I think about this every time some centrist claims that no leftist system has ever worked.

I mean the big ones people like to point at (Rushia and fucking Nazi Germany) sure as shit weren't doing communism or socialism

I don't think anyone points at Nazi Germany as an example of a leftist system. They were literally fascist lol

There are definitely some folks that see “National Socialism” as the party name and look no further. Fortunately, I don’t think it’s a strong majority, but they pop up online.

I guess it's similar to "an" caps.

It would be funny if there weren't people suffering and dying because of it
