It has been circulating on FB lately, and I don't have the background in history/philosophy to refute it myself, so thank you for this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03160682608207428185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5755909453311062021.post-5166974384130413532017-01-30T06:28:47.333-08:002017-01-30T06:28:47.333-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12020902251962203449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5755909453311062021.post-13959200169243836922017-01-30T06:27:28.208-08:002017-01-30T06:27:28.208-08:00Perhaps John J.

Their war-tables, their diaries and more and he concluded that nazi's in fact were undeniably, socialists and that other democratic socialists saw them the same way.<br />Hitler was undoubtedly a sick individual, but his heart and actions were far-left. The only reason people call him right is because evidently, no one wants this man in their history. Those days, socialists were in power almost everywhere. Socialism and Capitalism were enemies. Where socialism was considered left, capitalism was considered right. And left simply wanted to ensure that people believed that capitalism was the enemy. A trick to increase the fear for this enemy was to put Hitler in the right camp. It's that simple. But in fact, capitalists have never embraced racism or xenophobia as their values. On the contrary, if money could be made by doing business with a black man, than they made money. <br />The book is called: The lost literature of socialism by George Watson.Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12020902251962203449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5755909453311062021.post-69799853321864558482015-11-30T22:27:10.891-08:002015-11-30T22:27:10.891-08:00Thank you for your article.
