It was propaganda because socialism was popular and the Nazis wanted to attract the working class. It meant nothing.

Please explain how the Nazis were socialists.

And yeah there were Nazis with socialist bents, but those guys tended to be murdered in the early 30s.

It's tantamount to the liberals who call conservatives racist, when it was the Democrats who pushed soooo hard to keep slavery.

That's a rare but true point. I may have misspoke when I called Hitler a Socialist. If I did, then thank you for the correction.

But this goes to show that one's actions are far more important and relevant than labels.

I wouldn't let someone post ISIS or Nazi propaganda here so it's just fair to keep Merit's **** away. ...especially since it essentially is Nazi propaganda.

You do know that Democrats and Republicans are not in the least what they were a century and a half ago, right?

Frown update on recent events:

The way you see the world shows who you are.

Tucker Carlson can burn at the stake with the rest of the culture war sword swingers.

[MERIT] is more interested in lecturing people than having a discussion with them (especially if they dare to disagree with him, at which point he responds with insults and name calling).

66Sexy is a left-leaning jokester who can at least explore an idea.

Fluff isn't racist but he'll always be there to defend racism and racists because quickmafs.

Bit too early to say, but Windsock seems like a closeted conservative borne out of overexposure to an echo chamber on the left.

Anyone equating Nazism with socialism just because it's in the name needs to learn what both of those things mean.

Y'all ****in retarded.

This has been the Frown update.
