What was right wing about Hitler? He was all about collectivism, his party was the national socialist party, he socialised education and welfare and blamed the wealthy capitalist Jews for all of the country’s problems. Replace the word Jew with top 1% and it sounds a lot like another socialist, Bernie Sanders.
The socialist historians have lied to millions to try and distance Hitler from their corrosive ideology.
"What was right wing about Hitler? He was all about collectivism, "
oh so that must be why he privatised nation industry.
oh no wait, you're just delusional
The Nazi Party at the outset offered a twenty-five point program that included nationalization of large corporations and trusts, government control of banking and credit, the seizure of land without compensation for public use, the splitting of large landholdings into smaller units, confiscation of war profits, prosecution of bankers and other lenders on grounds of usury, abolition of incomes unearned by work, profit sharing for workers in all large companies, a broader pension system paying higher benefits, and universal free health care and education.”
Sounds VERY right wing to me........ O.o
Here is a direct quotation from Gregor’s The Ideology of Fascism: “The movement itself was not conservative. It was revolutionary. Its clear intention was to destroy all the social, economic and political artifacts of classical liberalism.” And here is a quote from Payne: “The nucleus that eventually founded fascism in Italy did not stem from the right-wing nationalists but from the transformation of part of the revolutionary left.”
Hitler could not be clearer about his socialist commitments. He said, for example, in a 1927 speech, “We are socialists. We are the enemies of today’s capitalist system of exploitation . . . and we are determined to destroy this system under all conditions.”
Hitler nationalised major industry. He was a nationalist, but also a socialist. He believed that nationalising industry would benefit the nation. He was wrong because nationalisation hinders innovation and development.

remember that one time hitler slaughtered every socialist in his party?
Yes
Lol, taking it out of context really. The reason behind the night of the long knives was to destroy his competition in the Nazi party. The Nazi party was founded on far left, socialist ideology.
Hitler killed key members in the SA, which was a lot bigger and broader than his Nazi SS. This was to make sure nobody could threaten his power. It had nothing to do with the fact they shared an ideology.
I suggest reading more history because your understanding appears limited.
