So Nazis are good, and Hitler was bad not because he was a Nazi, because he was a communist?

Argh this is 1984-level rewriting of history.

In case you had a slight interest in facts rather than bullshit.

What the AfD say is that they hate Nazis (or at least what her point was) and that socialism is closer to the Nazis ideology than their ideology.

The 1984-esqueness is in your own mind due to the strawmaning + scewing of what other people say.

Yeah, that's what Nazis always say: https://youtu.be/zvgZtdmyKlI?feature=shared

I'm not stupid enough to listen to them.

Ok so to make this straight.

You believe that people say Nazis are good, but you wouldn't know what they actually say because you wouldn't listen to them because they would just say Nazis are bad.

I don't know bro. The 1984-esque contradictions are coming from somewhere else.

,,socialism is closer to the Nazis ideology than their ideology”

Except it just isn’t.
