I missed an earlier thread where people inquired about the salute to
the flag. I am the person who made the historic discovery that the
straight-armed salute of the National Socialist German Workers' Party
(Nazis) came from the military salute in the USA, and from the original
pledge of allegiance in government schools, and not from ancient Rome.
http://rexcurry.net/pledgesalute.html

Eye popping photos are at http://rexcurry.net/pledge2.html

and more terrifying articles are at http://rexcurry.net/pledge1.html

and at http://rexcurry.net/michael-medved.html

Three terms sum up popular myths: "Swastika" and "Nazi" and
"Roman Salute." RexCurry.net exposed all three.

The "Roman salute" myth holds that the Nazi salute was from ancient
Rome. The myth was refuted by the historic discovery that the salute
of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazis) came from a
national socialist in the USA who used a straight-arm salute as part of
the original pledge of allegiance.
http://rexcurry.net/pledgesalute.html

The pledge of allegiance was written by a self-proclaimed National
Socialist in the USA in 1892 (Francis Bellamy) who promoted "military
socialism" and operated the "Nationalist" magazine and spread the
straight-arm salute via kids in schools, three decades before the Nazis
adopted similar behavior.

RexCurry.net also exposed the "Nazi" myth, that Nazis hate
socialists. The word "Nazi" hides the actual name of the horrid
party: the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The practice
is so widespread that most people who use the word "Nazi" are
ignorant of what the abbreviation abbreviates and why it ties into the
pledge of allegiance and to earlier National Socialists in the USA.
http://rexcurry.net/mediacover.html
and http://rexcurry.net/swastikamedia.html
and http://rexcurry.net/swastikaweb.html

Nazis always referred to themselves as "National Socialists" and never
as "Nazis" and they always used the word "hakenkreuz" and not
"swastika."

The "Swastika myth" is that the symbol of the Nazis was a swastika, and
used as their "good luck" sign, or reversed for "evil." The use of the
word "swastika" coincides with "Nazi" to hide the symbol's meaning for
the horrid Party: Socialism.

Today, most people would never make the connection between the
swastika's "S" shapes and "socialism" because most people do not know
that the Nazis were the National Socialist German Workers' Party.
http://rexcurry.net/swastikaweb.html

The trio of myths are examples of astounding historical facts that were
deliberately shoved down Orwell's "memory hole."

This is grossly misleading, and I suspect purposely so.
a) The magazine _The Nationalist_ was the organ of the populist
socialist Nationalist party, published from 1889-1891 (succeeded by _The
New Nation_ 1891-1894), and was *Edward* Bellamy's. Edward Bellamy was
the author of _Looking Backwards_ and _Equality_, and had a mildly
socialist populist ideology. He was not a "National Socialist" in any
modern meaning of the term.
His _Talks on Nationalism_ (1938) are usesful to understand what lying
bastards rexcurry.net and the similarly-named rexsy.ij.net are.
Edward Bellamy learnt his social and political views at the knee of his
father, a Baptist minister.

b) The Flag pledge was credited to both the editor of _The Youth's
Companion_, James B. Upham, and the assistant editor, Francis Bellamy.
This question was "settled" in 1939 by the US Flag association in favor
of Francis Bellamy. _The Youth's Companion_ was not _The Nationalist_.

c) Francis Bellamy, a cousin of Edward Bellamy, was a *Christian*
socialist and was, like his father and uncle, a Baptist minister.

d) Nothing in 1892 was "National Socialist" in any way that term is
understood in the modern world.

It does *not* tie in any way to the pledge of allegiance. I have no
idea why these toads want to confuse real, although moderate, socialists
like the Bellamys with the fake socialism of the Nazis. I have no idea
why they would want to confuse sincere Christians who tried to follow
the social Christian message with the anti-Christian
pseudo-uebermenschen of the Nazis. It is clear that their revisionism
rests on misunderstanding, half-digested information, and probably gross
dishonesty.

Your comments are grossly misleading, and I suspect purposely so.
http://rexcurry.net/pledge2.html

a) The magazine _The Nationalist_ was the organ of the socialist
Nationalist party, published from 1889-1891 (succeeded by _The New
Nation_ 1891-1894), and was *Edward* Bellamy's. Edward Bellamy was the
cousin and cohort of Francis Bellamy. Both of them worked with and
contributed to the magazine. The only example of the magazine on the
web is at http://rexcurry.net/pledgeapology.html The Bellamys had a
wildly socialist ideology that they called "military socialism" in
which they idolized the military and wanted it imposed by government on
the entire economy, to nationalize everything, and to have government
take over all schools, and eliminate all of the better alternatives, to
use government schools to create an "industrial army" (a Bellamy term)
and the pledge of allegiance in military formation with the original
straight arm salute performed in unison every morning for 12 years at
the ring of a government bell like Pavlov's lapdogs of the state was
all part of the scheme. They were "National Socialist" in every
modern meaning of the term. His _Talks on Nationalism_ (1938) and
http://rexcurry.net/pledge1.html are useful to understand what lying
bastards Martin Ambuhl and the his ilk are.

b) The Flag pledge was credited to both the editor of _The Youth's
Companion_, James B. Upham, and the assistant editor, Francis Bellamy.
This question was "settled" in 1939 by the US Flag association in favor
of Francis Bellamy. _The Youth's Companion_ was not _The Nationalist_.
Here Martin is essentially correct in repeating my website and in not
disputing what I said.

c) Francis Bellamy, a cousin of Edward Bellamy, was also in the
"Society of Christian Socialists" which he equated with his screwball
national socialism dogma. Francis Bellamy was the cousin and cohort of
Edward Bellamy. Both of them worked with and contributed to the
Nationalist magazine. The only example of the magazine on the web is
at http://rexcurry.net/pledgeapology.html The Bellamys had a wildly
socialist ideology that they called "military socialism" in which they

modern meaning of the term. His _Talks on Nationalism_ (1938) and
http://rexcurry.net/pledge1.html are useful to understand what lying
bastards Martin Ambuhl and the his ilk are.

d) The Bellamy dogma in 1892 was "National Socialist" in every way that
term is
understood in the modern world. Martin is being absurd in claiming
that nothing in 1892 was "National Socialist" in any way that term is
understood in the modern world, as if he is implying that the National
Socialist German Workers' Party was the first wacko group to think up
the absurd dogman. They weren't. national Socialists in the USA were
doing it 3 decades before the national Socialist German Workers' Party.
Francis Bellamy was the local Leni Reifenstahl. The Bellamys were the
first American Nazis.

It does tie in every way to the pledge of allegiance. I have no idea
why these toads like Martin Ambuhl want to disassociate real lunatic
national socialists like the Bellamys with the socialism of the
National Socialist German Workers' Party, and why he wants to cover up
for that horrid ideology. I have no idea why he would want to confuse
sincere non-socialist Christians with the horrid totalitarianism
espoused by the Bellamys and by the National Socialist German Workers'
Party. It is clear that Martin Ambuhl's revisionism rests on

You're right. Socialism IS Nazism. Communism IS fascism. They're all
the same thing. The uncivilised world [Universe minus (inhabited
planets + the U.S.A.)] is still under the grip of this
socalism/Nazism/fascism/racism/intolerance problem and using ANY means
(war, terrorism, U.N., sucking up, etc) to make sure we don't show them
what liberty is. This is VERY SLOWLY changing, though
terrorist-supporting places like Russia, Europe, China, Latin America,
Australia, Canada, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia are going
backwards.

YUCK! Libertarianism completes the circle back to
fascism/communism/socialism/Nazism again, because the political square
is not so much a square as a 4-D cube, but shaped like a sphere. In
THIS case, so-called "libertarianism" borders Nazism/Communism, in
their most extreme forms, which they always are in extremes. Communism
is the idea that everyone can be equal. Sadly, this is NEVER the case
except under capitalistic democracies. In Communism, those with all
the power become evil. And in libertarianism, the people who had the
power in Communism don't have the power, but the people who DO have the
power become evil. So, it's the same thing. We must follow the paths
of the aliens who came before us, and of U.S. history and advanced
evolution to ensure that EVERYONE is TRULY EQUAL.

thread that included Areff and Donna Richoux. I missed an earlier
thread where people inquired about the salute to
the flag. In that thread Areff displayed his ignorance about this
topic, so he is apparently covering for himself now. So everyone's
jealousy and envy in this thread is comical, and disingenuous.
Certainly not as interesting as my fanmail webpage

It is sad that you all feel badly about never having viewed the
photographs at http://rexcurry.net/pledge2.html until I showed them
to you.

It is sad that you all feel badly about not being me, the person who
made the historic discovery that the straight-armed salute of the
National Socialist German Workers' Party (Nazis) came from the military
salute in the USA, and from the original pledge of allegiance in
government schools, and not from ancient Rome.

Someday, if you become more interesting, it is possible that someone
who is even more interesting than all of you might actually do an
interview about the topic on nationwide radio

Oh, and thanks for not actually disputing anything I said. But then,
that is why you had nothing of interest to say right?

All those photos remind me of the "Raise Your Hand If You Got It"
commercials for Sure anti-perspirant. The last occasion I had for a
fascist salute was when my wife was nagging me about some chore. She
was not amused.
