The Tea Partiers, rightwing extremists, Third Positionists, Yockeyites, etc. say that Fascism is a Left movement. No it’s not. It’s a rightwing movement, far right. Let’s look at the evidence:
Fascism is an extreme rightwing system characterized by:
- Varying degrees of contempt for democracy
- Intimidation of political opponents
- Utter contempt and hatred for liberalism, socialism and Communism
- Hatred for homosexuals and minorities
- Utter contempt for social programs as palliatives for the weak
- The notion that the strong survive, and the weak die
- Often use of extreme religiosity, usually Christianity
- Exaltation of masculine values and contempt for feminine values
- Emphasis on traditional values and traditional morality with hatred for “immoral” behavior
- Hyperemphasis on the family unit
- Utter hatred and contempt for feminism – the notion that women belong at home
- Ever-present propaganda
- Total dishonesty in government and society – the Big Lie
- A total marriage of government and business to where we can’t tell where one ends and the other begins
- Extreme emphasis on law and order
- Use of street thugs to enforce order
- Massive corruption in government and business
- Utter hatred for workers’ organizations and workers’ rights
- Exaltation of class society as divine and denial of class conflict
- Extreme, often belligerent, nationalism tending towards jingoism and militarism
- Hatred of most other societies as inferior or weaker
- Insulation and xenophobia – refusal to read anything from outside the motherland
- Hatred and contempt for all international institutions
- Hatred for all sentimentality, kindness, sympathy and other “soft, weak, feminine emotions”
Sound very Left to you? Not really. Not in general anyway. Sure, there have been crossovers. North Korea has fascist elements. The Khmer Rogue did too. So did Romania’s Ceaucescu.

I think this nails it really. No response from your resident Yockeyite I see: is he on vacation?
Wow. You are quite a poet.
What are you referring to?
I clicked on your blog and read your latest post.
Oh, thank you! My best friend at the time, a woman called Catherine, didn’t like it at all, said it was “disgusting” and “playing to the gallery”.
Isn’t he a great writer? I think he’s better than I am even. No wait. No one writes better than I do.
Yeah, whatever happened to FPY? He hasn’t been commenting lately.
I think he’s dead. This is him, right?
Funny, I never knew fpy was an environmentalist.
I actually always pictured fpy3p as the guy on the right in this picture.
Lol!
Did you get that image from the article about Mongolian neo-nazis?
No, seriously, I wonder where he is?
Worse. Dead, I’m afraid.
Well at least he can create a new popular image for Asian males:)
LOL.
Good picture by the way, Abiezer Coppe/jacobbauthumley/forgot your real name.
Precisely as I imagined an orationally gifted Cromwellian Leftist Elder Statesman Brit Commie should look.
It is a good picture. Why does he look like he just stepped on a snail though?
He has stepped not on the snail of Nature, but on the filthy crawling-dog snail of the neoliberal Capitalist establishment.
I’m in a boat on a windy bay….heading out to Blakeney Point, August 7th 2010
And my ex, Alpha, said it was clear evidence of a personality disorder! She’s an infant teacher who suddenly turned psychiatrist!
Disgusting…clear evidence of a personality disorder…and yet so enjoyable…
Maybe the JDL somehow discovered FPY’s location and decided to eliminate him for the crime of blasphemy against the flawless Jewish people.
Look out! Me, Robert, Hacienda, Lafayette, etc, are all next!
