• the Night of Long Knives.  
  -First people sent to camps were socialists and leftists.  
  -Only conservative, pro-capitalist political parties voted with the NSDAP; the SDP (all other leftist parties had fled) was the only political party to vote against the NSDAP.  
• Nazi Germany didn’t operate under planned economics or a regulated economy, instead business interests were put first. They even had mass privatizations. All businesses taken from those they considered ‘inferior’ or ‘traitors’ were re-privatized.  
• No leftist was ‘ready to adopt’ fascism.  
• hitler was not a ‘secret progressive’, nor does such a concept make sense. RWers like to talk about ‘secret this’ and ‘secret that’. Doesn’t happen. If hitler wanted something to happen, it would’ve happened - he wouldn’t have had to be ‘secret’ about it. In fact the night of long knives wouldn’t have happened at all (where ‘moderates’ [comparatively] in the nsdap were murdered/purged).  
• Fascism has ALWAYS been known as a far-right thing, and the idea of it being ‘far-left’ came from the cold war, specifically the US government.  
• Most people that say its left-wing don’t even believe it themselves, as they’ll turn around and defend things like the ‘Unite the Right’ rallies that were organized by the ‘national socialist movement’, the legal successor of the ‘american nazi party’.
   
  Things like Encyclopedia Britannica - a British-American encyclopedia - will list in greater detail the economic and social policies tied to fascism.

Communism: The world will be at its best when we usher in a classless society, where man shall give according to his ability and take according to his needs.

Nazism: The world belongs to the strong and the brutal. The weak and cowardly deserve to die.

Background Pony #5930: I see literally no difference.

• “Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have. Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. ‘Have-Nots’ must build power from flesh and blood.”  
• “Never go outside the expertise of your people.”  
• “Whenever possible go outside the expertise of the enemy.”  
• “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.”  
• “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.”  
• “A good tactic is one your people enjoy.”  
• “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.”  
• “Keep the pressure on.”  
• “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist.”  
• “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”  
• “If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside. Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog.”  
• “The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.”  
• “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions.”
