In what context do you use it? What I've noticed is that when it's leftists using it, they typically mean "everyone except white males." Which, of course, is EXclusion, not INclusion. But I don't expect leftists to actually use words according to their real meanings.

Hitler came to power in part because Europe was under the threat of Bolshevism. Unfortunately, the German people turned to him to defend themselves. That is no lie. It does not mean Bolshevism is good, and it doesn't mean we have to surrender our nation to it. The term cultural Marxism is accurate and fitting, which is why it is applied today, whether you like it or hate it.

Yep. The left makes perfectly good words into the most nauseating in the English language. They are masters of that.

Even more nauseating than deciding to pronounce foreign words their own way.... Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeve.

Notice how these three words, in this order, have suddenly become all the rage? It's clearly obvious that they all get their talking points from some central source, otherwise how did D.E.I. become such a big thing overnight?
Yes, Equity and diversity are both good ones they say all the time. I just want to vomit every time they say these words.

I generally mean inclusion in the religious sense when I hear people wanting to exclude people because of their lifestyle, beliefs, lack of beliefs, etc.

Tell me... why would anyone want to be part of a specific religion if they do not believe in the teachings of that religion, other than to cause trouble?

Personally, if I don't believe in a religion, I want nothing to do with it. I don't believe in Shintoism. Thus I have nothing to say about it or do with it.

I'm thinking more of people who condemn others to hell because they don't hold the same beliefs.

That’s a pretty sus thing to state.

They turned to him because he scapegoated an entire group of people and told them they were the reason for the nation’s ills. They voted for him to “make Germany great again”. Great again by getting rid of people they deemed undesirables.

Fascism rules against modernity, boasts traditionalism, and fear mongers an other as the enemy. And only 1 leader can get rid of them.

Hitler fabricated a threat. Bolshevism is to og Nazis what woke us to the alt-right. A boogieman.

This isn't even a Hitler thread so I'm not going any further with this. If you want to talk about Nazis, go to the history forum. The USA and the USSR kicked their asses long ago so you have nothing to worry about.
