I, too, am getting old.

The dreaded heel vs heel match

Ah I see. Yes, no doubt the NSDAP wasn’t socialist but that doesn’t mean Germany didn’t have socialist parties back then. E.g. the social democrats were still marxist, iirc.

As an aside it is very saddening that people really think the nazis were leftists because of the name. That’s just a level of stupidity I can’t fathom to comprehend.

Maybe I’m not getting something here, but why do you think Germany didn’t have a socialist party?
