Sounds like a strange mix of the far right and the far left

The far right and far left have way more in common with one another then they do liberal democratic values. And yeah, the far right do see themselves as the voice of the working class. They always have. Fascism was sold as a revolutionary movement overturning the old order. And it still is.

@TheNeverposts Unions were simply puppets of the state under far left regimes. Just as there were trade unions under fascist regimes that were state controlled. The German Labour Front is an example of this.

@TheNeverposts You've just bought into far left propaganda. As if there's any difference between unions run by the state, and unions created by the state. Same result. State controlled unions. No difference. Which is to be expected in an authoritarian system where everything is controlled by the state. Do you really think a state controlled 'union' would say and do anything other than what the state tell it? The extreme left is made up of people like Jeremy Corbyn/George Galloway. Power hungry and ruthless. But much more clued up than the far right when it comes to hiding their true intentions. They change the meaning of words to suit their ideology. Exactly as Marx did. Generally to mean the very opposite of what they actually mean.

@TheNeverposts The communists didnt pander to the workers. They oppressed them. In their millions. They saw them as a means to an end. Nothing more. Just as they do now. Just as the far right did. And just as the far right do now.

red drib Yes, thats true. But then no authoritarian system likes to openly oppress its people. Take a look at the UNHRC. Half of them shouldn't even be there.
