If I were a monarch, I would be totalitarian, and faaaar right. I would dictate how people dressed (no immodesty) I would criminalize homosexuality, death sentences for pedophiles and abortionists with zero exceptions, no divorces. I would close my borders and restore the Social Kingship of Christ, burn heretical books. That’s dictatorship and I know it, but nothing about my earthly kingdom would be considered “left.” (The world should be glad I’m not its king.) The Left has no monopoly on totalitarianism. So tell me in your very own words what it is that makes NAZIs left? Bc even the link you gave didn’t do it.
...” What does left mean? In politics, left refers to people and groups that have liberal views. That generally means they support progressive reforms, especially those seeking greater social and economic equality.
The far left is often used for what is considered more extreme, revolutionary views, such as communism and socialism. Collectively, people and groups, as well as the positions they hold, are referred to as the Left or the left wing.
What does right mean? The word right, in contrast, refers to people or groups that have conservative views. That generally means they are disposed to preserving existing conditions and institutions. Or, they want to restore traditional ones and limit change.
The far right is often used for more extreme, nationalistic viewpoints, including fascism and some oppressive ideologies. People and groups, as well as their positions, are collectively referred to as the Right or the right wing.” -dictionary.com
No, your link did not classify NAZIs as Left. Left and Right terms are spillovers from the French Revolution referring to the seating arrangement in the Estates General. Anyone who sat on the left generally opposed the monarchy and supported the revolution, while those on the right were supportive of the traditional institutions of the Old Regime (Monarchy). If I’m a Monarch, on the literal Right, how would I be opposed (Left) to my own monarchy, i.e. my traditional, old world ways? Traditionalists can be totalitarians. The definition isn’t exclusive to the Left.
