Jordan Peterson (JP) with whom I almost never disagree takes it as a given that the NAZIs were right wingers? I cannot see how this is possible.
Have every intention of taking a few days/ weeks/ months and/ or years to prove my hero and the savior of The Patriarchy, JP, wrong on just this topic.
A party (NAZI) with the word socialism in their name and that was anti-western democracy shows us how things get ‘out of control’ under the rule of the far right?
I am not buying – thank you very much.
ST UnWoked & UnVaxxed! 
NAZIs were/ are not rightwing/ conservative.
Change my mind.

It’s disturbing because it means he thinks, or is implicitly assuming, that racism is a characteristic of the Right. I don’t think it is. Look what happened to Jews in USSR.

The Nazis were considered to “the right” in their day because they were anti-Communist. However, they managed to murder a substantial portion of the European population who were prosperous and accomplished in business.
Both systems – Fascism and Communism – are simply different labels with thinly disguised attempts to control the economy.

Nazis were a Socialist Party. OK on the right hand side of a politically left movement called Socialism.
