does this post, repeated here in its entirety, a direct quotation:

"I think one can argue whether Hitler should be considered 'left' or 'right' wing too.
After all, his party was called the "National Socialist German Workers' Party" and it did have some aspects of socialism. He considered himself as neither left- nor right-wing.

Hitler was democratically elected too, after a failed coup attempt a few years earlier. He used an enabling act to transform the country into a dictatorship. Sounds familiar?"

...do as you claim, which is, again, a direct quote:

"And really Oele, after denying the fascist history of the right-wing oligarchy in Latin America..."

Go ahead, keep digging a deeper hole for yourself. Keep doubling down. I can prove you're lying all day and night long. And I will.
