silence7Trump Finally Drops the Anti-Semitism Pretext | The latest letter to Harvard makes clear that the administration’s goal is to punish liberal institutions for the crime of being liberal.
lol, as if Harvard were liberal
they’re infamously, thuggishly conservative
By Nazi standards, conservatives are too far left.
huppakeeActually, nazi comes from national socialist which is pretty left but also pretty conservative (nationalism and anti-globalism is quite right), but I would agree with conservatives being too far left for maga standards
Nazis were not socialist lmao
During the years that led to WWII, the word “Nazi” was used as a derogatory term against the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei or NSDAP, translated in English as National Socialist German Worker’s Party
Literally the next sentence from your source:
Headed by Adolf Hitler, the NSDAP was a party which rode to power on the wings of far-right politics.
Emphasis mine.
Yes is the article written in present day, but I’m saying they called themselves socialists not that they aren’t right. Nazi politics are not easily put on the left-right spectrum. Which is why I say conservatism and nationalism is usually right
Hitler hated that term but the party was already formed. Put the emphasis on the National part of national socialism.
Socialism was also popular at the time and they were using that to increase their appeal.
They hated socialists and beat them up in the streets.
Yep. Hitler also hated Christianity IIRC, but allied with the church for their financial aid and the support of religious voters. They definitely weren’t above using the name of something that they hated and actively attacked to allow them to grab more power, and it makes them neither socialist nor Christian to have done so.
Seriously? They didn’t start street brawls with the church and kill them. They did that with socialists. There was no teaming up, there was no alliance, there was no marketing trick. You’re making up revisionist history and you seriously need to learn what happened.
What the fuck are you on about? I never said that they started street brawls with the church. I agreed with you about them hating and attacking socialists, added that they only kept the name for the party because of the recognition factor/popularity of socialist policy at that time in Germany, and then said that if I remember correctly, Hitler made agreements with the church for funding and support despite his personal feelings on the matter. Nowhere did I say the Nazis beat up Christians or members of the Church.
You’re an asshole and can go fuck yourself.
Seriously? What the fuck are on about. I said they didn’t start street brawls with the church. Me. I said that. Ok? Me. Myself. Not you. Me. Got it? Me.
You were talking about an alliance with the church, you said that. You. Ok? You. You said that AFTER talking about the Nazis trying to market to socialists, as in: You are trying to make a parallel between an alliance with the church and recognition/popularity/marketing/aligning/something with the socialists, on a similar line as they did with the Church.
AND I am the one say NO, they didn’t. I am the on saying the following: The Nazis didn’t start street brawls with the church. Notice that I am the one saying that. Me. Myself. Not you. Me.
And I am the one saying the next part: The Nazis DID start street brawls with the Socialists. And killed socialists. Because the hated socialists. This was WIDELY known, because it was literally in the streets with roving, essentially, gangs. They are not marketing to socialists, they are literally killing them openly, happy about it, and bragging about it.
See the difference in how the treated the Church and how they treated the socialists? Said by me. So no, your discussion of alliances with the church to draw a parallel to recognition/popularity/marketing/aligning/something with the socialists is wrong, revisionist history, and frankly absurd.
I’m bowing out of this conversation, I’m getting dumber with each reply to you. You seriously need to stop with revisionist history, this is right wing BS misinformation that you fell for.
Socialists (and trade unionists and yes, communists) were among the first groups the Nazis targeted.
