‘...destroys this stupid, albeit common, notion that Hitler was “left wing.”’
So the NSDAP (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei - National SOCIALIST German Workers Party) was not a Leftist organization??? That Hitler did not support German trade unions?
He didn’t believe in rehabilitation through work (”Arbeit Macht Frei” anyone?) like the Soviets and their work gulags?
He wasn’t against individual free enterprise or anti-bourgeois?
He didn’t create an national enemy - the Jews - like the Soviets created their own villains such as the kulaks and those who opposed collectivism?
Nope! Hitler wasn’t a Leftist at all!
No. Not every totalitarian ideology is left wing. I don’t gather you’ve read much, have you.
