Hitler Was a Socialist Who Learned from Karl Marx. Here Are the Quotes to Prove It.
by Chris Talgo|Published July 6, 2020
--- Quote ---Seventy-five years ago, Nazi Germany was defeated and Adolf Hitler, one of history’s most brutal and evil tyrants, was pushed out of power.

In the seven decades that followed his death and the downfall of Nazism, there has arisen significant confusion over Hitler’s political ideology, largely to protect today’s left-wing movements.

Although it may come as a surprise to some of you, history clearly shows Hitler was a fervent socialist, and the Nazis were too. The Nazi party was named Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP), which, translated into English, means National Socialist German Workers Party.

It is patently false to classify Hitler on the “right” side of the political spectrum, a tactic the Left adopted long ago in an attempt to demonize conservatives. In fact, as demonstrated below using Hitler’s own words, Hitler loathed capitalism, detested individualism, and despised democracy. Although Hitler was not in full agreement with all of Marx’s ideology (like many other socialists), he certainly held many Marxist views, and he did so openly. ...

Hitler on Marxism

“National Socialism derives from each of the two camps the pure idea that characterizes it, national resolution from bourgeois tradition; vital, creative socialism from the teaching of Marxism.” – January 27, 1934, interview with Hanns Johst in Frankforter Volksblatt  ...

The Nazis confiscated guns from the public.  Today, Democrats are attempting to confiscate guns from the public.

The Nazis brainwashed Hitler Youth. Today, Democrats are brainwashing American kids in schools and colleges.  A majority of college students today prefer socialism over capitalism.

As documented in Liberal Racism, FDR and his brain trust greatly admired Hitler and his fascist control.

Socialism/fascism is overweening government control.  It is the opposite end of the political spectrum from libertarianism, as propounded by our Founding Fathers.

Fascism,Socialism,and Communism are all blood brothers. Same critter,different costume.

The problem with denying that Naziism was "right wing" is that "right wing" has never had any meaning other than "opposed to the normative Left of the day".  When the Nazis were in power the normative Left was defined by the Comintern, and any opposition to the Comintern was by definition "right wing".

It is a losing battle to try to claim the name "right" for anything other than opposition the the Left.  We should abandon the notions of "right" and "left" as political terms and champion American conservatism (which is a peculiar sort of conservatism, since part of what it seeks to conserve is the American Founding, which was the quintessentially liberal event in all of human history, along with the ground of that event in the traditions of Western civilization as a whole).

Maybe so, but the fact remains that the fascists were all first and foremost socialists.
