THE SIMILARITIES ARE UNNERVING

The SA — Sturmabteilung, meaning ‘assault division’ — also known as the Brownshirts or Storm Troopers, was a violent paramilitary group attached to the Nazi Party in pre-World War Two Germany.
 
The SA was instrumental in the Nazi’s rise to power and played a diminished role during the Second World War. The Brownshirts are infamous for their operation outside of the law and their violent intimidation of Germany’s leftists and Jewish population. It was the SA’s thuggish vigilantism, independence from the regular army.

A documentary about Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson has reportedly been canceled in multiple locations amid complaints and threats of violence from left-wing activists.
 
“The Rise Of Jordan Peterson” was recently canceled in locations such as Toronto and Brooklyn, according to a piece published Monday by The Stranger. Now, a Portland showing is in jeopardy after a pastor who had been preparing to screen the film at his church received threats of violence.
 
“Fair warning,” a threat directed at the pastor published Monday reads. “Several community organizations are planning to shut down your showing of the Jordan Peterson propaganda film. While many of us aren’t Christian and some even flat-out condemn the religion, we do not want any harm to come to your place of worship or those within.”
 
The community organizations are organizations such as ANTIFA.  They are organizations, that like the Brownshirts despise freedom and liberty.  They support control by the state; control that dictates how each individual is to think and how each individual is to live their lives.
 
Yes, this is the same philosophy of all collectivists (Marxists, communists, socialists, progressives, Democrats – all virtually the same) who believe a tyrannical government dictating the lives and thoughts of the people is freedom.  And it is freedom from the obligation of the making choices for yourself because the only choice a person needs to make is the choice to adhere strictly to the dictates of the state.  We saw this in Russia, later to be the Soviet Union, the Soviet Bloc states, Mao’s China, Castro’s Cuba, Chavez’s Venezuela, and now the Marxist/Progressives (Democrats) are calling for this same freedom for the United States.
