Thanks for the link to the Lenin speech. That pretty much explains it:^)

"Comrades, the bourgeois press of Germany and France is devoting much attention to the discussion within the German Independent Social-Democratic Party and the Socialist Party of France on affiliation to the Communist International. It is vigorously supporting the views of the Right-wing opportunist sections in the two parties..."

Cordially,

Now that I look at the 1920 document more closely, I see that it was a letter from Lenin to German and French workers, not a speech. My apologies. Somehow it read like a speech to me.

In any event, the media in America continues the intellectual dishonesty of referring to Nazis as right wing when writing to the American public when by American definitions of the terms left and right the Nazis were clearly left wing.

There is a reason why the term 'sinister' refers to the left, not the right. Goes all the way back to its Latin roots.
