furthermore the life of a lion is boring as shit. i don't think the life of a goat is all that much more interesting, but you sure as hell see more interesting things in a hundred years than you do in 24 hours.

this saying is very much representative of fascism, in my opinion.

when you first read through it you think: "oh, that makes sense. i'd rather live one day with pride than live a hundred years as a slave animal!", but then you use your brain for just a split-second and you realize it's a retarded idea. like fascism.

They don't just use the idea. In most cases they actively seek one and fight them.

The USSR may have gone "m-muh capitalists" and built up a large army, they still didn't hop the into West Germany nukes flying the first chance they got.

When fascists aren't seeking an external war, they're more likely to focus on the internal enemy of communism.

>They don't just use the idea. In most cases they actively seek one and fight them.

pretty much this.

the spenglerian idea of strength through struggle was critical in building nazi ideology. spengler argued that the history of human existence is not a history of time but rather a history of culture. through the aeons the way that culture has provided stability and prosperity for its people was through victorious conflict. kulturkampf, volkskrieg, these are all ideas that would be fundamental in Nazi thinking. also refer to junger's storm of steel, the notion being that even though the first world war was a horrific defeat, the german people found a sense of national brotherhood and cultural unity through the sacrifice that they had never had before.

in the discussion of facism people tend to forget that a fundamental element of it is a highly militarized, martial society. there were plenty of radical right-wing thinkers in the inter-war period that held the idea that through a state of constant marital struggle was how society and culture was going to flourish.

Private ownership of the means of production, operated for capital accumulation via a wage labor and market relations economy.

>>1246937
Capitalist systems are a prerequisite for fascism, ya dunce. Nearly all the western capitalist societies had a fascist movement, it's just that they didn't kindle the same way the German and Italian strands did.

Fascism is the wedding of corporate and state power. The state is armed and buttressed by industry, while industry is ravished by state sponsored endorsements, investments, contracts and legal support.

>>
>>1250016
>Hence early capitalist theorists (classical liberals) arguments for a new economy based on private property.

There were no "arguments for a new economy". Private property developed in England in the 16th and 17th centuries as a result of political changes (most important one was the Dissolution of the Monasteries) and only later classical liberals like John Locke and Adam Smith began to analyze and rationalize what happened, the labor theory of property from which both capitalism and communism are derived is an example of such rationalization.

One of the greatest insights of neo-reaction is it's rejection of Lockean property theory.

>The enlightenment failure has been to begin its analysis of property from the problem of justification [...] To depart from an axiom of legitimate original property acquisition through work, as Locke does, is already proto-Marxist in implication, resting on philosophically hopeless metaphor, such as that of ‘mixing’ labor with things. It is property that defines work (over against non-productive behavior), not the inverse [...] ‘Property’ — as a social category — is a legitimation of control. It cascades conceptually from sovereignty, and not from production [...] Property, in the end, is not sociopolitical recognition of rights, but keys. What you can lock and unlock is yours. The rest is merely more or less serious talk, that only contingently compiles.

Nick Land

This is why I say private property doesn't exist, since sovereignty ultimately rests with the central government. Private usufruct, even of the biggest businessmen, is only possible through buying political influence from the central government, who is the true owner.

That's why I joke that the Brazilian banker Daniel Dantas is the first private proprietor in centuries. Since the government cannot obtain access to his obtain access hard-drives, all the information and the "means of production" therein is truly his.
>>
>>1250028
I see. It's a strange question because at that percentage private ownership simply doesn't exist. The means of production is exactly that, value productive private property. If 0.00000000001% of the means of production is privately owned, even if he can somehow produce a commodity he wouldn't have buyers since 99+% of the means of production is commonly owned.

No, Adam Smith is pretty clear about opposing mercantilism for a liberal economy, granted mercantilism was a downward trend by that time.

And that's not what private property means, it just means it's owned by someone and they have rights to it. I could come into your house and murder you and take all of your things but just because I'm able to do so doesn't mean it's not private property. Similarly, governments can sometimes seize property and that may be a kind of philosophical conflict to some, but it doesn't change that the same government enshrines the right of private property. Also there are other aspects of capitalism.

>GM's Opel was the largest car and truck maker in the Third Reich. When Hitler came to power, his nation was still primarily a horse-drawn country. From the outset, GM consciously mass produced cars and truck for the German military, becoming a major and indispensable spear of Nazi rearmament. This included the Blitz truck which became the mainstay of the Blitzkrieg that conquered Europe. GM concealed its American control of Opel through special executives committees and board directorates. After the War, GM took all the profit, including that gained from slave labor. After a Congressional investigation, GM tried to obscure the facts and pressured Washington about a special report on the company's activities. To this day, the company frustrates research efforts into its protracted and profitable involvement in Nazi genocide

>General Motors, James D. Mooney, received the Grand Cross of the German Eagle for his distinguished service to the Reich. "Nazi armaments chief Albert Speer told a congressional investigator that Germany could not have attempted its September 1939 Blitzkrieg of Poland without the performance-boosting additive technology provided by Alfred P.

>I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902–1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested. Looking back on it, I might have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.

His methodology may have been off the mark but his point was a valid one.

People who claim that they'd rather "live one day as a lion rather than 100 years as a sheep" probably grumble while paying their taxes and are ok with wearing a uniform like any "sheep" would be, and if they really had a problem with conformity there's nothing stopping them from moving to a jungle or savannah and living like a lion.

Not to mention the fact that the animal that individual is lionizing (no pun intended) is in fact a vicious carnivore whose defining feature is his savage treatment of the young, old, and sick, and particularly their tendency to eat the cubs of other lions, so it's not like they're even that faithful to their own "race". They are epitome of the sort of crass self-serving beast with no loyalty to anything that doesn't serve their immediate needs, and that's probably an apt analogy for the kind of malcontent attracted to fascism, as well.

Ancient Greco-Romans thought of lions as kingly too, and often lost a considerable amount of money betting on them in the arena when pitted against a tiger, a larger, solitary loner who 9 times out of 10 completely trashes a lion.

Would [IDEOLOGY] have succeeded if [IDEOLOGY] stopped their meddling and trying to make it fail?

I made a thread asking this more general form of the question once, and the answers I got varied from "Successful ideologies are immune to meddling" to "All ideologies will meddle and be meddled with" to "Might is right."

So, IDK...

Should check out Stanley Payne, who wrote Fascism:A Working definition. In it he talks about "fascist vertigo", which is basically the idea that any movement vaguely right copyied superficial fascist ideas during the 20's through to the early 40's, because they appeared to be hugely successful.

He also writes about how Franco, Salazar and others were not fascist, or heads of fascist regimes. Actually, there's only really one or two regimes which can be described as fascist without having been seriously compromised by traditional conservative politics or other right movements, and they are Nazi Germany and maybe Fascist Italy. This ties into a really well laid out division between fascist, far right, and conservative right authoritarian movements, and it's the only definition I've seen which accounts for the attitudes of the period while constructing a definition useful to historians and political scientists.

Basically, working with fascists at a time when it looked like they might dominate the world doesn't mean you are one. I just finished doing some work on Franco and Spain and it's really clear that largely the prominence of the falange in constructing Franco's regime was to his own benefit and not theirs.

Can you explain to me in a nutshell what the Spanish civil war was about?

Hey, I never said he was perfect. He was till breddy good tho.

In a nutshell? It was an military coup by the right-wing "nationalists" against a weak government headed by a left-coalition of "republicans", which failed and blew out into civil war.
(The quotation marks don't mean I think the titles are wrong, I just want to indicate that these groups had huge ideological diversity within them)

Franco saved Spain from 70 years of Soviet domination.

p. 27: “If one applies methodical concepts to the United States, one sees that within a few decades the corporate power of capital crushed and destroyed the Native Americans and Puritans, the free and independent citizenry, and the independent farming class. If one may use a frequent and often misused word, human freedom itself was destroyed. The methods were different, but the results identical with what happened under Bolshevism, with the same ice-cold contempt for humanity.”

the Okie migration to California in the 1930’s came to shit.”With very few exceptions it was the best entrepreneurs and freedomers that met its bitter fate here: Americans from formerly good indentured farming families. And their fate is a terrible accusation against the American system, which reduces people to numbers and sees everything only from a single standpoint: profit. May the world collapse, may hundreds of thousands, even millions perish — as long as the profits are good. What kind of world is it in which workers prefer to sleep in the fields rather than back in camp out of fear that otherwise someone else will steal their job the next morning! And all this for 60 cents a day...

The point is that most jobs aren't even required anymore, industry is largely automated and most office workers do nothing but pointless presentations and phonecalls
So your job is unfullfilling compared to the future where you plowed a field and reaped the rewards of your work
Also most jobs are bullshit part time shit created by politicians so they can say 'HEY LOOK WE BROUGHT UNEMPLOYEMENT DOWN TEE HEE'

When i worked in a shipbroker i did phonecalls all fucking day to get a charter contract and the only contracts we got the client was desperate/decided enough so that he would still book it with us even if i was never there
Im so glad i got out and got in the coastguard, honest work for the goverment and maximum job security , fuck 'job hunting' 'careers' and all that yuppie bullshit
People should get state assigned jobs and all the rest get free basic income ( the ones with jobs are the most talented and get even more money)

Job hunting is the most degrading and disgusting practice in the world

By that logic the UK is Fascist since the Govt is Conservative and it's Capitalist in nature.

>>1247601

Both France and the UK pussyfooted around intervention but were definitely sympathetic to the Republicans. The USSR, a non-Western, non-Capitalist country was the biggest donor to the Republican cause through their aid of the Communist (ML) Party

Coup attempt by the military which was supported by the clergy, rural folk, most of the military, and falange against the weak Republican government of liberals, socialists, urban folk, and trade unionists. The coup failed and led to civil war. Mind you that in the 100 years prior there was constant infighting and regime changes.

His method was off the mark but his point was a valid one

The anon he was quoting was having fun with symbols, but behind symbols, or the way we want things to be, is an actual reality, or the way things actually are.

Breaking people down into black and white terms like "lions vs sheep" is grossly over-simplifying human behavior

Male lions fight off the rival male lions who come to fuck their shit up. All the female hunting in the world doesn't mean anything if you're all dead.

>The reason female lions keep a male around is to protect them from other male lions.

Doesn't that technically make them "race" traitors, since they're hunting their own species into extinction? I mean it's not like Hyenas are cannibalizing each other out of existence and they're doing ok.
