That’s weird. /s
The left claims he was a radical extremist right winger.
Yes, but beyond saying that and the North Korea TP, they don’t have much to back up that tired talking point.
The left cannot bear to look into the mirror raised by history, they know they will see the images of both Adolf Hitler and Josef Stalin reflected back at them.
Socialism has been tried over and over throughout the history of mankind, and it has ended up the same way every time. A very small clique ends up controlling every aspect of the lives of a vast number of “proletarians” or “serfs” or “working-men”, using the fruit of their labor to justify distribution “from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs”, a simplistic equation which has never worked except under threat of punishment, prison or execution.
Mao Tse-Tung, or Mao Zedong, or Mousy Tongue, one famously said, “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.”
Pretty much has to be that way in any socialist scheme ever devised.
It was Stalin and Pravda who started calling Hitler a man of the Right. By their definition, Bernie Sanders is a right winger.
