Comments on: Strasser and National Bolshevism [1] http://www.thecivicplatform.com/2007/08/28/strasser-and-national-bolshevism-1/ The Civic Platform has been launched to discuss and debate issues related to the West viewed as a cultural compound of Greco-Roman, Christian, and Germanic past. We firmly believe that race informs culture and is a necessary precondition for cultural identity and integrity. Hence, this political vehicle is dedicated to the preservation of the ethnic genetic interests (EGI) of people of European ancestry. Furthermore, since the West faces a demographic crisis of unprecedented proportions (for example, in 1950 Whites represented 30 percent of the world's population. This number will plummet to 8 percent by 2050), we hold that the current trends threatening the racial, historical, and cultural identities of people of European ancestry must be stopped and reversed, if the West is to survive and endure as a distinct racial, historical, and cultural entity.

He doesn't qualify because Hitler never had heard of his (hardly succesful) counterpart in Czechnia. Also, you use wikipedia as a reference?? The holocaust for example is not open to discussion, it's a Jewish e-stronghold!

As coherent as any movement ever had. Czechs didn't come up with the name but Germans residing in what eventually became Chechoslovakia did. As to Maurice Barres, I don't know what you're talking about. But at any rate, Hitler wasn't the first individual who married nationalism with a non-Marxist, organic, völkisch socialism. He was just the most successful. The NSDAP had a coherent ideology. As coherent as any movement ever had.

At Wikipedia, try to say that the Nazis were socialist and you will get a thumpin'. The original program was brought over from the Austrian DAP to the German DAP which then changed its name to the NSDAP. Originally the Czechs came up with that name and so did Maurice Barres a Frenchman. The Germans only copied them. But trying to make head or tails of the ideology of the German Nationalist Socialist Workers Party is practically useless. What Hitler thought at the moment--that is what Hitler did. He was never beholden to any ideology, even his own--only what could get him into power and keep him there is what mattered most. To think that there was any sort of 'intelligence' that governed there is nonsense. There is a movement afoot to deny that the NSDAP was ever “socialist”.

Their ideologists are known to fill in the creed by their own personal ideas. Such was the case with Strasser as well, but the ideology has always interested me because it opens up to where National-Socialism is just irritatingly inflexible. Great essay Friedrich! I've read both parts and it's very well written, this thing is going straight into my archives. But I suppose you will still write some things on the ideology itself too? These two parts being the first installment? Looking forward to more on the ideology! Good job!
