That's all nice and everything, Jim, but it does nothing to explain why Hitler's chosen political party is socialist
a tad strange?? 🤔
"Adolf Hitler's rise to power began in the newly established Weimar Republic in September 1919 when Hitler joined a political party known as the Deutsche Arbeiterpartei – DAP (German Workers' Party). Hitler rose to a place of prominence in the early years of the party. Being one of its best speakers, he was made the party leader after he threatened to otherwise leave.
In 1920, the DAP renamed itself to the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei – NSDAP (National Socialist German Workers' Party, commonly known as the Nazi Party). The party's new name was the result of Hitler himself as he wanted to attract German laborers. Despite the NSDAP being a right wing party it did have many anti-capitalist and anti-bourgeoise elements. Hitler initiated a purge of these elements and reaffirmed the Nazi Party's pro-business stance."

Right wing German parties had had a history of co-opting the "socialist" label; Bismarck implemented some modest reforms in the 1880s and called it "state socialism":
"In spite of its name, State Socialism was a conservative ideology which supported the aristocracy, the church and the monarchy while maintaining harmony with capitalists and workers, in opposition to both liberalism and socialism. Hence, its supporters called themselves the Conservative Party while its opponents called themselves the National Liberal Party and the Socialist Workers' Party. "

Maybe this foolish nonsense will stop now.
Those who do not learn from the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.
@earl-of-trumps saidNSM.
Here is some more news about our modern socialists here in the good old *progressive* US of A
NSM has a 25-point manifesto on its website and advocates an American “White” ethnostate in which only those with European ancestry can be citizens.
Do you mean these guys?

They aren't socialists either, fool.

@earl-of-trumps saidIt ain’t cutting it for you?
People cling to the idea that the Nazi Party was right wing, yet somehow had the word "socialist" in their name.
This is like expecting me to believe that the Proud Boys would be just as happy being known as
the Proud Socialist Boys. 🙄
Sorry, It ain't cutting it.
It’s bloody history, man.
Jesus. It doesn’t matter what you think cuts it or not, it’s just the way it is.
God damn. The word “chair” might not cut it for you either, but it is a bloody word with a bloody meaning, no matter what the hell you think of the bloody matter.
Absolute fukking retard.

How does moron grab 'ya?
@earl-of-trumps saidperhaps this will help you understand:
People in here bristle at the notion that Adolph Hitler was a socialist despite having led
the National Socialist German Workers' Party, aka, the Nazi Party, since 1921.
Ok, fine. Let's see if modern Neo-Nazi socialists do much different.

Socialism is just way cool, eh dems?? Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezus
you call yourself smart when you're in fact dumb because "smart" is the positive adjective.
The main idea to understand is that no matter how often you call yourself smart, you're still dumb.
Just like Hitler was never a socialist no matter how often he called himself and his party as such.
Understand now?
