Expansion of the Fourth Nazi Regime
In a series of articles and a film, the author sheds light on a concerning trend in the West - the rise of pro-Nazi and pro-Hitler ideologies. The author stresses that it's crucial to understand that this resurgence is artificial and not a reflection of mainstream sentiment.
This modern-day resurgence is being referred to by some as the Fourth Reich. The author argues that the question of how the Germans could have let Nazism take hold has been answered, implying that the West is making the same mistakes.
Similarities between the rise of pro-Nazi ideologies in the West and the rise of the Third Reich include propaganda and mass mobilization, exploitation of fear and scapegoating, and use of hierarchical and secretive structures. The Third Reich famously used rallies, media, uniforms, and cult-like imagery to create an aura of power and unity. Neo-Nazi groups similarly use symbolic references and mythic reinterpretations to maintain identity.
The Nazis blamed Jews for Germany’s problems to unify and control society through hate propaganda. Neo-Nazi groups continue to use similar scapegoating tactics to galvanize support. The Nazi regime had an extensive apparatus including the SS and secret police to control dissent and maintain power. Postwar neo-Nazi groups often maintain clandestine operations and paramilitary styles.
However, there are important differences. The Third Reich’s rise culminated in legal political power and totalitarian control of a nation, while postwar pro-Nazi movements in the West have remained fringe, illegal, and often underground due to laws banning Nazi ideology and strong societal opposition. The original Nazi rise was in a context of severe national crisis with widespread popular support, whereas the neo-Nazi resurgence is often linked to isolated groups or subcultures without broad electoral success.
The author emphasizes that the problem-reaction-solution playbook, which was used to manipulate the Germans into becoming full Nazis, is also being used today to manipulate the West into accepting pro-Nazi ideologies. The author suggests that the actions of genocide and ethnic cleansing by Israel in Gaza, along with other atrocities worldwide, have created an environment where anti-Jew, pro-Nazi, pro-Hitler sentiments are growing in the West. The author has seen a rise in the popularity of memes promoting pro-Nazi and pro-Hitler ideologies.
The atrocities being committed are the same as those committed by the Nazis, and are attracting people in the West to be pro-Nazi and pro-Hitler. These entities fund both sides of conflicts, creating Nazis and Communists. The author claims that the reasons for this rise, including psy-ops, black ops, truth, and propaganda, are similar to those that led to the rise of the Third Reich.
Horror and enragement are created to control, followed by the selling of solutions such as racism, war, and mutual self-destruction. The focus should be on bringing those who committed atrocities, ordered them, carried them out, and planned them to justice for their crimes. The author urges readers to remain vigilant against these manipulations and to stand against hate and division.
- The author claims that the rise of pro-Nazi ideologies in the West today, evident in social media and certain articles, is being compared to the Fourth Reich.
- Similar to the Third Reich, neo-Nazi groups in the West utilize propaganda, mass mobilization, exploitation of fear, and scapegoating, along with hierarchical and secretive structures.
- Despite the concerning similarities, it's important to note that postwar pro-Nazi movements in the West have mainly remained fringe, illegal, and underground due to laws banning Nazi ideology and strong societal opposition.
- The author underlines the need for general news, politics, crime and justice, and entertainment outlets to remain vigilant against the manipulative "problem-reaction-solution" playbook often used to spread pro-Nazi ideologies, and instead, focus on bringing those responsible for atrocities to justice for their crimes.
