sure if assumptions are now reality you post modernist
Postmodernism is just a rejection of metanarratives ("big stories" in Lyotard's original French).
Which fascism absolutely is. It's a metanarrative, a set of premises and a worldview.
That's why fascists hate postmodernism.
And why everyone on the right does as well.
It conflicts with fundamentalism, which usually entails religion for a lot of the right.
right < haha you see what I did there?
so I write stand up
The right conserve everything including injustice, the left destroys everything even goodness.
Im working on a bit that involves the fact that Fascism is typically antisemetic but also christian which means they worship a jew.
Which fascists were Christian?
im still working on it but most fascist I speak to are
Clerical fascism is kind of dumb.
they could just be larpers though
It's just fascism-lite in practice, like Salazar.
Was hitler not fascist?
But Codreanu was a hardcore religious nationalist and is unique for that reason as a fascist.
Yes Hitler was a fascist.
hitler encouraged christianity
It's not like that.
Elements within the NSDAP encouraged positive Christianity as a more esoteric Christianity that focused more on loyalty to the Party which was especially important in the Catholic south.
But Hitler personally was ambivalent to religion.
And was not a Christian himself.
sure
Long-term broadly the NSDAP wanted a neo-Pagan religion for Germany.
Especially the SS.
so his fascist regime promoted christianity
No, that'd be disingenuous to claim.
you the one going into semantics here not me
Positive Christianity wasn't very big.
How is it semantical?
hmm its splitting hairs
You made the claim Hitler promoted Cheistianity which is plainly false. Semantics doesn't mean splitting hairs, it means an argument based around definitions.
my bad its 4 AM
What group is it then that promotes antisemitism and christianity?
" In 1937, Hans Kerrl, the Nazi Minister for Church Affairs, explained that "Positive Christianity" was not "dependent upon the Apostle's Creed", nor was it dependent on "faith in Christ as the son ofGod", upon which Christianity relied, rather, it was represented by the Nazi Party: "The Führer is the herald of a new revelation", he said."
oh ok
is it the Alt-Right?
Plenty of clerical fascists are Christians that are also anti-Semitic, supposedly under the assumption that Jesus was a Christian and not a Jew and that Jews killed Jesus.
Which is a huge meme because Cheistianity would not become distinct as a religion instead of as a sect of Judaism until the 300's.
