    The socialists in Germany were getting murdered by fascist paramilitaries the liberals armed in the 20s, and fighting them in the streets in the 30s while the liberals’ policies continued to nurture them. If you think that having socialist in the name meant the nazis were socialist, I invite you to eat a urinal cake, then actually study history.

        The socialists voted for the KDP candidate. Hitler didn’t gain power with socialist votes, the liberals promoted Hindenburg as a unity candidate, and won, Hindenburg proceeded to staff the government with nazis and made Hitler chancellor, unifying against the socialists. The nazis “socialist” side were no more socialist than Israelis who romanticize kibutzim as communes.
