Achtung! Bernie Sanders goes Nazi chic with Shepard Fairey

Some decades ago a wise man said, "The fascists of tomorrow will be called anti-fascists." It seems that tomorrow is already here and we may as well say, "The fascists of today call themselves anti-fascists."

Enter Shepard Fairey, the favorite visual agitator and propagandist of the American Left. We don't think he considers himself a fascist at all. It's just that when he tries to think of the coolest possible visual for a socialist candidate like Bernie Sanders, he comes up with a design that not only screams "national socialism" due to its style and execution, but directly imitates the elements and composition of Nazi paraphernalia.

In a fit of tin-ear enthusiasm, he posts it on his site: SHOUTOUT FROM BERNIE!

The official Bernie Sanders campaign was only happy to run with it, selling T-shirts with Fairey's design for $30 a piece. Black shirts, white shirts - but no brown shirts, sorry.

The Feel-the-Bern crowd have obviously found this design extremely cool. It matches their Weltanschauung and breathes their Zeitgeist, calling for more Zusammengehörigkeit, a bigger Triumph des Willens and a schneller Marsch zum Führer, Partei Genosse Bernie Sanders. The fact that neither the artist nor any of the Sanderistas could see the connection is yet another proof that they are dumb-as-a-doorknob cultural and historical ignoramuses posing as enlightened sophisticates.

This visual Freudian slip is an adequate representation of the Left's totalitarianism that is indistinguishable from the fascistic totalitarianism which they so demonstrably oppose. The same applies to their ideas, rhetoric, tactics, policies, and the very spirit of their movement. The irony becomes even bigger considering that in today's world the actual fascists barely even exist, while the "anti-fascist" Left has already grabbed more totalitarian power than the historical fascists could ever dream of.

As David Horowitz once pointed out, "inside every liberal is a totalitarian screaming to get out," which also happens to be the theme of our award-winning essay in FrontPage.

That also seems to be the theme of Bernie's political revolution: a future you better believe in, or else!

Bernie's Fascist Yearning...

By the time I finished putting together the images, this story was already posted in many other places:

Shepard Fairey, The ‘HOPE' Guy, Is Now ‘Creating' Fascist Iconography For Bernie

Meet the Leader of the National Socialist American Workers Party

Finally: New left-wing cult gets its own weirdly sinister iconography

And so on...

Let's all help Bernie go National. Socialism is good for der Volk.

Komrade Red Square!

Ironic name for someone working for Sanders, Fairey. Maybe he can find someone named Magic Unicorn too...

Nyet! Unicorns are symbols of nobility.

Bernie makes you free.
I can't wait to see Bernie in his shiny black leather boots.
And I recall Rick speaking to Ilsa in Casablanca, "I remember every detail. The Bern wore grey, you wore blue."

Don't believe the right-wing media lies! Hillary is the only real Democratic National American Socialist Workers Party leader!

Hah! It means "One Volkswagen per neighborhood, Robert Reich in the Cabinet, and Hillary is very hairy."

Bernie, Not For The Billionaires. (But is for the mass murderers.)

Comrades, we must remember to call the Party Democratic Socialism, not National Socialism. In any case, we must all rally around and support the Volkssturm (People's Storm) Sandroid Bernout Army. Comrades, there is no time for bickering; for freedom, for bread free stuff, we must all support Bernie Sanders to be Chairman later this year. Once this capitalism thing is finally destroyed we will finally live in utopia. Forward!



Behold, the sight of victory!

Yes, comrades, we will all be poor and hungry next Tuesday under the Bern, but we will all be equally poor and hungry. And we all know that equality of outcome is what counts. All hail the Bern!

I know I'm just a cut up, but Bernie the Bolshevik needs more time in summer camp to relax in the peoples showers and meditate on his story. At any rate I am sure he will have more work for me and my Party approved remover of limbs. I eagerly anticipate.

I just received this email from a reader:

Your "Nazis fur Bernie" post is being banned at Facebook. Congratulations!
I am currently on a 24 hour hold for it. But it was worth it, I am making sure to share it at all my social sites and add it to my website pics.

I just checked Facebook and discovered that the Nazis for Bernie picture is missing from the People's Cube page, along with the post itself. I swear on Karl Marx's beard I distinctly remember posting it. Nice job, Facebook!

I didn't know Red Hot Chili Peppers headlined a fundraiser for Bernie Sanders in Los Angeles. (Feb. 5) Did you? Gosh, I wish I'd been there to see this:

"The most memorable, however, was the woman who attempted a stage dive, only to be ignored by confused fans in the front row. As a result, she wound up diving head first into some chairs — definitely not your typical fundraiser, but that's what all involved wanted."
Great dive, Comrade Putout. When does the cast come off?

I don't know Craptek, but this incident gives Jiffy-Lobo a run for their money! We might need to research this newly-discovered method and deploy it at locations nationwide. I mean, the icepicks are great and all, but a konk on the head is quicker, less laborious, and requires no bandages or fancy equipment.

I think I misheard the crowd... I thought they said 'Go!' but it might have been 'No!!!!'

Plus I thought I saw Ivan out there!


(By the way- I usually retain a little water on the day of my stage dive.)

It must be great to have such control over your precious bodily fluids retention, but I believe you're right about the crowd yelling NO! Survival instincts and all. (Ivan looks tired. Maybe stoned)
