“Left” and “Right” are defined as the political forces of revolution vs. those of tradition and reaction. So what’s Left and what’s Right is time and place specific, and it’s absurd to assume that the political and cultural issues that define Left and Right in America today are somehow universal, applicable to all places and times. The defining issues of tradition vs. radicalism in Europe today aren’t small vs. big government.
Nazis and Communists are both Statists. Neither believes in small government.

I believe that this is already taken into context by anyone who is experienced.
