As a clear reference to "Hilter Youth"? The funniest part of the whole "Americorps" "Obama Youth" crap is that the ones who are going to "take over" are the unarmed liberals.

The stupid, unaware and unenlightened liberal kids will be rounded up and indoctrinated into a pseudo-military organization dedicated to untruth, injustice and the socialist way.

riddler 0 #19 September 14, 2009 I get why people are calling the healthcare reform "socialist", but I don't get why socialism is giving way to Nazi fascism? Do people understand that Hitler wanted the polar opposite of socialism? In his autobiography, Mein Kampf, he states his belief that the two greatest threats to Germany are Jews and Communists. He spent as much time persecuting communists as he did every other minority.Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dewhast 0 #21 September 14, 2009 National Socialist German Workers' Party Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei ("wiki" - to lazy to do real research) Contrary to popular belief, socialism is not a political system; it is an economic system distinct from capitalism. Communism is a political system. I point this out just to show why people make the comparison. I personally feel that calling Obama a Nazi is the easiest way to close communication thereby losing any argument. It is just ignorant to tie the man to a group based on one similarity. This is also why I generally stop talking to people when they call me a Republican simply because I don't agree with the HCR. I just don't trust the Gov.

Quote("wiki" - to lazy to do real research) Here, I'll do it for you: QuoteDrexler proposed that the party be named the German-Socialist Workers Party, but Harrer objected to using the term "socialist" in the name, the issue was settled by removing the term from the name, and it was agreed that the party was named the German Workers' Party (Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, DAP). To ease concerns among potential middle-class nationalist supporters, Drexler made clear that unlike Marxists, the party supported middle-class citizens, and that the party's socialist policy was meant to give social welfare to German citizens deemed part of the Aryan race.

So, economic immunity for the chosen few - hmm, sounds a lot like capitalism? Well, not exactly. The Nazi platform was overwhelmingly collectivist. For example, if you were a factory owner making kitchen appliances, representatives of the Fatherland could show up and tell you to stop making stoves & start making munitions. The Nazis favored working for the benefit of the collective, rather than for personal gain/corporate profit.
