Modern-day fascists are desperate to distance themselves from the nazis, despite the fact that the nazis are literally their idols.

Wait, do people really care if Nazis were left or right-wing?

Their leader was a racist mass murderer with superiority complex, who cares about his political views?

Let's say they were left-wing... Does that make the left wing Nazis? Mmm no. If a dictator is right-wing, does that make the right-wing dictators? No.

Do people understand these are two unrelated things? Imagine seeing a dog owner cheating on his wife and assuming all dog owners are cheaters.

The caveat is that being a "racist mass murderer with a superiority complex" is a very right-wing thing. It wouldn't be possible to fit that mold and be leftist because it's entirely incompatible with leftist ideology.

Did you just seriously say that there has never been a left wing racist mass murderer with a superiority complex?
