"Stripped of their romantic trimmings, all Hitler's ideas can be reduced to a simple claim for power which recognizes only one relationship, that of domination, and only one argument, that of force."

The argument of or for force is not an intrinsicly "leftie" or "right wing" argument. It depends on what you use the force for.

There are aspects of Hitler that could be called right wing, and others that could be called left wing, but the main things that make Hitler esp. evil are not very much like the beliefs that were traditionally called liberalism and conservatism, nor are they like the beliefs that are called liberalism or conservatism in the US today.


I am actually pretty tired of arguing this issue. I think we should leave that Hitler was evil.
