Authoritarian right?
Whats is that exactly?
Well right wing of corse, but Authoritarian means more harsher stronger control, usually through policing and other figures. The opposite is libertarian, liberty meaning freedom,therefore hinting more freedom. Hitler is a great example of Auth. Right ring, usually fascist.
I'm far left wing.
I am also left handed. lol
Rikusaki

hitler wasnt right wing, especially by american "left-right" standards. if he was right wing at the time he would be conservative, and would have tried to conserve the current government or goto a former one. hitler had a new government. theres really no way to say hitler was right wing.

Yes, Hitler believed in traditional German values and his race theories completely destroys any possibility of him being left-wing.

values don'thave any place on the political spectrum
I'm a Left Wing Democrat (I'm probably one of the few in my College buisness class), because I agree with most of their issues and solutions to problems and I highly disagree with many of the principles of the Republican party such as lower taxes for the rich(even though my family is pretty rich I think they could pay higher taxes;)), their ignorance on the environment and global warming, their gun control policies(basically allows most people to own guns and even assault weapons), the way the government is giving much more power to big corporations(mainly the phone industry where they made wire tapping legal in many cases), how the current Presidential Cabinet has given more powers to the Executive Branch(mainly on war issues), and their handling of the situations in Iraq and Afghanistan.Jigsaw9798

Wrong. It does work like that. The only thing you've done is to split it up into 3 categories. And you obviously don't have any deeper understanding of how the political spectrum works. Hitler's beliefs on race is very, very anti-left wing, since it goes directly against the ideas of equality, which is one of the main "pillars" of the left-wing system of ideas.
And insults won't help your argument ;)

ROFL....yea...i guess i should have trusted you guys over my high honors graduate from Stanford professor...my bad.
Here it goes(i'll do the complete extremes of both sides):
Political: Left Wing=Everyone equally shares power equally(anarchy) Right Wing= One person has all power(dictatorship)
Economic: Left Wing=no individual owns property(communism) Right Wing= Everyone has inalienable property rights(free market)
Morally: Left Wing=No moral standards, everyone sets own standards(relativism) Right Wing= One standard(Absolute)
Those are only 3 of the main categories. There are many. So my point is that you cannot say: "He is soooooo left wing!!11" It doesn't make any sense considering someone could be left in one category and right in another.
Fascism isn't right wing. It has economic planning and the state can dictate what businesses manufacture. Property rights don't exist because they can be violate at the states whim. This is left wing economically. So saying Hitler was right wing is out of line.

No. He was both. when you are explaining a person you can't wrap up all of his stances into one thing and say he's right or left. Why don't you see that? You HAVE to split it up because he may be right or left depending on the category. So by you saying he was economically left wing, then you have to realize you cannot call him a right winger. It isn't that simple.
[QUOTE="Genetic_Code"]Leftward leaning libertarian.
Quiz.
Theokhoth
According to that, I'm a Centrist slightly leaning in favor of Libertarianism.
And according to that quiz I am a STATISTS want government to have a great deal of powerover the economy and individual behavior. They frequently
doubt whether economic liberty and individual freedom
are practical options in today's world. Statists tend to distrust
the free market, support high taxes and centralized
planning of the economy, oppose diverse life****,
and question the importance of civil liberties.
Although I have some questions for some of these questions. However, this is the first quiz that said I'm a Statists out of all the political quizes I agreed to take.
