Aww, an actual nazi.

Writing in 1958 Niekisch condemned Hitler as a power-obsessed demagogue who was an enemy of the elite of the spirit that Niekisch advocated. He was particularly ill-disposed towards Joseph Goebbels and, at a meeting between the two facilitated by their mutual friend Arnolt Bronnen, Niekisch and Goebbels had almost come to blows... In the immediate aftermath of the Reichstag fire his house was searched for evidence of any involvement but it was not pursued. He also discussed his opposition to the new regime with Ulrich von Hassell, although Neikisch did not join the Resistance... He was arrested in 1937 by the Gestapo and was sentenced to life imprisonment two years later at the Volksgerichtshof for 'literary high treason'...He was released in 1945, by which time he was blind. Embittered against nationalism by his war-time experiences he turned to orthodox Marxism and lectured in sociology in Humboldt University in East Germany until 1953 when, disillusioned by the brutal suppression of the workers' uprising, he moved to West Berlin, where he later died.
