    The amount of propaganda US citizens are exposed to would make any totalitarian regime in history proud. And then people will go on about how CNN is somehow “left wing”.

          To explain why you are downvoted:

          There are Americans who actually claim hitler/the nazis were socialist. They read the party like this nSdAP (nationalSOCIALISTgermanWORKERS Party).

          Which of course makes no sense because politcal names rarely have to do anything with he policies.

          They then happily ignore the NsDaP reading which is clearly politically on the right.

          Also they ignore that the nazis were literally fascists.

            Yeah, calling the Nazis socialist is like calling north Korea democratic just because it’s in their name.

            Whoa! I never thought anyone would seriously call left someone so far-right to the point of being real nazi and Hitler himself.
