    Trump/Hitler comparisons wildly miss the mark. Trump/Mussolini does a better job of incorporating the buffoon factor.

      Sorry, but left radicals in germany are the new fascists, cuz they use the same means.
      Even tough you say you wanna do heaven and save us and the whole world.
      As soon as you tend to manipulate and even hurt others (even just through ur ignorance and cuz youre a sheep and want some kinda group feeling). Especially physical. And extreme lefties are waaaay to aggressive in germany.

      Both left and right are dumb and just instrumentalised to make em fight each other to get caught in this dualistic bs and also pull others in.
      Stop it.
      Start thinking for urself.
      Start acting like a human.

      Thanks for responding @luegenbaron.

      Stop it with the false equivocations and start thinking for yourself indeed... The truth does not always ly in the middle. Yes, ALL radical violence has gone up, on both sides, but you're fooling yourself and the rest when you equate fascist violence with anti-fascist violence; they're not comparable in motivation and certainly not in scope, as right-wing violence overshadows left-wing violence in all metrics. That goes for Germany too by the way.

      Yes, left and right are both dumb at times and both are tools for the real enemy, you're spot on. But that doesn't mean that answers to our collective problems aren't found in either of their tendencies and characteristics. It's not as if one side has equally deplorable motivations as the other side, or uses the same tactics as the other side. They're not morally equal, not equally scientifically valid, not equally disruptive to society, not equally intellectually honest. Start acting like a human and see these apparent differences for what they are without letting your view be clouded by some misplaced appeal to "dualistic bs".

        No just no.

        You should inform urself first.

        Left and right are two sides of the same coin.
        And in germany the left extremes are the new Nazis.

        Cuz everything you say which isnt how they like it.. Makes them call you nazi and attack you.

        You aint even allowed to say what you are or not.

        They just tell everyone theyre nazi and then dont allow em to talk anymore.

        Great strategy

        Have bigger problems anyways..

        But if you wanna break out of this dualistic view.. Just look at what they do.

        And be independent

          Indeed. But what's your point @gweedy? Text-book crony capitalism. That's making my point really, so, thank you, I guess :-)

            It is difficult to take you seriously when you write a post about fascism and you don't even mention Giovanni Gentile one time. Go google him...

            Therefore I'll try and explain their fundamental differences in another way that should be even more obvious; historically, fascism has always been a reactionary movement in opposition of the political left

            Are you implying that anyone who opposes the left is a fascist?

            And more importantly, how do you know the differences between someone who opposes leftists views and is not a fascist with a real fascist?

            Literally every possible characteristic of fascism is anti-left

            I read "totalitarian ambitions" which goes hand in hand with the left.

            These men aren't full-on Nazis

            Well Trump is a great ally of Israel, antisemitism in today's society is coming from the far left like the congresswoman from somalia.
