You understand comments are public, so it makes no sense to lie about previous interactions, right?

Right, so I didn't, which is why I linked it.

In any case, yes, this explicitly is propaganda, specifically nazi propaganda. Circa 1930s, repackaged in the 1960s.

"This" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here, considering you haven't specified what you're talking about unless you mean anti-Stalinist/communist sentiment. Technically true, but in the most ridiculous way possible. Observe:

It was also nazi propaganda that Stalin (and communism) were allies of the nazis, therefore are you an ally of nazis?

Tankies are the violent authoritarian

Define either of these words in a way that excludes any state that has ever or could ever exist. You can’t.

Tankie: Violent authoritarian socialists

violent: Causing or intending to cause damage, injury, or death, often when involving great force.

authoritarian: Characterized by or favoring absolute obedience to authority, as against individual freedom.

Every single state is violent

I can't tell if you're being pedantic or you're just confused, but I'll help regardless:

I meant relatively violent when compared to others.

All socialists are violent

Absolutely not.

Besides liberals and intellectuals, both of which are not including in the list of ‘victims’ of ‘violent’ socialists, all socialists should want the deaths of landlords and bankers.

In your opinion.

The only possible way you could believe this is if you think all violence is bad

I don't.

What is your solution to people with unlimited wealth

Not possible, so next:

no morality

Also not possible, next:

and a psychotic devotion to harming society?

Prosecution based on their actions.

You can’t imprison them forever if you’re a poor country. You can’t send them to the fields to try to reform them, they are physically incapable of it at that point. You can’t let them live free, otherwise you will spend half your hard earned resources on defending against them from within and without.

In other words "it is cheaper to kill those who break the law (as written by us?) than to imprison and/or reform them." While true, that's the exact thought process behind nazi atrocities, and I reject it as the exact psychotic harm to society you pretend to be against.

I'm curious, if someone supports the death penalty in general, not in the context of a socialist state, is that "psychotic harm" that's equivalent to Nazi atrocities? Like, I would disagree with that position, but equating it to Nazism is pretty ridiculous. As far as I'm aware, every country has had the death penalty at some point in it's history, so they all have Nazi pasts?

This is really quite silly. It's basically like saying that anyone who supports the existence of states is a Nazi because the Nazis had a state. Not far off from "Hitler ate sugar so anyone who eats sugar is like Hitler."
