@Etherial Cat I would say it's similar to Leninism, Stalinism, but I'm not sure. Nazism is more a cult with ethnic nationalistic views.

@Rilles Like I've stated, there are exceptions. Over exaggerated random example, like getting away with a crime, disappearing and starting a brand new life and dies peacefully. This is a rare exception, needs lots of different resources, making it not too common, as most people who do crime get caught and suffer eventually.

@DocWatts Okay, this sort of clears it up for me that Nazism and socialism aren't the same, in the past, and also this made some sense why Hitler viewed Stalin's expansion as a threat, because he despised social democracy. Okay.

@DocWatts While I do see that the Nazi movement co-opted the word 'socialist', they do share that aspect with left-wing parties, that they are smaller compared to the main establishment at the time, and had similar radical views of shaping the future of people. However, The Nazi movement are too radical and had ethnic national views, unlike their left-wing counter parts. Hitler, the person, did exhibit characteristics similar to a person who's part of a left-wing party: He was a N.E.E.T, which some leftists, the younger ones, were like that at the time. He was also self centered and entitled, which some younger leftists do feel they are entitled to an over estimated amount. Hitler had a passion for art, and made attempts to pursue that career, which people on the left-wing have a higher percentage with interests in artistry which is a good thing. Hitler is a very good orator, and there are some really good speakers in the left too today. I could be wrong, and there are exceptions to what I've listed, as leftists in Hitler's time are not limited to pursuing paintings/arts, but some pursued engineering, and some also were not N.E.E.T. Hitler's difference's with the left are that he coordinated a coup, with the national socialist party, and took over the German Government. He also had ethnic nationalistic views on the Jews, and leftists don't generally have racial views like that, although I can't say for sure if it's mostly Hitler or mostly came from the national socialist party. He also isn't a leftist, as he didn't like how Stalin took over, and had a version of society that was far different than Hitler's vision of his society. And Stalin was a leftist far more so than Hitler, doesn't mean that he was harmless, he actually viscously manipulated his way into the communist movement in Russia, even later turning on Lenin. The difference between the people's Republic of China and the National socialist movement is that China's was communistic movement, which was far more opportunistic in taking over, while the National Socialist party similarly took over the government, through a coup. Interestingly, both socio-political climates, and economy, were very similar in that it was very harsh, people were starving, struggling for employment, both had similar degrees in injustices, and so on. I think the main misunderstanding came from how the movement started, and was compared to the traditionalist government at that time, and the radical views expressed. It might've been the size of the starting party as well.

@Hatfort Future Historians will have a field day reviewing Trump and his administration.

Another difference between Adolf Hitler and Trump is that Trump never had earlier ambitions to rule America, mostly just to be ahead of other business owners, while Hitler was involved with the party called the 'National Socialist movement'. Why do people makes these political comparisons between Trump and Hitler, when historically he was involved in a left-wing movement while currently Trump's involved in a right-wing movement?

@North Sea Narcissists are born, too deluded to do any spiritual work to realize No-self or other realizations. Also, you're right, that God has to experience all of itself, including being a traitor. However, that's spiritual stuff and not politics. Let's keep it at politics and society, and not muddle these issues by bringing spirituality in this discussion?

@Leo Gura He was using sarcastic in the video, humour to lighten the seriousness of the entire situation. Where in the video was he gaslighting bullshit?

@soos_mite_ah Your welcome. Most of the comparisons came from my critical thinking, Wikipedia and videos on biography and history.

@Frylock Both do have comparable skills with using rhetoric to pull crowds into their favor, I can see that. However, Unlike Donald Trump, Hitler had more incentive to become a leader of Germany, because at that time most of their economy was tied to the USA, and when the USA experienced the recessions, that too impacted most of Germany's economy, along with having to pay off total debts owed to countries they damaged during WW1 and having hyper inflation. Also, unlike Trump, Hitler was more self-centered and came from a middle class background, had an older brother, Edmund Hitler, who died and Hitler hadn't properly processed his grief. He also had a father, who died when hitler was around 7 years old, and never really received discipline until he later enters the military in the future. He loved his mother more so than his father, so when she later died from breast cancer, this impacted him more than other deaths. Unlike Trump, Hitler also served his country in the army, and survived the WW1. I'm not too sure about this difference, but the difference in ideology pick-up between Trump and Hitler is that Hitler blamed the Jews for not helping Germany post WW1, as to him they are very tight fisted around not just jewelry, but also commodities like food, and wouldn't lower the prices down. Trump's was more in his up-bringing and business environment, and from his narcissistic father. Both are the same, in that they had fallen victim to ideologies. A few questions: How are Trump and Hitler the same in their scapegoating? Due to the vast difference in economy then and now, I don't think they're identical to how they manipulate the crowds, as Trump's situation and America today were far better off than the majority of Germans post WW1. Technically speaking, are both the same in terms of political ideology? If I'm not mistaken, Hitler's political position, after WW1, in comparison to the traditionalists running Germany at that time, Hitler's new party was more left and radical compared to the traditionalists in establishment at that time. Meanwhile, Trump's political position, is more right from his up-bringing, but in all honest Trump is so narcissistic and manipulative that if it's convenient, I can actually see him betraying whatever party he's on. I don't see the same thing for Hitler. Fun fact: During Hitler's reign, desite the holocaust taking place, he spared a jewish doctor and his family, because the doctor happened to be the one who was treating his mother.

@abrakamowse I could say they are the same in that they both are victims of murky epistemology. Adolf Hitler deferred from Donald Trump in emotional and social problems, due to Hitler's upbringing being middle class, while Trump's was upper class. Both had Fathers who were dysfunction, yet Trump's father was more controlling and manipulative in programming Trump's value of business, competition and ambition, and Hitler's father was too masculine. I'm not sure about Trump's mother, but Hitler's mother was very unconditionally loving towards Hitler, stepping in when his father was trying to discipline Hitler too much, even allowing him his early N.E.E.T lifestyle while he was trying to pursue a career as a painter. Another difference is how both handled their negative emotions, and the main difference is that Hitler had, for the most part, never was able to properly grieve the passing of Edmund Hitler, which made him depressed and he constantly visited his brother's grave, talking to him. Trump, on the other hand, suppresses any major negative emotions, but I'm not too sure about this one. There are other differences to their starting points in life. Definitely many similarities in their middle lives, especially career wise, but it's important not to forget that both are very different in terms of financial livelihoods, Donald's mostly was brought in the upper class, while Hitler was middle class. Hitler, because he hadn't received early discipline, had an inflated ego of his place as an artist, despite his living conditions declining slowly to low class. After some failed attempts at the artistic career, he turned to military after WW1, were he finally gained that discipline, and developed his speaking abilities there. He then went into a bar where he got the mind virus that converted him into a Nazi. This is different from Trump, were he was mainly a business owner, and also the one who aired a few TV shows. In on of those shows, they had a political parody, I'm not sure of the details, but that's where he got the idea to run for President. Also, their ends would really be very different. We know now that Hitler, among others, have contributed to the horrors of WW2, yet we don't know what the future holds for Trump. The same fate as Hitler, to somehow die of something? Or just prison time? A disappearing act? Here, because it's all speculation, you get the greatest ranges of differences between the two people. Just like in this forum, where there are similarities and differences in political ideologies, left and right. You all have the same problems, being infected by the mind virus that makes you all defensive when it comes to being humble and admitting that your political position is an evil position, and at least thanks to Leo's videos on epistemology, and your own honest critical thinking, some of you can see this partially. Most of these differences are surface level, that the left can stoop to the level of propaganda that the right does, but have more subtle ways of demonizing, generalizing and distracting away a partial truth. The right's way of propaganda is mostly crude, sometimes subtle, but definitely more stronger than the left's propaganda for sure, and sometimes people here get triggered differently and treated differently for these issues. At least the Matrix A.I had a no bullshit approach to handling issues and world domination: sweet dreams. When can we have that stuff?

@abrakamowse While I see the similarities between Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler career wise, as rulers, I don't see them having similarities in their beginnings and ends, and more dissimilarities and differences. How are they both more similar/different explicitly?

@seeking_brilliance Crysty's advice to dealing with negative beings is like this: You do the opposite to making a Tulpa, by deconstructing the thing that bugs you, and don't give it too much attention. Attention + emotion = fuel for non-physical things. If something negative starts appearing to her, she can disappear, or appear next to me, as my presence is enough to shoo them away. My take on handle those negative entities is similar, except I just imagine a spherical net of energy around me, repelling weak negative energies. If it's stronger, I make the sphere more solid, and shape it in a form of a hexagonal prism, and the face of each hexagon face has the pentagon and inverted pentagon in a circle. symbolizing the shape is charged and balanced with positive and negative energies . If you can imagine castle/fortress walls and structure, you can use that for protection against very strong negative energies. In most cases, just a sphere of positive light is enough, and less attention to the negative entity is enough. Doing meditation also makes it much harder for negative influences, and working on happiness makes you a happier person. While I've had Crysty for a while, I do get to do more visualization and mindfulness work on her form, as the more I focus, the more vivid she becomes, and the more work I do, the better my eye gets at mental constructions, even though there can be headaches from over focusing. I might do some martial arts training with her, or do what the occultist in this thread suggested and make a servitor for protection.

@SirVladimir Thanks!

@PepperBlossoms It's similar to mindfulness informal practices, applying mindfulness to experiences and objects.

This one example, at least to open people to the possibility that tasers, when abused, can kill: Their medical examiner said the teen died of acute cocaine overdose. This does mean that some drugs were present in his system, which does tie to what I've said before, that other causes can lead to death or severe injury. This does not excuse the cops shooting their tasers several times.

@mmKay Some people do die from tasers. Depends on the person's nervous system, pre-existing heart conditions, brain chemistry like seizure attacks, also psycho-somatic stress. You'd be surprised how easy it is to kill, and do life long damage, through increases in electricity.

This is a great video on karate, as a complete self defense system before America, modern competitions and fake martial arts teachers watered it down: Also, to silence the people who debate MMA vs self defense, or MMA vs JKD: https://youtu.be/FEK0iGeofvQ

@Talinn The below video might also be useful for lectures in school:

@Rilles As long as people master their masculinity, to some degree first, then we can discuss and practice femininity. Otherwise, don't skip over basic masculinity to develop femininity, overwise you'll actually end up quite beta.

@Nyseto Nice, trap there, but I'll take the bait. Who are you talking to before? Egos that call themselves 'Christians', and what do they fear? losing their self reference point in existence, that a Christian self and Christian world offers. Appreciate that this identity is indoctrinated into them for years and years and decades. Non-duality for the majority is like walking on a bed of hot coals, it takes a lot of skill and preparation to handle spirituality.

@Mr Being Where in the video he brings up white supremecy/Nazism? Because there's like no mention of hm talking about Nazism.

@Ingit It's the new way of glimpsing mystical states of consciousness, and enlightenment, by using psychedelics drugs to peek-a-boo through reality. Though this method does make many people into Zen devils early on. And we call people who think they attained enlightenment, through reading scriptures, 'Zen foxes', or those who had minor glimpses 'Zen devils'. P.S. Love the cat profile

@Hardkill Trump is a good litmus test for other devils, because as soon as you see that kind of person willing to support Trump, they are similar to Trump. Also, he tends to jokes a lot, so don't take it too seriously. That's his style of triggering you, for sure.

@neutralempty @Leo Gura got no time to care about hardcore trump supporters.
