Well, this didn't become "Über" popular (I kill myself) very quickly. Who really cares which side of the political spectrum should claim the system? National Socialism, aka Nazism, is not good and caused a lot of destruction and misery.

How so? I always thought it was nationalism combined with socialism with a little bit of existentialism thrown in. Only one of those is associated with the right.

The left to right political spectrum runs from full government control to limited government/anarchy. Nazis were statists, therefore, leftists. Misnaming nazism as right wing is a progressive lie that you guys seem to have fallen in.

Socialism is leftist.

Putting the word "national" in front of it does not change that.

The Dems love to paint "national socialism" as being right wing so they can claim that the right in this country are a bunch of Nazis.

Naturally, that's why it's usually only the left wing people who advocate strong national militaries or wrap themselves in rhetoric about the "good old days" when the country was better - like when kids respected the flag and stood to say the pledge every morning, and people shut up and stood at attention for the national anthem at ballgames.  Right wingers, on the other hand, are infamous for championing individual rights even when the expression of them runs contrary to social tradition - to include championing greater participation in society of ethnic minorities and homosexuals.

I was under the impression that the Nazi public mania was fueled by the image they were standing up to the oppression committed after WWI and the social injustices perceived. They believed they were the victims of Europe and were diehard statists. The Jewish were the scapegoat, seen as successful and thieving of what the Germans deserved.

Perhaps the left has changed their agenda to curry votes, but it looks similar to me.

Nazi'ism is a weird mix of everything, but has it's basis in Nationalism and is a reactionary movement by nature, which historically have always been hallmarks of rightest political movements.



I don't buy into this rather revisionist, linear scale based on economic freedom that for some reason has become so popular in modern American politics.

Modern leftism in the US is very fascistic. They may not want people singing the national anthem or saying the pledge, but if you don't buy into their version of progress they will ostracize and persecute you.

Like the guy who posted the image above, the USA is a constitutional republic. We do want a government. We want a severely limited government, restricted by a constitution, but we do not advocate anarchy because anarchy does not respect human rights. A constitutional republic's only job is to guarantee equal rights, not equal outcomes like leftists. Constitutional republics are way right of center, but not at the extreme right end.

Where does this come from?



Who came up with the idea that left=more government and right=less government?



For example, Anarchism has always been the most associated with radical-leftest movements, but somehow with this scale it becomes right-wing?



Political ideology isn't linear, and shouldn't be viewed as such.
