1. I didnt say they are exact same thing but both support socialist platforms which is the point.Both communism and fascism are totalitarian, that doesn't make them the same thing. In fact, one of the possible defining attributes of fascism has been opposition to communism. One of the villains the Nazis used were the communists.
A distinguishing factor between the two is that communists rally around class identities which transcend national boundaries versus the fascists, who rally around a national identity.
All that aside, the assertion was that the KKK and contemporary Nazis are socialist, not communist. Not all socialism is totalitarian. Witness democratic socialist countries.
Going farther back to the beginning of the thread, calling Nazis "liberal" is complete nonsense.
Can you point me to a site with the KKK political platform, current or original?
2. opposition doesnt make two groups polar. during era of city states in Italy, rival or feuding cities shared same political structure/government structure but remained enemies.
Groups fighting each other would not and does not mean only one group (of two) is socialists while the other is not.
3. not all socialist govts. are totaltarians but both the national socialist party/nazi and communism use socialist platforms. which, going back to o.p. liberal political parties do support various socialist platforms.
4. origional kkk platform? best for that is history. which youd have to look towards usa' old democratic party.
but various things that are considered today are not considered in past. perhaps there is a cultural barrier to study and get around.
what they believe now? that would be interesting to note. until recently they have been underground?
