We’ve been looking at the wrong dictator for precedent, and they’ve been giving us clues

This is a story that needs telling: government has decided landlords don’t need to get paid. https://t.co/9OqIBFxgMB

Blackrock is pursuing an investment strategy that will make it harder for young Americans to own homes. The Left will ignore this, because Blackrock has committed to "racial audits" and other diversity BS. https://t.co/lgtb3xSlO9

We on the Right have been saying the Left are socialist. Which is true. But we’ve been focused on the wrong socialism.
Soviet Communism and Germany National Socialism we’re both socialism, carried out in different ways.
Lenin and Stalin practiced Marxism. They had the peasantry rise up and kill the wealthy elite. The problem with that was the Bolshiveks who took over the farms and businesses had no idea how to run them and the results were massive shortages and famines.
Hitler took a different approach. He recruited the business leaders into the party (except for Jews and other undesirables). The party had more control over them, but the successful (and loyal) business leaders reminded in control. As a result, the elites who swore loyalty to him and the Nazi party remained elites.
Our nation has gone much more down the path of German National Socialism than Soviet Communism.
We’re not killing the Ivy League graduates at the top and replacing them with know-nothing revolutionaries. We’re making the Ivy League graduates at the top Woke Leftist party loyalists. They go Woke and stay elite and protected.
The government is actively killing small businesses and transferring wealth to mega corporations that they have more control over, lead by Woke party loyalists. The COVID lockdowns were the largest wealth transfer from the poor, working, and middle class to the rich in history. The lockdowns killed small businesses while growing Amazon and big box stores which were exempt. Small landlords are being bankrupted while assets companies worth billions and trillions become the largest property owners in America.
We are becoming a nation of mega corporations run by party loyalists who have greater and greater control of every aspect of our lives, while the government has more and more influence in central economic planning, e.g. what sorts of energy generation technology we can use, what sorts of vehicles we can buy, etc.
We should have realized that they called us Nazis out of pure projection.
