If I had a penny for every time someone tried to school me with “Hitler was a socialist,” I’d be swimming in cash these days. I mean, it’s exhausting—like yelling at a brick wall that keeps parroting the same tired line. But then I remember: why am I even shocked?
Most folks aren’t exactly history nerds, and online debates are less about facts and more about dunking on the other guy. Still, it’s wild how fast people latch onto whatever story fits their vibe. You know the playbook: “If my side did it, they didn’t mean to; if they meant to, they were tricked; if they weren’t tricked, it’s still not their fault.”
Look, it’s 2025—Google’s right there. Hitler’s rise was a masterclass in propaganda, a twisted game of fooling the masses into cheering for their own chains. Guy was a demagogue with skills, I’ll give him that—too bad propaganda’s more about smoke and mirrors than truth.
Here’s a little history nugget for you: the Führer didn’t just go after Jews; he had it out for Marxists, socialists, and union folks too. Called them trash and had them locked up or worse. Real “socialist” of him, right?
“But the name!” they'd say. “National Socialist—it’s right there!” Oh, bless your heart, let’s play that game then.
Remind me—who’s that Kim Jong Un dude running? Oh yeah, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Nothing screams “democracy” like a family dynasty choking a country for 70 years.
It’s in the name, so it must be true, right? gtfoh.
This whole “Hitler was a socialist” thing is a clown show. It’s not a gotcha for “the lefties” or some genius debate flex. It’s a lazy, half-baked talking point cooked up by some kid who’s spent too much time playing minecraft and favors 4chan.
