Hello, I have (rudimentarily) translated a section of the German Wikipedia.
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antifaschismus
Perhaps this is of use. I'm a German native speaker, and my English is good enough that you can be sure that whilst the style is clearly in need of improvement, the contents as such has been faithfully retained. Sorry for the missing caps.
German:
1930 wuchs die NSDAP sprunghaft zur zweitstärksten Partei nach der SPD. Erst daraufhin definierte die KPD die NSDAP erstmals als Hauptgegner. Einige KPD-Vertreter räumten ein, die Gefahr des Nationalsozialismus unterschätzt zu haben. Im Juli 1930 legte sich die KPD auf Betreiben Stalins auf einen „nationalen“ Kurs anstelle von Klassenkampfparolen fest, um NSDAP-Wähler zu gewinnen.[42] Sie sah schon die Notverordnungen Heinrich Brünings (Deutsche Zentrumspartei) als „Faschismus an der Macht“ und rief zum Kampf gegen die SPD auf, weil diese Brüning stützte. 1931 trat KPD-Führer Heinz Neumann bei NSDAP-Treffen unter anderem mit Joseph Goebbels auf und rief, die Kommunisten wollten keinen „Bruderkampf“ mit den Nationalsozialisten. Zudem unterstützte die KPD einen von NSDAP, DNVP und Stahlhelm eingeleiteten Volksentscheid gegen die SPD-Landesregierung in Preußen. Nur sehr wenige NSDAP-Vertreter traten zur KPD über. Diese gewann zwar bis 1932 etwa 150.000 neue Mitglieder, konnte sie aber kaum integrieren und verlor zugleich ihre Verankerung in den Gewerkschaften.[43] Mit Bezug auf diesen KPD-Kurs setzten führende SPD-Vertreter wie Rudolf Breitscheid, Karl Kautsky, Kurt Schumacher und Otto Wels „Bolschewismus“ (Sowjetkommunismus) und Faschismus öffentlich gleich.[44]
English:
In 1930, the nsdap abruptly rose to be the second-strongest party, second to the SPD. It was only after this happened that the KPD did define the NSDAP as its major opponent. Some KDP representatives admitted to having underestimated the danger of national socialism. In july 1930, as a result of interference from Stalin, the kpd changed their political focus from class warfare paroles to a nationalistic strategy in order to win nsdap voters. the kpd saw in the notverordnungen (emergency directives) of heinrich brüning (zentrum party) as "fascism in power" and called for a fight against the SPD who was backing brüning. 1931 kpd leader heinz neumann visited nsdpa gatherings in which among others joseph goebbels participated, and in his speeches proclaimed that the communists did not want a "war of brothers" against the national socialists. furthermore the kpd supported a referendum against the spd state government of prussia that was initiated by the nsdap, dnvp and stahlhelm (steel helmet party). only few nsdap representatives left the their party for the kpd. whilst the kpd did win about 150,000 of new members until 1932, it was hardly capable of integrating those new members and at the same time lost ist anchoring in the labor unions. with reference to this course of the kpd, leading spd representatives such as breidscheid, kautsky, schumacher and wels publicly equated bolschevism (soviet communism) and fascism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.187.105.82 (talk) 22:30, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
"three arrows"
the "three arrows" logo used for this is not appropriate as the logo represents not just anti-fascism, but anti-monarchism and anti-communism as well. many of the largest anti-fascist organizations are communist. this needs to be corrected. the logo for "Antifaschistische Aktion" (Antifascist Action) - the red and black flag in a circle - is a far more appropriate logo. 69.113.236.26 (talk) 02:40, 17 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
