Haha what? This is a take I have never heard before. What part of hitlers ideology was influenced by communism exactly? Weird for the nazis to be influenced by an ideology that they actively hated and crushed as soon as they were in power haha
Gosh, I wonder what communism had to do with the rise of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. The Weimar Republic laid the foundations for rejection of the democratic parliament, which Hitler then took advantage of to assume uncontestable power. The major reason Germany jumped to the conservative right politically was news of the political uprisings in Soviet Russia and the splitting of left factions into small uncooperative groups.
Hitler transformed the party to be strongly anti-communist and anti-bolshevist (though mostly bolshevist was used as a dogwhistle for jewish people), but the fact remains that Nazi Germany was built on the foundations laid by communists.
It absolutely wasn’t but whatever man you do you. Like none of what you said was what I asked but whatever. Blaming the communists for the Nazi’s is just a really stupid take and is just a total lack of understanding of history.
I kinda have to disagree with you. The other commentator was explaining their reasoning and they are in a certain way right, the rise of the soviet union definitely influenced politics in the rest of Europe. But it is in the end just victim blaming the left political scene of the time.
Aka “if the poor wouldn’t have gotten uppity, the middle and rich class wouldn’t have needed to vote for the fascists.” And that part is the bullshit, were I totally agree with you.
Yeah exactly we are on the same page here. His first comment was implying that the nazis ideology was based on communist ideologies which was misleading at best.
You are actually defending the people who split the votes and spoiled left wing politicians in Weimar Germany leading to consecutive failures to form government and eventual nazi takeover. What skin do you have in this game?
If it was post-nazi takeover then I can see the merit in supporting the now underground nazi resistance of the communist party of Germany, but from 1919 to 1933 they did nothing but shit the bed.

Yeah, there was even at the time already caricatures about the hypocrisy of the Nazis:
Haha yeah I’ve seen similar caricatures like this.
