It was because the communists were too willing to defer to Moscow. He wanted a Berlin centric world.

Which is also why Stalin helped Hitler to eliminate the German Communists after Hitler gained power. Moscow was worried that had the German Communists gained power in Germany, they would have rivalled Moscow for control of the World Communist movement.

To the extent that Hitler based his ideology on Mussolini’s style of national socialism, i.e., ultranationalism as a mythical aspiration, and a socialist program, he would have had to been opposed to Moscow’s dominance. He believed “Aryans” were superior to Slavs, Jews, Gypsies, and after he eliminated Rohm and his merry band of flaming homos, sexual deviants.

See my post above. The truth is, people bizarrely look at Communism and Fascism as opposite ends of a political spectrum, when nothing could be further from reality.

They are both full totalitarians, as is any socialist variant. Because of the true nature of socialism, it is just another form of totalitarianism.

Political Freedom and Economic Freedom are inescapably intertwined and cannot be separated. You cannot have political freedom when you don’t have economic freedom, and vice versa.

You lose one, you lose the other.
