Jake, #1 The Nazi movement was absolutely a socialist driven movement and socialist are on the left, sorry but it's true. # 2 Denmark and Sweden where I've just returned from are moving away from socialism as fast as their respective legal systems will allow. If you have ever been there prior to 2005 you wouldn't recognize it today. Even most of the infamous hash houses (much to my chagrin) have unfortunately closed down for lack of patronage and a desire of the native people to turn their nations around from where they were headed.
*sigh* The Beckbots are out today.
remember the Nazis called themselves the National Socialist Party
Whenever somebody writes this, you should instantly stop reading what they wrote. Because whoever writes something like that has no clue. The Nazis weren’t socialists. They hated socialists. They hated anything to the left of, well, Nazism. When Hitler first assumed power he killed his political opponents – communists, leftists, and actual socialists. The “socialist” in the Nazi party was a name, and no more. It’s like saying that the “United Klans Of America” represents real America because “America” is in the name. It’s absurd. It’s the real world manifestation of Jonah Goldberg/Glenn Beck history mangling and people who use it are either being deceptive or (more likely) stupid enough to believe it.
#1 The Nazi left wing was destroyed by the Nazi right wing, supported by totalitarians and corporatists.
#2 Denmark, Sweden, and Canada, for that matter, are not moving away from social democracy and government programs for the people.
Rambunctious is either (1) easily fooled or (2) malignantly motivated.
