> It's not all uncommon for leaders of authoritarian movements to use the rhetorical association with different ideologies than their own as a promotional technique, as hinted at in the “Democratic” in the name of the former German Democratic Republic and the current Democratic People's Republic of Korea. And both are based on a form of Socialism. The DDR was a satellite state of the Soviet Union and the DPRK is based around Juche, which also is a form of Socialism. Another example would be "The People's Republic of China" which makes it sound like China is a democracy (demos = people) while it is absolutely not. Also the economic engine of Nazi Germany was centered around a planned economy for the common good (or at least, "the common good" according to the Party); an economic system which can only be found in Socialist countries. > Nazism was an right-wing authoritarian populist movement much like Trumpism False, because "Trumpism" doesn't want to end capitalism as Trump is a businessman himself who loves capitalism. Hitler hated capitalism and wanted to get rid of it. Also authoritarian? Since when did Trump dissolve nearly all civil liberties in the US, and made all political parties except the GOP illegal? Because Hitler did exactly that, right after the Reichtstag fire and the Enabling Act. Trump sometimes does some pretty awkward shit, but until now he didn't do ANYTHING closely resembling to what those people and freedom hating assholes in Nazi Germany did.
