Left-Wing Fascist Warns of "Right-Wing Fascists"

I'm heartened to see that left-wing idiocy isn't limited to the former United States these days:

Ed Balls: minister fears rise of fascism amid economic gloom

Ed Balls, the Children's and Schools Secretary, said the downturn was likely to be the most serious for 100 years, and his comments appeared to raise the prospect of a return to the Far Right politics of the 1930s and the rise of Facism.

His warning, in a speech to activists at the weekend, came after a trade union baron warned that far right parties were trying to hijack the campaign for "British jobs for British workers".

The row over foreign workers has gathered momentum in recent weeks and Mr Balls seemed to suggest the recession could trigger a return to the Far Right politics that prospered in the Great Depression of the 1930s.

He told Labour's Yorkshire conference: "The economy is going to define our politics in this region and in Britain in the next year, the next five years, the next 10 and even the next 15 years.

"I think that this is a financial crisis more extreme and more serious than that of the 1930s and we all remember how the politics of that era were shaped by the economy."

Hmm... Methinks this retard might actually have a point, and not just the one on the top of his head. We're witnessing the "rise of fascism" in the USA right now -- nationalization of the banks; confiscation of firearms; redistribution of wealth; suppression of religion; indoctrination of children; intrusion by the state into every aspect of the private individual's life -- all neatly wrapped in a convenient economic downturn that can be used to solidify power. Sound familiar?

It's not the "far right" that's beating the drum for fascism; it's the leftist, progressive Democratic party. That's hardly surprising, as 1930's European fascism is the foundation of modern leftist/progressive politics. The similarities are eerie, right down to the smooth-talking, foreign-born "leader" who came to power in the midst of economic turmoil on a platform of "hope ünd change". Replace "the Jews" with "the Rich" and the rhetoric is pretty much the same, specifically aimed to fan the flames of class envy - they're the one's who are to blame for your troubles! And only the government can fix it, with your patriotic support. I don't think Hitler's stimulus package cost anywhere near $9.7 trillion, though.

Achtung, traitors!
