Not that I don't expect to see some historical illiteracy or miseducation from time to time, but seeing this dishonest myth pushed over and over again by fully grown men in America is becoming a level of ridiculous that has gone past humorous.
The modern idea that Hitler and the Nazis were 'liberal socialists' (wtf does that even mean) is not an idea pushed by historians or even people who have a passing familiarity on the era of Nazi Germany.
It is pushed by pretty much entirely by one man as far as modern discourse is concerned:
STEVEN CROWDER
Every single ridiculous point made in this video is refuted specifically in this response here:
"This idea that Nazis were left-wing is just self-serving fantasy. There's no milder way of putting it. The NSDAP members occupied the seats of parliament which were literally the farthest to the right, and to the left were other nationalists, conservatives, liberals, social democrats, and communists. It was a totally unambiguous fact to everyone in Germany at the time.
Each European nation's fascist movement were comprised of former conservatives/former conservative voters. The NSDAP (Nazi Party) gained popularity at the expense of Germany's other right-wing parties in the early 1930's. The German People's Party, German National People's Party, and most splinter right-wing parties saw almost all of their support transfer to the Nazis."
Steven Crowder has zero knowledge on strasserism, the night of the long knives or Hitler's deeply personal and well documented hate of communists. Don't be Crowder, do your fucking research.
