Also why are things right or left? Maybe it is a circle, or even a figure eight.
I've always been a fan of the trapezoid.

It works from an economic perspective.
Doesn't work from a social perspective.
Come to think of it, there are almost the same. Communism is complete gubment control. Hitler was trying to take over things too.
Hitler felt the Jews had too much control, and wanted to take it from them. Lenin and his ilk felt the rich people had too much control, and took it from them. But I think Hitler, at some point would pull a China, and let Germans
have control back. Where as in the Commies will keep control.
Nazis were not leftists you goofs.
No. You are thinking totalitarianism vs. anarchy diagram.Your diagram does not work at all.
Maybe you are thinking of different words.
There is nothing to refute you goof. You don't show any grasp of what Germany was like prior to and during Hitler's life. There is no mention of how fascism is a rational function of capitalism. There is no mention of how Italy and Spain fit into Hitler's movement ideologically. Its just a typical Pixelated thread where you go around yelling at people who don't agree with you and high five people who do. Your thesis is not well thought out, fully lacking a historical context, cherry picking and dumb. Maybe you should try reading some more about fascism and history before you try and make claims about one of the most studied individuals and time periods.I understand your feelings and opinion but they do not matter to me. You have not refuted anything I put forth. Go back to the diaper changing table your parents are worried to death.

The Nazi's were far right socially and economically left.
Not sure what that means. I am not changing the actions of the third reich. Just giving definitions and putting things in proper place according there where they belong when words mean what they mean...how anti-leftist of me.
Top notch postTL/DR you don't know what right means in any meaningful historical context. Monarchies, aristocratic dictatorships, nationalist authoritarian regimes, theocracies are not left just because they don't follow the economic missives of Hyek. Genghis Kan was not left.
Tradition, hierarchy, rate of change, etc. are more meaningful. Please spend at least a few seconds understanding the historical origin the terms left and right (from the French Revolution) before repeating this nonesense. The right referred to royalists who were reacting to the progressive agenda of the left.
Nazis find their place on the right as they appeal to a reinvented past through a hyper form of nationalism. They are not bound by the reality of true history at all and nationalistic legends become complete myth under the nazis, but the dynamic is the same if only put on steroids (and their role in history is very similar to the ultra royalists of France from which the term was coined).
Veiled Hitler love thread.
Alt-Reicher spotted.
This is poetry imoWorst thesis of all time. Stunningly idiotic.
The salt-right has always not only faked current news but also faked historical news. When reality doesn't support your ideas the rational approach is to create a make believe world and fly on wings of imagination in the fact free sky.
I understand that the term left and right comes from what side you sat on in a particular place in france at a particular time. If you want to define it today by this, then it would make no sense as the french revolution is long gone.
All I am doing is giving what left and right actually means now that we took the term from france.
When you look at my definition of left and right which is correct, the terms make sense.
Also, please learn something and read the DEFINITION FROM DIFFEN, right here, there words not mine.
"The fundamental differences between left-wing and right-wing ideologies center around the the rights of individuals vs. the power of the government. Left-wing beliefs are liberal in that they believe society is best served with an expanded role for the government. People on the right believe that the best outcome for society is achieved when individual rights and civil liberties are paramount and the role — and especially the power — of the government is minimized."

See how this makes sense. One side is the opposite of the other.
Hitler is not the opposite of Stalin.
