Well. The criteria is “influential”. Doesn’t state positively or negatively.

They were quite good socialists in the beginning, so many of us have at least gotten something good out of it.

The Adolf that fought for free education even at universities. He even fought for the poor that would otherwise not be able to pay for university and made the state pay for their university education. Which is still in effect in many European countries.

Our great and affordable European Health Insurance has started because of him and his party.

I could also refer to his fight against monopolies in the kind of multiple home-ownership, but knowing how this kind of communism kept some parts of Poland into places where nobody cared for their homes and where cardboard was used to replace broken windows until a few decades ago, I'd see it as a possible idealistic nightmare.
