action, civil rights issues, women's rights, to minimum wage for workers, they seem united in their prejudices. It frightens most normal Christians, for instance, that Republicans seem to pick and choose which path they will walk with their God. For example, it is okay to go to war and get hundreds of thousands of living beings killed or maimed, but any form of abortion is simply immoral. They say they are "pro-life" but at the same time claim ownership of the death penalty.

This is the thinking of people who can rationalize any form of wickedness, as long as it suits their rigid goals. Jesus' teachings, to me, state that we must love our neighbors as we love ourselves. Republican teachings seem to mean that you should love yourself first, and let everyone else worry about themselves. This is as unholy and immoral a message as any that Nazi Germany practised in World War II. It is also a device designed to separate some Americans from most Americans. It is an earnestly studied mentality the kind of which made the Holocaust possible, and now it's successor, the Iraq War.This is only a start of what makes less-than-one-out-of-three Americans think and act like they do. I will be adding more as time goes by especially as the courts become more crowded with the principals we are now just beginning to examine.First, there are a few things that should be remembered by all law abiding, Constitution loving American citizens: Democracy is NOT DEAD and it will not be killed off by this "temporary majority" of street thugs, puritanical misfits, and overly privileged cowboys. Democracy is more than an attitude, it is a genuine culture that has grown in the hearts and minds of enough generations of American citizens that it will never be successfully extinguished by any one person, group of persons, and certainly not upon the "cause" of any event no matter how dire. They don't believe this so they, like many before them, will just have to be shown, again.Your world is over, Trolls, and it looks like you're the last to find out, or maybe it is just your reluctance, or inability, to accept regular old Truths. Or maybe you are too addicted to those "Created Realities" Komrad Karl has so successfully washed your brain with.
