Except that the Nazi's weren't even socially right wing all that much

2019-09-13 16:00:25 UTC  

But then the nazis were still able to take away personal freedoms of the citizens

2019-09-13 16:00:28 UTC  

Unless you're referring to something else

2019-09-13 16:00:45 UTC  

<:waitwhat:583236680903950355> nazis are weird

2019-09-13 16:00:50 UTC  

Yeah thats, kind of a big thing to forget about the nazis

2019-09-13 16:01:06 UTC  

The neo nazis today refer to themselves as liberals and leftists

2019-09-13 16:01:23 UTC  

but at the same time they did things that would be considered progressive today

2019-09-13 16:01:29 UTC  

But still practice basic right wing practices

2019-09-13 16:01:31 UTC  

like fucking animal rights, for one

2019-09-13 16:02:01 UTC  

This is why just branding them as being *entirely* far right is kind of retarded

2019-09-13 16:02:39 UTC  

All it really does is allow the person using it to try and pull the "what are you, supporting the Nazis" card

2019-09-13 16:03:07 UTC  

Nazis actually didn't believe in, right wing or left wing... It was just Germany and they wanted to expand

2019-09-13 16:03:34 UTC  

Sort of. They took advantage and used parts of both sides to advance and to maintain power

2019-09-13 16:03:41 UTC  

That's why left wing and right wing don't make sense in Europe

2019-09-13 16:03:57 UTC  

That's what they did with capitalism

2019-09-13 16:04:04 UTC  

Hoenstly I'd make the argument that they had more left than right in them.

2019-09-13 16:04:16 UTC  

They took the good parts of capitalism and used it in fascism economy

2019-09-13 16:04:32 UTC  

Also the differences in the political spectrums across countries should be accounted for

2019-09-13 16:04:42 UTC  

If it was just entirely socialist they would have lost the war early

2019-09-13 16:05:01 UTC  

That's why American politics is easier

2019-09-13 16:05:22 UTC  

Also the economy wasn't really capitalistic, it was socialized from what i recall

2019-09-13 16:05:38 UTC  

The economy was under the control of the party

2019-09-13 16:05:56 UTC  

Isn't that state capitalism?

2019-09-13 16:06:05 UTC  

Like modern China

2019-09-13 16:06:21 UTC  

They were capitalist but not enough to call themselves a capitalism country because nazis hated capitalism(because of America)

2019-09-13 16:06:34 UTC  

?????

2019-09-13 16:06:54 UTC  

I don't understand the economics of nazi Germany

2019-09-13 16:07:24 UTC  

Basically, it's a mix of socialism and capitalism

2019-09-13 16:07:31 UTC  

But more socialism

2019-09-13 16:08:08 UTC  

So it wasn't a lie when they called themselves socialists?

2019-09-13 16:08:11 UTC  

Again they weren't capitalist, the economy was centralized and was there to service the Nazi Party

2019-09-13 16:08:11 UTC  

GG @Cobra Commander, you just advanced to level 11!

2019-09-13 16:08:20 UTC  

Nonono

2019-09-13 16:08:31 UTC  

They used parts of capitalism

2019-09-13 16:08:36 UTC  

Just parts

2019-09-13 16:08:43 UTC  

What parts though?

2019-09-13 16:09:05 UTC  

Business, taxes etc

2019-09-13 16:09:22 UTC  

But to only help Germany win the war

2019-09-13 16:09:49 UTC  

Basic capitalism but socialist to control where the money flows

2019-09-13 16:10:37 UTC  

Capitalism upped their money value by 1000% with the Reichdollar

2019-09-13 16:11:04 UTC  

It would be like 1 million German dollars just for some clothes
