I know what you meant - I just clarified it to show the equal extremist right wing fascist leanings of at least as many in the other direction. You didn't catch that??
And practically no rockers that are right wingers, huh? Whew! Where did you grow up?? Ted Nugent is an extremist right winger, if ya hadn't caught that by now. There are actually quite an assortment...some you might even recognize. Kid Rock. Johnny Ramone. Eric Clapton. 50 Cent (rapper, NOT rock, and drug dealer at 12), Elvis Presley, Phil Collins, Gene Simmons, and others I really don't know, but not really rock...like one of the Spice Girls. And who could ever forget Lynyrd Skynyrd. Some I like quite a bit - Sammy Hagar, and Meatloaf. I like Ted's music, too, but don't tell anyone... But then I am not an extremist left or right. I am an extreme moderate.
Fascism not nearly as deadly, huh? From someone obviously not familiar with history. Like US history... A long, glorious history of extermination and genocide. Between us and Hitler, we got all the commies beat on extermination. Where is it you think the Nazi's and Stalin got the pattern for what they did?? They knew history. In fairness, we got a lot of our learning from the Dutch and Genghis Khan, but we did not have to embrace and repeat.
Yeah, no one goes around bragging about being a fascist, except the people like go to Charlottesville - the ones highly praised by Trump as being many fine people. You again, appear to have NO clue about the past of Trump and his family - they have a LONG history, back about 100 years, to his grandfather, of bigoted, racist, fascist thought AND action, documented repeatedly in the news, and Federal Courts. But that is easily dismissed and overlooked, ain't it? After all, he is "our guy" to those elements.
You would also likely to be one to dismiss and excuse the Bush family for grandpa's role in supporting and financing the Nazi Germany war machine through their banking interests almost to the end of 1942 - well after our kids were getting killed by the Nazi's.
Here is a little clue for you - any dictator whether claiming to be left or right, is just another dictator, and as such, worthy of condemnation and elimination. They are all the same no matter what ideology they make noise about.
No, even the extreme right wing people in the US don't "brag about being fascists" (Trump supporters claim to be very anti-fascist and I've talked/discussed/read opinions of many Trump supporters without finding one who
claimed to like fascism.). The point was influential rock bands in general tend to claim to be socialist/communist far more often (and lyrics that support those ideologies are pretty common). Especially in Americana folk (Bright Eyes, Pete Seeger) and punk/rock (The Clash, Dead Kennedys, Dropkick Murphys, NOFX, Rage Against The Machine, Sex Pistols, The Smiths based on lyrics).
Yes, communism/socialism was far more deadly in the 20th century (and 21st) with well over 100 million deaths (some estimates say 142 million) vs somewhere in the 15-20 million range for Hitler and around 30 million including Mussolini et al.
All of those are terrible, but it shouldn't be "cool" to support, by far, the deadliest political system to ever exist. It absolutely is not cool to claim to be "fascist", but among bands, who are very influential to young people, it has become somewhat cool to claim to be socialist or communist and nearly every "young person" band is very left leaning. For every Ted Nungent (nice cherry pick!), there's 100 rock/rap bands on the far left.
Most people don't know about Prescott Bush's crucial involvement in providing essential steel and financing to the Hitler war machine, but it is one of the top reasons I am not a fan of the Bush dynasty and most political family dynasties in the US. The US is more of a corporate oligarchy behind the scenes with the illusion of a representational democracy. At a local level, it can still be very democratic (but on stuff that isn't quite as important in the big scheme of things), but we have no say on a national level, just the illusion of choice on a few hot button issues that make little long-term difference compared to the trillions thrown away on so much like military/wars to drown the US in debt and other policies intended to enslave individuals in debt and also create an immense police state for when they've had enough.
