→far-Left vs far-Right: reply
:::As a specific example, our Right was the first place where slavery was spoken and fought against (For example, the NAACP was formed by a bunch of Caucasian, republican men). Churches are where the the fight for liberation of slaves and the equal treatment of people, regardless of race began. Only in recent years has our left adopted this idea to the extreme, for the purpose of using "the race card" and the "sex card" to accomplish their agendas, and get their people in places of power. Nazis were very race-oriented, however.

:::Gun Control (of private individuals), which promoted by our left, was also promoted by the Nazis. Religiously, the Nazis were into all manner of Satan worship, while our Right is Christian, agnostic, or atheistic. Everywhere I look, I see differences, so I find it hard to compare them to us. However, if Historically they were the German "Right-Wing," I can understand that.--[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) 19:01, 20 April 2016 (EDT)

::::Very interesting discussion. The Nazis can't be compared to ''any'' reasonable political ideology, right or left, in the United States. (Well, there are racist "skinhead" fringe groups, but there are always going to be wackos in any reasonably tolerant society.)
::::Both Republicans and Democrats in the United States are completely patriotic; the Nazis carried this to an extreme: Trying to conquer the world and kill all other races and ethnicities goes so far beyond patriotism that there is no comparison, left or right, with the United States.
::::"Restrictions on rights" is a complex and many-sided issue in the contemporary United States, with both left and right making claims against the other, whether it's guns, abortion, gay marriage, whatever the current nonsense is about bathrooms, wedding cakes, etc. etc.
::::It is absolutely true that slavery was ended by the Caucasians in the newly-formed Republican party. But more recently there have been controversies about white police officers shooting black people, and "black lives matter" and all sorts of complex stuff. It is no longer a simple case of "Republicans support black people, and Democrats don't."
::::And don't get me started on "Occupy Wall Street", or whatever that was about.
::::"Everywhere I look, I see differences, so I find it hard to compare them [Nazis] to us [Americans]." Absolutely. Don't even try to associate them more with one American political party or the other. Just don't. So I have changed the page to try to reflect what was actually going on in Nazi Germany, without reference to what goes on in this country.
