Why do klan talking points sound so much like conservative talking points?

Question

only taken to the extreme?

SOME KLAN QUOTES FROM THE JEWISH ADL:

"Enemies from within are destroying the United States of America. An unholy coalition of anti-White, anti-Christian liberals, socialists, feminists, homosexuals, jews [sic] and militant blacks have managed to seize control of our government and mass media. This gang of criminals and degenerates has declared war on the hard working, tax paying, White citizens … The American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan plan to change things for the better. We shall liberate our nation from these savage criminals and restore law and order to America."
(from the American Knights’ Platform)

"All three of our television networks are controlled by jews [sic]. Most of our daily newspapers, magazines and book publishing companies are owned by jew tycoons. The Klan will smash this jewish monopoly of our mass media … America’s public schools, colleges and universities have been turned into political indoctrination centers run by deprived liberals, communists and jews in our public … Jewish bankers and shylocks control the American economy with an iron hand."
(from the American Knights’ Platform)

"The Klan is strongly opposed to the insane policies that discriminate against White people in favor of unqualified and lazy nigers. We shall abolish affirmative action and minority quota systems. All unqualified blacks will be removed from positions of power and influence in our government. The Klan will launch a massive campaign to liberate our cities from the black gangs that presently terrorize them."
(from the American Knights’ Platform)

Andy,

Right, liberals are racists. I guess that must explain why most minorities vote for Democrats.

Answer 1

IDK what to say about this....but I guess you could say they do sound similar. I think its basically because you are only thinking of the extreme conservatives. When you talk about people who are somewhat conservative that would be a little different.

Answer 2

The Ku Klux Klan is a Fascist group. Fascists believe in big central government control and limited personal rights for the people. True Conservatives believe in limited government control and put the rights of the individual over that of the government. The Klan actually reminds me more of Stalin and Karl Marx than of anyone who can truly call himself a Conservative.

Answer 3

Cons learned their talking points from "How to talk to a Liberal (if you must), Ann Coulture.

She got it from the Klan.

Answer 4

All have talked like that at one time or another, so blaming Conservatives alone, is not right.

Answer 5

Sounds eerily similar to rants you can here every day on conservative talk radio.

Answer 6

uhgrant - which terrorist speeches are you listening to. They speak of war and violence and say god is behind them. That is 100% run of the mill Republican speak.

Answer 7

Why do terrorist speechs sound like they were written by liberals? Such as the last video by OBL.

Saga,
Bush is killing us troops is a common theme in OBL's videos. That is often a common theme by bloggers, political pundits and even some members of Congress.

Also Saga, If you read my original post, I specifically mentioned OBL's last video where he even goes into environmental topics.

Answer 8

Venn diagram.
Big overlap.

Answer 9

Do I even have to point out the terrorist/liberal talking points?

Answer 10

The chief difference is that Republican talking points are generally better written and better spelled than the KKK ones are.

The aim is identical.
