  1. Dinesh D'Souza _ The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi

    So Adorno's F-Scale had no power to explain why fascism came to power in Germany and Italy but not elsewhere. Most real fascists, historian Anthony James Gregor dryly observes in The Ideology of Fascism, "would not have made notably high scores.

  2. Dinesh D'Souza _ The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi

    The classic document in this regard is Adorno's famous F-Scale. The F stands for fascism. Adorno outlined the scale in his 1950 book The Authoritarian Personality. The basic argument was that fascism is a form of authoritarianism and that the worst manifestation of authoritarianism is self-imposed repression.

  6. Dinesh D'Souza _ The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi

    The fascist synthesis did not view Italy as a society divided by class but rather as a unified country in which all sectors of society could come together. The fascists replaced the old Marxist divide between unproductive capitalists and productive labor with the single category of the productive nation. Mussolini called this a Fascio nazionale, a national union.

  7. Dinesh D'Souza _ The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi

    Who, then, is responsible for these horrific crimes, the crimes that opened the door to the even greater horrors of the Holocaust? The Nazis are, of course. But where did they get the idea to do this? The answer is that they got it from American progressives. Not "Democrats" this time, but specifically "progressives." By progressivism, I refer to the early twentieth-century, left-wing movement that sought to reform labor laws and working conditions but was also obsessively concerned with social improvement through race-based immigration restriction and the elimination of so-called inferior, unfit, and disposable people.

    Progressives today charge Trump with supporting racist immigration policies while they are the ones who actually implemented such policies and to this date have never acknowledged or apologized for this record.

  11. Dinesh D'Souza _ The Big Lie: Exposing the Nazi

    The third prong of this same project was immigration restriction. Progressives understood that if you kept these supposedly degraded people out in the first place, it would not be necessary to segregate them, sterilize them or restrict their marriage prospects. In 1924, progressives won a huge victory with the passage of the Immigration Act that sharply curtailed immigration by preferring northern Europeans or "Nordics" and discriminating against immigrants from Asia, Africa, South America, and even southern and central Europe.

    They have turned millions of minorities into disposable people, whose lives don't matter to them and whose primarily utility is their fruitful dependency on the Democrats. As long as the Democrats get their votes, they are happy with them and done with them.
