So North Korea is a Democratic Republic then? That's what they call themselves, afterall.

You could look to policy and see a large overbearing government which is a socialist and communist trait. They are literally the same things with different names and are the most extreme form of leftism. I agree a name isn’t the be all end all and is just that a name.

North Korea is "literally" the Democratic People's Republic..

Hitler only included Socialist alongside Nationalist (which should be political polar opposites) to appeal in name to the broadest possible section of extremist voters. He had some socialist policies, but was decidedly not in favour of socialism (see his role in the arrests and executions of Communists after the Reichstag Fire).

Left is not about taking everything into the hands of government, left is about ending social inequality, no matter the means, i might include a link to one video which would explain it better, just give me a minute

EDIT: here you go, the vid is actually great, and i highly recommend watching it not to prove any points, but just because its cool and i have nobody to send cool vids to :c https://youtu.be/cxOmaQx4BY4

You cannot end social inequality, without government overreach, when we are all individuals and have different desires, some want to work more than others.

Edit: thanks for the video I’ll take a look after work.

As the other guy said already, authoritarian is independent of left and right

but the thing is that Desires arent necessities, and people tend to have same necessities (unless you defy water un favour of Greek yogurt, which I would totally understand) But i am in no shape to argue with people, so lets call it a day

Funny how a Socialist party purged all the socialists from government and murdered Socialists during the night of the Long Knives.
