There is a philosophical bogeyman that Kangas created in his head.

<HIS Kampf -> NAZI monster of his id.>

He seemed to be pursuing the NAZI in "Christian conservatism." He saw the
right as Nazis! I used to think you wacko leftists called conservatives nazis
as an inflamatory lable like extremest, but I had no idea they - YOU? - really
thought that the right ACTUALLY were Nazis. This is incredible!

NAZIS were SOCIALISTS - COLLECTIVISTS - MURDERERS!

I have included quotes from Kangas web site which OVERWHELMINGLY quote Hitler
in Mein Kampf as the OPPOSITION for liberalism.


NOTE THE PRO AND CON - CON weighted toward HITLER!

http://www.scruz.net/~kangaroo/Quotes-media.htm

Liberal friendly quotes:

"Its failings notwithstanding, there is much to be said in favor of journalism
in that by giving us the opinion of the uneducated, it keeps us in touch with
the ignorance of the community."
-- Oscar Wilde

"I am personally acquainted with hundreds of journalists, and the opinion of
the majority of them would not be worth tuppence in private, but when they
speak in print it is the newspaper that is talking (the pygmy scribe is not
visible) and then their utterances shake the community like the thunders of
prophecy." -- Mark Twain, speech, 2/1873

"Nothing can now be believed which is seen in a newspaper. Truth itself
becomes suspicious by being put into that polluted vehicle... Perhaps an
editor might begin a reformation in some such way as this. Divide his paper
into four chapters, heading the 1st, Truths. 2d, Probabilities. 3d,
Possibilities. 4th, Lies. The first chapter would be very short." -- Thomas
Jefferson, 1807

"Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one." -- A.J.
Liebling, "Do You Belong in Journalism?" The New Yorker, May 14, 1960

"By 1990, publishers of mass circulation daily newspapers will finally stop
kidding themselves that they are in the newspaper business and admit that they
are primarily in the business of carrying advertising messages." -- A. Roy
Megary, publisher, Toronto Globe and Mail

And from the other side... <HITLER QUOTES>

"Puff Graham."
-- William Randolph Hearst, in a telegram ordering all Hearst editors to
promote the fiercely anti-communist preacher Billy Graham in newspapers,
magazines, newsreels and movies. Within two months, the obscure Graham was
preaching to crowds of 350,000.

"The receptivity of the great masses is very limited, their intelligence
small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these
facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must
harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands..."
-- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, pp. 180-181.

"In political matters feeling often decides more correctly than reason." --
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 173

"All propaganda must be popular and its intellectual level must be adjusted to
the most limited intelligence among those it is addressed to. Consequently,
the greater the mass it is intended to reach, the lower its purely
intellectual level will have to be." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 180

"But the most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless
one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly and with unflagging
attention. It must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and
over." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 184

"It is a mistake to make propaganda many-sided, like scientific instruction,
for instance... As soon as you sacrifice this slogan and try to be many-sided,
the effect will piddle away, for the crowd can neither digest nor retain the
material offered." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, pp. 180-181

"[Propaganda] must be aimed at the emotions and only to a very limited degree
at the so-called intellect... The art of propaganda lies in understanding the
emotional ideas of the great masses and finding, through a psychologically
correct form, the way to the attention and thence to the heart of the broad
masses." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, pp. 180

"[Propaganda] does not have multiple shadings; it has a positive and a
negative; love or hate, right or wrong, truth or lie, never half this way and
half that way " -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 183

"[This is the] very first condition which has to be fulfilled in every kind of
propaganda: a systematically one-sided attitude towards every problem that has
to be dealt with " -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 182

"The more modest its intellectual ballast, the more exclusively it takes into
consideration the emotions of the masses, the more effective [propaganda] will
be." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 180

"For I must not measure the speech of a statesman to his people by the
impression which it leaves in a university professor, but by the effect it
exerts on the people. And this alone gives the standard for the speaker's
genius." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 477

"The purpose of propaganda is not to provide interesting distraction for blase
young gentlemen, but to convince the masses. But the masses are slow moving,
and they always require a certain time before they are ready even to notice a
thing, and only after the simplest ideas are repeated thousands of times will
the masses finally remember them." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 185

"When there is change, it must not alter the content of what propaganda is
driving at, but in the end must always say the same thing. For instance, a
slogan must be presented from different angles, but the end of all remarks
must always and immutably be the slogan itself. Only in this way can the
propaganda have a unified and complete effect." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf,
p. 185

"To whom should propaganda be addressed? To the scientifically trained
intelligentsia or the less educated masses? It must be addressed always and
exclusively to the masses." -- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 179

"As soon as one point is removed from the sphere of dogmatic certainty, the
discussion may not simply result in a new and better formulation, but may
easily lead to endless debates and general confusion."
-- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

"The grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has
been nailed down."
-- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

"I have already stated that all great, world-shaking events have been brought
about, not by written matter, but by the spoken word While the speaker gets a
continuous correction of his speech from the crowd he is addressing, since he
can always see in the faces of his listeners to what they extent they follow
his arguments with understanding and whether the impression and the effect of
his words lead to the desired goal -- the writer does not know his readers at
all. The essential point is that a piece of literature never knows into what
hands it will fall, and yet must retain its definite form." -- Adolf Hitler,
Mein Kampf, p. 469-70

GET THE PICTURE?

MORE Kongas Quotes showing Hitler Fixation:

And from the other side...

"Propaganda tries to force a doctrine on the whole people; the [party]
organization embraces within its scope only those who do not threaten on
psychological grounds to become a brake on the further dissemination of
ideas." -- Adolf Hitler.

"Only the continuous and steady application of the methods for suppressing a
doctrine, etc., makes it possible for a plan to succeed." -- Adolf Hitler.

"Only in the struggle between two philosophies can the weapon of brutal force,
persistently and ruthlessly applied, lead to a decision for the side it
supports." -- Adolf Hitler.


MASS MOVEMENTS

Liberal friendly quotes:

"The less justified a man is in claiming excellence for his own self, the more
ready is he to claim all excellence for his nation, his religion, his race or
his holy cause." -- Eric Hoffer, The True Believer, p. 14

"Hatred is the most accessible and comprehensive of all unifying agents Mass
movements can rise and spread without belief in a God, but never without a
belief in a devil." -- Eric Hoffer, The True Believer, p. 95

"The religious character of the Bolshevik and Nazi revolutions is generally
recognized. The hammer and sickle and the swastika are in a class with the
cross. The ceremonial of their parades is as the ceremonial of a religious
procession. The have articles of faith, saints, martyrs and holy sepulchers."
-- Eric Hoffer, The True Believer, p. 19

"It is obvious that a proselytizing mass movement must break down all existing
group ties if it is to win a considerable following. The ideal potential
convert is the individual who stands alone, who has no collective body he can
blend with and lose himself in and so mask the pettiness, meaninglessness and
shabbiness of his individual existence. Where a mass movement finds the
corporate pattern of family, tribe, country, et cetera, in a state of
disruption and decay, it moves in and gathers the harvest. Where it finds the
corporate pattern in good repair, it must attack and disrupt." -- Eric Hoffer,
The True Believer, p. 36

And from the other side...

"When my heart is cold and I cannot pray as I should I scourge myself with the
thought of the impiety and ingratitude of my enemies, the Pope and his
accomplices and vermin, and Zwingli, so that my heart swells with righteous
indignation and vehemence: 'Holy be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be
done!' And the hotter I grow the more ardent do my prayers become."
-- Martin Luther, "Table Talk," Number 2387 a-b

"[Vehemence, passion and fanaticism are] the great magnetic forces which alone
attract the great masses; for these masses always respond to the compelling
force which emanates from absolute faith in the ideas put forward, combined
with an indomitable zest to fight for and defend them... The doom of the
nation can be averted only by a storm of glowing passion; but only those who
are passionate themselves can arouse passion in others."
-- Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf

"When from his little workshop or big factory, in which [a person] feels very
small, he steps for the first time into a mass meeting and has thousands and
thousands of people of the same opinion around him... he is swept away by
three or four thousand others into the mighty effect of suggestive
intoxication and enthusiasm, when the visible success and agreement of
thousands confirm to him the rightness of the new doctrine " -- Adolf Hitler,
Mein Kampf, pp. 478-9

"The best means of defense is attack the reputation of our hall-guards stamped
us as a political fighting force and not as a debating society." -- Adolf
Hitler, Mein Kampf


ERIC HOFFER

Eric Hoffer was a American social philosopher. He was born in 1902 and died in
1983, after writing nine books and winning the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
His first book, The True Believer, published in 1951, was widely recognized as
a classic. This book, which he considered his best, established his
reputation, and he remained a successful writer for most of his remaining
years.

Hoffer was among the first to recognize the central importance of self-esteem
to psychological well-being. While most recent writers focus on the benefits
of a positive self-esteem, Hoffer focused on the consequences of a lack of
self-esteem. He finds in self-hatred, self-doubt, and insecurity the roots of
fanatacism and self-righteousness. He finds that a passionate obsession with
the outside world or with the private lives of other people is merely a craven
attempt to compensate for a lack of meaning in one's own life.
