Brunn was obviously a right wing nut. Right wing is the nazi-like-facist side. Commie-socialists are the left wing. Brunn was more of a nazi than commie.

I’m not real sure who first set this out, but if the universe is curved stuff is right, then left and right will meet somewhere sometime but that depends on whether the cat lives or dies.

parsy, who is an expert on this kind of fuzzy stuff.

A bit of historical correction.

Nazi means "National Socialist German Workers' Party."

The Nazis were socialists. Just like the Marxists.

The ONLY difference: Marxism was class-based socialism; fascism was national-based socialism.

The Nazis were on the right side of the FAR LEFT. But they were nevertheless leftists.

If anyone wants to call the Nazis "conservative," they must explain at length just what it was they were trying to "conserve."

Oh, one other thing is that Brunn is being described as “rightwing” because of his racism.

What I try to document in my article is that that contention is simply absurd.

NAZIs and fascists are socialists, from the left side of the spectrum. They want a strong centralized government.

Those on the right want a limited government.
