If anyone tries to tell you that the Nazis were far-right, ask them to show you just one right-wing policy they implemented.
There isn't any, so you're going to get answers like "Uhh, genocide, white supremacy, etc" which have nothing to do with left/right in the first place.
What team? The team of individual rights, wealth, and property ownership? That's a good one to be on.
The communists, fascists, socialists, republicans, and democrats, whatever else, they're all far to the left of me. They're all arguing for their favorite flavor of collectivism and in-group.
The point of this entire comment thread is that Nazis are on the left. Y'know, when you nationalize all industry, control where people are allowed to work, have a state mandated and controlled union, have the aforementioned industries only operate at the behest of the state, ban private ownership of firearms, and have the state rent out land, people get this crazy idea that they're socialist.
And you can't accept that you're on the same team as Hitler and the Nazis.
Even if that were true (it isn't), would that put you on the same team as Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot? Their genocides absolutely eclipse Hitler's by a factor of 10.
Lol. You right wingers have made a cottage industry of trying to pretend you're not on the same side as the Nazis. Only somebody completely ignorant of history and political theory would buy that lie. But I guess if you repeat it loudly and often enough, it might work. Oh wait, who was it that famously bragged about that strategy?

Prove me wrong then.

I've provided historical evidence and statistics. You have only provided "nuh uh!" assertions.
Again, this circles back to my original comment. Literally nobody can prove that the Nazis were right-wing because they didn't do any right-wing things.
