WTF.
Every now and then you run into a confident claim that is so unbelievably detached from reality that there’s nowhere to even start debunking it lol. Can’t believe this guy went from Dilbert to… whatever this is in just a handful of years.
The Dilbert guy really went off the deep end, didn’t he?
He went far enough, that there’s a Behind the Bastards episode about him.

Is there really 2 hours and 18 minutes worth of content devoted to Scott Adams losing his goddamn mind? I don’t know if I have that kind of time to invest in that douche canoe.
There’s a grain of truth to this, but I don’t think most people here would accept it.
Except on one action, a strike of train workers of the Berlin transportation department, the KPD (party of the historical Antifaschistische Aktion) and NSDAP have never cooperated and fought each other viciously on the street. Please elaborate the point or event you’re referencing.
Anyone listen to the Behind the Bastards pod on Adams? It was a two-parter that was awesome. Google it Lemmies.
He was a very special boy who thought he was smarter than everyone else.
Now he’s a dipshit racist alt-righter (redundant, I know) who thinks he’s smarter than everyone else.
That took a two-part podcast to regale? Hunh.
edit: When summarizing, it’s fairly elementary, if not outright essential, to include salient points from the source in question. For instance, the “summary” below completely omits the section (wherein the host blasts this nazi clown for his islamophobia) that, apparently, went on for several minutes. Downvote all you want, former Redditors. Go touch some grass. 🤗
I imagine hes is misquoting the United Front here?
The United Front (Einheitsfront) was the strategy of the German communist party KPD to counter both fascism and social democrats (whom the KPD and the Third International called social fascists (“Sozialfaschisten”)). As you can probably guess, this wasn’t very successful in uniting the left and center against fascism, so Parties of the Comintern ended up changing strategies to the United Front, a broad coalition of left and center against fascism. This had some limited success (France had a Popular front government of communists/socdems/left leaning liberals for two years that enacted a fairly large amount of very progressive labour laws and banned a number of fascist and monarchist organisations like the Croix de Feu, Spain had a similar Popular front which ended with the military loss in the civil war against Franco)
The SocDems SPD had a similar strategy btw., the iron front, which intended to counter fascism, monarchism, and communism and was opposed to the KPD.
