And never forget, the links between progressives and Nazis are clear!
I'm still amused by the left's claim that Hitler was right wing. Why it's as if they don't know what NAZI stands for. I think they believe Hitler to be right wing because he attacked the Soviets, and only a right wing crazy would attack such a perfect example of good governance as Soviet Russia.
Something so stunningly simple and retarded probably is the answer for many in the rank-and-file Left, the elitists and agitators herding them though damn well know better but choose to spread disinformation to keep the herd moving as directed.
In practical effect to the individual there really is little difference between the tyranny of National (Fascist) Socialism and Totalitarian (Communist) Socialism...but I have to think an honest objective observer would see that the Fascists actually think themselves superior because they don't destroy capitalism but control it (much like the crony capitalism favored by Statists in the US today) and because as long as you know your place in the state you have a certain appearance of freedom of movement...whereas the Communists think themselves superior because of the destruction of all capitalist pretensions and the phoney egalitarianism of collectivist ideals. Both end up with power in the hands of one strongman who parcels out fiefdoms within the bureaucracy one layer at a time. That and the fact that Nazis were still nominally religious and communism is militantly anti-religious explains why they hated each other.
