 * 1) I already explained many of my problems with this article on the top page, but in short it makes a "Hitler ate sugar"-level argument of a red-brown alliance and has questionable relevance to the greater history of Naziism and communism as a hole. It may be worth a footnote in a page like National Bolshevism, but not really its own article. Plutocow (talk) 20:23, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Per my comments on the talk page.(Though I wouldn't object to Merge.)Bob"Life is short and (insert adjective)" 11:32, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) To anyone saying "merge into National Bolshevism"; the page doesn't accomodate for that at the moment. -- Techpriest (talk) 20:47, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
 * What about Diet's proposal? Andrew5 (talk) 18:26, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Merging into National Bolshevism doesn't make any sense. 05:38, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) The strike happened within the context of local opposition to a local government. The author obviously wants us to infer the communists and fascists had some mutual goals in mind, or a shared ideology, but in fact there was much more co-operation between the communists and the SPD (such as when the communist Red Front assigned a protection detail to SPD Reichstag deputy Otto Buchwitz, after he was threatened by Nazis chanting "death to Buchwitz" following a brawl); and between the fascists and the other nationalists (such as the Harzburg Front).Tristan (talk) 06:23, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

 * 1) missional and CRUCIAL topic needs own article -- poster of afd ought to improve stub if desired as oppose to call for delete Low computer battery (talk) 21:40, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Can you explain how it's crucial? Bongolian (talk) 23:37, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
 * rw purpose pt. 3 exploring and understanding authoritarianism ought include full comprehending of nazi rise to power -- 1932 strike facilitated national socialist takeover by preventing spd coalition control of weimar government and causing chain of events letting hitler ascend Low computer battery (talk) 00:14, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Is this based on any particular historian's view or is it your own view? Tristan (talk) 06:29, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

 * 6) I'd say it fits better in the Nazism article, under "Origins", since this incident is part of how the Nazis rose to power. First, though, it ought to be tweaked to focus on why exactly the two groups decided to collaborate. The article mentions how the two groups would get into fights on the streets—so why were they suddenly striking together? That aspect seems pretty unclear.

 * I love that idea. Andrew5 (talk) 18:26, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

Goat

 * merge would create confusion -- nazi-communist 1932 strike alliance NOT direct expression of syncretic nazbol ideology Low computer battery (talk) 00:09, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * It and Landtag referendum, 1931 probably deserve merged into some kind of larger article about Weimar Germany or something. But not sure what is best target. Both incidents are historically only important when viewed in context of Nazism and German communism: if it was just a random far-right party teaming up with a random far-left party in another country, it would never have an article. --Annanoon (talk) 16:12, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia has an article on . Maybe we can add the Berlin strike into a new Communazi article amongst other communazi stuff. Or maybe add it to the horseshoe theory article. LongStylus (talk) 00:52, 9 August 2022 (UTC)
