This posting reminds me of Mark Twain's famous adage that it's better to say nothing and look stupid than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. Factnotfiction ignores the historical fact that Fascism developed from the socialism of Benito Mussolini's youth. Planks 7 through 9 of The Communist Manifesto talk of partnership between government & industry.

Lenin & Mussolini were admired by the progressives of their time as was Adolf Hitler,k Stalin, Mao, Castro etc. A group of progressives took a junket to Moscow and Rome to observe Lenin's and Mussoloni's systems. The group included such progressive luminaries as John Dewey (architect of America's current educational system); Upton Sinclair (muckraking novelist and author of forgotten tomes such as The Jungle); Lincoln Steffens (muckraking journalist) and others. (Notice muckraking seems to be a common entity among progressives. Things don't change, witness alleged people like Kevyn, PeterS, woodguru, Lone Wolf, etc.)

Steffens came back famously gushing, "I have seen the future and it works!" I wonder if he asked the millions of victims of Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini, Mao, and the other great twentieth century progressives.

So factnotfiction wants to bury fascism deep in the ground, maybe along with Lenin, Hitler Mussolini, Mao, Castro and later. Does that include him & Kevyn, PeterS, woodguru, Lone Wolf, etc?

Of course, none of them will acknowledge that Lenin, Stalin, et al were progressives. That's the beauty of being a progressive. When your system fails, blame it on counter-revolutionaries, conservatives, greedy capitalists, etc. Must be nice.

We're already there. Take a look around; new record highs in the mkt just about every day. My 401K is going through the roof thanks to President Trump. My private account is doing even better. ISIS , consumer confidence, less regs, everything he is doing is good even for the dependent Libtards. What's wrong fnf, not enough "free stuff" rolling in for you lazy bums on the Left??? Not a big enough communist agenda for you. Return to greatness???? Most of America thinks we're already there. wait until the LANDSLIDE in November and maybe, just maybe you'll figure it out. We'll make mince meat out of liars like Schitt, Pelosi, and Hillary. You love and support these idiots. Pathetic. Name five things Trump could be doing better. And even for you, name someone who could be doing a better job. Ask this all the time, and you come up with ZILCH.
