@PaulBowes17 @DanielaNadj @bertdove @ClarkeMicah did not claim this though. He was pointing out they were left wing not socialists.

Who said that party names did mean anything? Not I. You should read my article . But I am grateful for your Konrad Heiden reference (which you have misunderstood ) to the large numbers of Communists who went over to the Nazis in 1933. This was one of the points I *did* make. — PolitiTweet.org

.@waitmanb It's not supposed to be a compelling argument. It just demonstrates that 'the Nazis were right wing because they killed Communists' is not an argument *at all*. I know of no such book. If you do, be so good as to identify it. If not, don't be precious. — PolitiTweet.org
