>Mosely was not clearly a man of the left when a fascist

Mosely saw himself as a man of left, as a socialist. British opposition to the BUF needs to be seen in the context of the threat from Germany, post 1933.

>The left opposed him

The divide, on the left was between 'international socialism' (controlled from Moscow), and 'national socialism'. This is faction fighting rather than opposing philosophies.

>The BUF is diametrically opposed to socialist roots. Fascism was not seen as a variant of socialism but an opposing force . Please provide a mainstream academic source. NOT Goldberg.

Join a library. Read biographies of Stalin/Hitler/Mussolini/Mosley. Or Michael Burleigh's 'the third reich'

>No reliable historical source will support a thin divide position nor have I heard of one.

Yes it will. Fascism permitted private companies to exist, but only if they harmonised objectives with the state. Corporatism if you like.

It could be a cunning ploy to get Sargon's attention, that devious fox.

Although in seriousness, Sargs often will use an article as a counterpoint to something he has indentified in TWIS, so perhaps it makes more sense when looking through such a lens

>That's how Hitler started, he pulled in the youth to miseducate them, to brainwash them, it's happening today.

That's a very good point that is often overlooked. The narrative today appears to be that Hitler duped that great unwashed masses into following his cause, when there were plenty of 'intellectuals' running alongside Hitler ensuring that all levels of society followed suit. There were many 'revolutionary' ideas running rampant in Universities in the 20s, with their advocates expressing the same fanatical zeal for them as anyone in the USSR.

I'd recommend anyone, including Sargs, to sink their teeth into Michael Burleigh's The Third Reich: A New History which touches upon many aspects of Nazi Germany that have often been overlooked, including attempts to Nazify religion (that's right folks, Jesus isn't a Jew anymore, but instead a glorious Aryan)
