They had a heavy influence on the brownshirts at the time

@Various Communist Penguins#6583 depends on how you interpret it

They took the socialist aspect of national socialism very seriously

<:thinkCorn:325807823441231874>

Wait.

They saw Hitler as betraying the socialism inherent in the ideas of national socialism since the 25 points of national socialism called for the communalizalition of land the nationalization of heavy industry

Was there occrunce of a democratic country having only one party without that party eliminating the other parties?

What do you mean?

Like it had multiple parties beforehand

But slowly all of them got disbanded

Well before the rise of the Nazis there were multiple parties, yes

And only one remained

But the Straserites were faction within the nazi party that were hard core socialists

That eventually got killed off by the traitor hitler

Anyway, in 1934, Hitler ended up killing off the Strasserites and limting the power of the brownshirts during what was called the "night of the long knives"

Lol

Because he was backed by industrialists who didn't like the fact that he had so many socialists in his party

During this purge Otto Strassers brother "Gregor Strasser" was killed

Otto Strasser had left the Nazi party prior to that because he knew what was going to happen

Is the National Democratic party in Germany really national socialist?

not sure about that

but I have a good understanding of the early history of the nazi party

and Hitlers betrayal to socialism

anyway

Otto and Hitler never really got along

After Hitler killed his brother Gregor, he started his own national resistance group called the "black front"

Here is their flag.

I should photoshop this into the Red Phoenix.

As I stated previously, he wanted the elimination of private property, the end to the war in Europe, a European confederation and workers councils under an elected lifetime president which would essentially be a strongman

He wanted elected managers within industry. The managers would own 1/3rd of profits, the state 1/3rd and the workers 1/3rd

Much better than sword and sicle.

It's a nice flag

Very aesthetic

I wonder if @I have Moved is still here tbh?

otherwise I'd be going over this for nothing

Is of ok. You shall tell us more tbh

Alright comrade, I shall tell you more of this misunderstood socialist hero

Anyway, he is widely misunderstood because he was a member of the nazi party originally

the wikipedia article about him literally says he just "hated jews"

when infact that's not true
