A) Don't go there. That is a trap question. If i say no, then i'll get flamed and probably banned from this board. If i say yes, then i'll be implying that i am indeed a Nazi, and i'll get flamed and probably banned from this board.
B) I am not a Nazi. Nazi by definition is a socialist party to promote the working class and encouraging a dictator. I don't particularly think the working class is better than anyone else.
Strictly speaking, i am a Fascist for general politics, but a republican for US purposes.
I'll create a thread at a later time to describe my ideal government.
I personally don't like Monarchy too much. That creates too much of a "Its not what you know, its who you know" situation. I personally prefer military dictatorships to Monarchies. At least -they- show that they have experience in leading -something-. lol.

Thats not true at all after Hitler took over in the early 20s he severed its tenuous left-wing roots and moved to the far-right,why do u think facists were on the far-right of the scale,just because they were called socialists doesn't mean anything.
I am an aristocrat. I love liberty; I hate equality.

What is Whiggery? A leveling, rancorous, rational sort of mind, that never looked out of the eye of a saint , or out of a drunkard's eye. All's Whiggery now, but we old men are massed against the world.
W.B Yeats

Naziism has right wing legal tendencies, left wing economic tendencies.
What right wing legal tendencies does Naziism have? And please, tie your answer to actual Nazi policies, not your perception of whjat a Nazi is.
Sorry, I see you were not the person I should have directed the question to. Anyway, this was a very poor quiz with serious validity problems. Placement of "Nazis" to the right is simply a ploy of the left that has gained acceptance in the pop culture. Serious students of politics typically place Nazi's to the far left of the political spectrum. Their only non-left tendency is the emphasis on nationalism. However, I think extreme nationalism is neither left nor right, it just falls on the kook dimension.
God . . .even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ--by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2:4-5 ESV
A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent. . . . John Calvin

Naziism generally promotes conservative policies, repression of personal freedoms, and a call to "old glory." That is all right wing. The leftism in naziism is its economic policy, because it promotes state property.
How does a repression of personal freedoms equate with conservative policy?
Generally, right wing politics encoruage adherence to tradition and moral principle rather than personal freedom. Left wing policies encourage liberalism. Certainly, no person can say that Naziism is a liberal idealogy.
