Nazis, Commies, And Terrorists: How the western world became what it fought and how to fix this problem

The western world has been stricken with the same malady it once fought; that of statism, of oppression and surveillance, censorship and the police state. Examining some of the social and political movements decried and opposed by the western world through the last century, it becomes clear that the government of the United States, and those of the rest of the west, have fallen victim to the same mentality which they once opposed- from the Nazis, to the communists, to modern islamofascism, each foe we have destroyed or attempted to destroy has stained our own so-called representation with the slow rot of statism and suppression. Looking at these three foreign entities, as well as some of the mistakes made in our own nation and others, this work attempts to detail mistakes that were made, their result, and how they may be ameliorated through a mass consciousness movement cherishing liberty, and which connects, rather than divides, the population of each western nation.
