You're all equally left as far as the right is concerned.
Honestly, that's just it. You'll get people on the right using hyped rhetoric about "the left", "liberals", "leftists" and other synonyms that can be used to describe anyone from Hillary Clinton to AOC and beyond. Are there people (particularly in the "and beyond" category) that an average person may be concerned with? Sure. Are they clearly explaining that they don't mean half the country? Absolutely not.
Not really, no.
The Nazis let a liberal party live as "opposition."
The socialists got purged.
Eventually everyone not in the party was suspect. The fascists will come for us all.
All parties other than the Nazi Party were banned. Wtf are you talking about?
Sorry, it wasn't phrased well. The Nazis let the members of the Zentrum live and sometimes maintain their positions, partly thanks to their strong ties or leadership roles in the Catholic Church. It wasn't even actually dissolved by the Nazis, unlike their competition, they voluntarily dissolved after losing support and it was afterwards that the Nazis passed the Law Against the Formation of Parties.
Thanks for elaborating. That's a much better description of what happened.
For the average Republican voter yes. Neo-Nazis and rulers are probably more intelligent though.
