@Rjfenix I don't think the majority of SJWs are not 'far-left', it is becoming mainstream. As Ace said, a more accurate description of 'far' would be commies or the DSA.

they were supported by wealthy businessmen and nationalists, and privatised a shit tonne of industry

I'm not sure the historical Nazis really matter too much anymore, and certainly aren't what everyone actually cares about.

@Ace K The Nazis were practising socialism into the war. It was a workers party.

valid point lol @pratel

@pratel true the original Nazis are nearly extinct. but if the Far right and the far left realize they could come together for socialism we would have a big problem.

something to keep in mind Spooky is that 'workers' is a misnomer. This tweet thread pretty much sums it up https://twitter.com/MikeStuchbery_/status/898255481428361216

I'm not reading that sack of shit.

Lol stuchbery
He also doesn't explain what makes them right wing

He is a complete cunt and not worth my time. Find something better..

If thats the crap you go to for insight no wonder you're so confused.

i like that thread, but it doesn't do a good job at explaining itself to right-wingers

I'm on the Left mate.

And thats in the UK.

<:yeahok:490945654043050004>

I'm not seeing, for instance, how Richard Spencer, the anticapitalist, anti american values cringe lord, is right wing

>anyone who disagrees with me is a rightie

In the US they'd call me a commie.

im an american center concervative so what?

Fence sitter.

😃

that punchbag is right-wing by virtue of his white supremacism and ethno-nationalism @Beemann

lol i believe in both left and right values. but lean more right on immigration

RS is anti free speech, pro EU. Thats pretty left wing these days.

So hold on, the Jewish purges in the USSR are right wing?

<:MercyWut:303986595395010564>

wait what?

>ethnocentric, supremacist ideology is right wing
>Jews got purged in the USSR
>China purged minorities

USSR leftwing, China purge leftwing.

This just feels like a well poisoning thing
>if you're racist you're right wing

and Chinese are todays Nazis.

Outside of racial policies and wanting to make a land of only 'German People', it's also worth noting that the industrialists in Germany supported Hitler in 30's out of fear that the local communist party would win elections and would bring forth a 'bolshevik revolution'. https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/background-and-overview-of-the-nazi-party-nsdap https://www.snopes.com/news/2017/09/05/were-nazis-socialists/

The communist Party in China is not even communist anymore, since they are practicing capitalism (State-run capitalism)

>state run capitalism
That's not a thing

Ace, but is was trying very hard to be at the time.

A command economy is not capitalism, nationalized industries are not capitalism

at their core, the left and right are defined by their stance on social hierarchies
originally, the left was secular and republican whilst the right was religious and monarchist
racial superiority, and any policy based on it, is inherently right-wing

China largely sits on a publicly owned market. Private business is a nonfactor in China
