Francis Bellamy, the Pledge of Allegiance, the Bellamy
salute, & Edward Bellamy
Rex Curry discoveries are cited in many books on Amazon, Kindle
and other sources including "Libertarian History" by the author
Lin Xun. Xun explains these shockers from Dr. Curry: (1) that
the "Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag" was the origin of the
Nazi salute and Nazi behavior; (2) that the military salute was
the origin of the Nazi salute (via the military salute's use in
the original Pledge of Allegiance) and; (3) Swastikas
represented crossed "S" letter shapes for "socialist" under
Hitler. At amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/153544326X

Francis Bellamy & Edward Bellamy touted National
Socialism and the police state in the USA decades
before their dogma was exported to Germany. They influenced
the NSDAP, its dogma, symbols and rituals. http://rexcurry.net/police-state.html
The swastika, although an ancient symbol, was also used
to represent crossed "S" letters for "socialism" under
the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nazis),
similar to the alphabetical symbolism for the SS Division,
the SA, the NSV, and the VW logo (the letters "V" and
"W" joined for "Volkswagen"). http://rexcurry.net/bookchapter4a1a2a1.html
Edward Bellamy and Francis Bellamy (author of the Pledge)
were American national socialists and touted "military
socialism" (their term. they wanted all of society to
emulate the military) and their dogma was the origin of the
German national socialist salute when Francis Bellamy began
the Pledge of Allegiance with the military salute that was
then extended outward to point at the flag. They influenced
the National Socialist German Workers Party, its rituals
(robotic chanting to flags & leaders), dogma, and symbols
(including the use of the swastika to represent crossed
S-letters for "socialism" under German national socialism).
It was not an ancient Roman salute. That is a debunked
myth. The ancient Roman salute myth developed from
the Pledge of Allegiance. The above are some of the
discoveries of the work of Dr. Rex Curry.
American socialists, including the Bellamys, influenced
Stalin, Mao and Hitler, the worst mass murderers of
all time in the socialist Wholecaust (of which the
Holocaust was a part) - the Union of Soviet Socialist
Republics with ~60 million dead; the Peoples Republic of
China with ~50 million dead; and the National Socialist
German Workers Party with ~20 million dead.
Author Lin Xun is part of the Pointer Institute for Media
Studies, as well as the Dead Writers Club ("DWC" -an author's
group). Lin and the Pointer Institute provide remedial education
to journalists about history, economics, government, and more.
They untangle those twelve years of brainwashing that cripples
news reporters. In their fight against media incompetency, the
DWC joined with the Pointer Institute in 2016 to shut down the
Tampa Tribune Newspaper.
Lin’s research skills (with the assistance of the DWC) resulted
in the arrest, trial, conviction, and imprisonment of America's
Dumbest Criminals (and the foreclosure of their homes, along
with victim restitution liens, and criminal forfeiture
judgments, in amounts totaling millions of dollars).
As part of the DWC, Lin has collaborated with the authors Micky
Barnetti and Matt Crypto. Another volume by the Dead Writers
Club is "Drug Detection Dog Training -Libertarian Lawyers Fight
Police State USA." It is also available where fine books are
sold.
