Without a doubt Hank. They were all the things I said. Let me say it this way:

FDR was a man of The Left. True ? We agree , right? But still, he was 1000 miles to the Right of the Nazis, who were 100 miles to The Right of the Soviets. It’s a continuum.

But the Nazis WERE a socialist movement. Just because they hated those to their Left and Right and purged everyone and were also Nationalists ( primarily imho ) and corporatists and Statists and Fascists etc doesn’t mean they weren’t WAY on the left side of the political spectrum.
