The media keeps telling us to look at guys with pillow cases on their heads -but we don’t see any- only BLM and antifa thugs burning and looting our cities
Nazis don't always look like the Klan. In fact, they usually don't.
Why don't you read "Nazism is a form of fascism,[2][3][4][5] with disdain for liberal democracy and the parliamentary system. It incorporates fervent antisemitism, anti-communism, scientific racism, and the use of eugenics into its creed.
Nazis/neonazis/klanmembers/skin heads are in the majority, and they are blaming the minority for all the ills in the country.
Black people blaming "whitey", are in the very small minority, and in fact, do have a cause to press by saying they've been kept down for hundreds of years in the US.
Why is this so hard to grasp? I swear to God, I never thought I'd see people who could find their way to a website believe that Nazis are liberals.
The Nazi Party's precursor, the pan-German nationalist and antisemitic German Workers' Party (DAP), was founded on 5 January 1919. By the early 1920s, the party was renamed the National Socialist German Workers' Party—to attract workers away from left-wing parties such as the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Communists (KPD) — and Adolf Hitler assumed control of the organization.
The argument that the Nazis were left wing is mostly a polemic strategy in these times that will not listen to history or counter argument. No amount of trying to reason with those pushing this argument will work with them but response still might be useful to try to avoid confusing / losing others to this distortion and the other ones connected to it.
You could possibly say the Nazis were or appeared to be or were thought to be more left-wing (or just more "modern") early than compared to the German aristocrats / military of that time and the past going back to the Kaisers and their military but not compared to the social democrats or communists of that time or any time thereafter. Hindenburg gave Hitler power because he and his supporters thought he was / they were closest to him / next best if they could no longer manage things the same way as before. The enabling act was intended to take all power away from Socialist Democrats and Communists in the legislature, who were thereafter hunted, imprisoned and often killed. Hindenburg and Hitler bonded early over a hatred of Social Democrats and then over the suppression / elimination of the SAs.
Authoritarianism can be right wing, left wing, even centrist. It depends on context, comparisons, who is making them and why.
Isn't it amazing how the left always try's to re-explain and define history so it fits to their narrative.
Back at you, guy. And also, "tries" is spelled that way.
It's amazing, honestly, that there are people on this forum who think Nazis are liberals.
