That Left-Nazi-Myth is really hard to kill. But it remains a bullshit lie - spread by conservatives after WWII to avoid having a real change of policies.
Many real leftists - like socialists, social democrats and communists - were killed in the concentration camps. All the wealthy Nazis joined the conservatives and neo-liberal parties in post-war Germany (CDU & FDP) - and then started telling that the real Nazis would be the the surviving victims of the “political cleanings” the Hitler regime did commit.

What myth?
It's not our fault the left can't accept being on the authoritarian and sinister side of the political spectrum.
Leftists have always persecuted their political rivals, the Red Bolsheviks persecuted the Mensheviks and the SRs in Russia, so that proves nothing.
Leftist regimes have or are nationalistic, so that proves nothing.
So again, what myth?
