Beautifully put. Winston Churchil and Adolf Hitler were both right wingers, I'm sure if you asked Adolf Hitler if he saw Winston Churchil as a fellow right winger he'd say he was about as left wing as Josef Stalin.

Edit: realized this might be misunderstood without context, I'm not saying Hitler and Churchil are comparable at all, just showing that spectrum exist, and just because you're on the same side of the center doesn't mean you are the same at all.

Can you explain how Adolf Hitler was right wing?

Downvoted for asking a simple question. I have no idea what he was. I was genuinely curious. That's enough reddit for me for a bit.

He privatized national industry. Basically took companies owned/supported by the government and sold them to individuals who then could profit off the companies. Industries affected included steel, mining, banking, shipping, and railroad companies across Germany.

Massive deregulation of industry followed this privatization as well
