American Rightists are color blind? What planet is that? Every one I know sends me disgusting jokes in email about blacks, hispanics, muslims and . . . French. Oh, for the simple days of Evil Communism. National Socialism in PRACTICE was, as with everything else about the Third Reich, entirely different from the public propaganda that was so carefully crafted and continuously cranked out. But you knew that and attempted to tar candid political movements with the almost totally fabricated propaganda of somewhat similarly named movement that had totally different actual aims and practices. AND you expect to be believed?? Any brief study of actual Nazi economic policy shows the same people running the large corporations as before, while keeping the profits. Added by slave labor in many cases if needed. Providing they went along with Hitler's agenda and supported his war preparations. Who do you think built the Luftwaffe and Wehrmacht mechanized forces? Mercedes Benz, BMW, Krupp and such. A number of them are still in business, continuously since far before Hitler. Still owned by the Same families. Many from the beginning of the Industrial Age. "Confiscation" largely was limited to Jewish or democratic leaning ownership. Slavery isn't exactly profit sharing, which simply didn't happen. The hereditary ruling class of Imperial Germany continued in place as both the Officer class of the military and the majority of the effective owners of the industrial and economic reality of Germany. All the 'health', education and middle/working class benefits were limited carefully to obvious Aryans (REALLY white people) of approved political, intellectual, religious and sexual choices. About as demographically non-inclusive and color conscious as it's ever been practiced. The benefits for the 'middle class' (Urban workers, NOT the bourgeoisie who were doing famously as war preparations lifted Germany out of the savage Depression) were actually careful measures to keep the labor force needed for Modern Industrial Warfare motivated, intact and productive. To even think of comparing the Third Reich to any actual socialist or Liberal/Democratic movement means someone has been drinking some pretty interesting Koolaid. Hitler Did do a nice job of stealing the messages of his enemies to use as smoke screens for his real nationalist military and racial imperialism. The seminal Master Class in what continues to be Right Wing practice: "Tell them what they want to hear, do what works for Us." Marx got a lot wrong but he nailed, "Running dogs for the Capitalist Warmongers." Nazis or Wall Street toadies masquerading as patriots and Christians. Himmler would be proud of you. "Grasshopper, you have studied your lessons well."
