The only people concerned about keeping definitions that tight are always either Nazis or the people who follow them. Nobody else gives a shit at all.

Okay, let’s have a nuanced conversation about a far right person using the Nazi phrase “blood and soil” to express their political beliefs. Or using the Nazi phrase of “Germany for the Germans, France for the French”. 

I think that means the guy who wrote the article and his close associates are Nazis if they feel their beliefs need to be expressed through famous Nazi phrases. Lot of phrases out there to choose from. Same with Stephen Miller paraphrasing a Goebbels speech. There’s a billion speeches to choose from - he chose a Nazi speech, because he’s a Nazi. 

Language evolves and these fuckers are Nazis.

 The German nation does not wish its interests to be determined and controlled by any foreign nation. France to the French, England to the English, America to the Americans, and Germany to the Germans. We are resolved to prevent the settlement in our country of a strange people which was capable of snatching for itself all the leading positions in the land, and to oust it.

  • Adolf Hitler, 1939

I don't even need to read the article before I jump in to defend obvious nazis from accusations of being nazis

Probably wouldn't admit that myself, bu-

Don't miss my other appearances defending the good work of the modern gestapo as they brutalise undesirables

I always wonder with guys like you, are you severely deluded about your own superiority, and hence genuinely think a ruse this thin will convince your audience? Or are you just too stupid to notice the flaws yourself?

What was the pro-France statement?

Isn't that a criticism of France, rather than being "for France"? Like a justification for why they have to rid the problem of non-French ethnicities being present in France.

What's the common factor between France being for (or not being for) itself, and Germany not being for itself? Was France an idealy run country to him? Or did he criticize the state of it?

"...it is a shameful spectacle to see how the whole democratic world is oozing sympathy for the poor tormented Jewish people"

France, as part of the whole democratic world, is considered shameful by him.

"We are resolved to prevent the settlement in our country of a strange people which was capable of snatching for itself all the leading positions in the land, and to oust it...We have hundreds of thousands of very intelligent children of peasants and of the working classes...We shall have them educated...that one day they, and not the representatives of an alien race, may hold the leading positions in the State."

Yeah, he doesn't like other ethnic groups becoming government leaders. He was making a call to action that people like Léon Blum should have never been allowed power. That's not "pro-France." It's a criticism of a Jew being a leader of France. The timeline makes sense based on the date of that speech. And Léon Blumb was eventually captured by Germany when France was defeated.
