    You may have misunderstood what I’m saying. The German far-left spent its time attacking the social democrats (SPD) while the SPD were focused on stopping the Nazis. If the center and left had united, there’s a very real possibility that the Nazis would never have seized power, thus preventing WW2. And the far-left, of course, were rounded up along with other undesirables. I’m sure they had mad bragging rights in the concentration camp, though – “at least we didn’t side with the centrists!”
