It's not their nationalism, plenty of left-wing icons like Nelson Mandela and Mohandas Gandhi were super-nationalist along with Socialist icons like Joseph Stalin, Che Guevara, Mao Zedong etc.
It's not their racism or anti-semitism, because Karl Marx was a huge anti-semite (wrote a whole book about it) as well as Louis Farrakhan who recently gave a speech with many major Democrat politicians in attendance. I can name a lot of policies that absolutely make them left-wing though: heavy government regulations, price controls, wage controls, government-led infrastructure programs, and basically controlling what all private companies were to produce and when. So with all that in mind, what makes them right-wing? --- Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. -George Orwell ... Copied to Clipboard!

There's left wing nationalism and right wing nationalism
Left wing nationalism espouses social equality above all else, even to the detriment of the country, right wing calls for social hierarchy and an ethnostate. Nazis practiced right wing nationalism. --- But Whose? ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't think social hierarchies are a facet of nationalism. In any case, all socialist countries had social hierarchies.

I think when ppl say the Nazis were right wing they mean socially, with strong anti-immigration sentiments, nationalism, etc
Economically the Nazis still allowed private companies and private ownership of them, even though they nationalized some things. I think when you get to these political extremes there are some cases of overlap due to the authoritarian aspect --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
