"popular front" national socialists were to the right of the communist international

Please help me understand.
In what way are the nazis to the "right" of the communists?

From where I stand, it seems they are two branches of the same...well, branch.

In what way are the nazis to the "right" of the communists?

National socialists believe in the existence of distinct nations. The internationalists did not, preferring a global socialist system. The German Nazis maintained the nominal pretense of private property, albeit under total government control. The international communists preferred total government control of all property. While it is not much of a distinction, it is a difference.

Nazis went for control without ownership. Communists wanted both control and ownership. The difference between them amounts to a Nat’s backside.
