      Not for any ‘revolutionary crisis’; Hitler’s domestic hold on power was ironclad even to the dying days of WW2. If the plan was “The Soviet Union invades” all along, one suspects that Hitler harvesting the resources of half of Europe first, and genociding a good portion of it, was not an integral part of that plan.

    Any moment now some Tankie is going to walk in here are start yelling “AcTuAlLY, the SPD assassinated a real leftist and that’s why we intentionally stopped them from forming a government for 3 elections and helped the actual Nazis into power” as if that in any way justifies anything.

    Blaming the KPD for the NSDAP is cooked considering it was the conservatives, and the centre party who supported them. Yes you’re so right, the first groups to be imprisoned and banned are to blame

    might as well blame German Jews

    what other contributions will your fearsome intellect bring us?

      Golly gee, if only there was some kind of leftist united front that was successful until the Stalinists in the KPD who took their marching orders from Moscow decided to unconditionally turn on the only other left-party of note, focusing their vitriol and their activity against the ‘social fascists’ in the SPD while the Nazis made continual gains.

      It would be really fucked up if the KPD went so far as to support the literal Nazis against the SPD!

      Nobody said the other parties aren’t to blame, and there was, in fact, not an accelerationist Jewish party, so no, you might not as well.

      Why get so butthurt about somebody criticizing decisions made so long ago? Is it just campism? Do you think that this meme criticizes communism? It doesn’t

      There are more than one or two factors to the whole disaster, but leftist infighting certainly didn’t help in creating a unified, solid opposition, and it still doesn’t today. Focus on stopping the bigger enemy first, or we’ll both end up on the firing line.

    That oul revolutionary crisis caused by the bourgeoisie causing the proletariat to rise up not materialising?.. Lenin knew a thing or two.

    Lenin: possibility of power? *yoink*
