    The Nazi's self identified as socialists as a political strategy without actually adopting any socialist policies. Hitler and Goebels were right wing racist extremists who appropriated the language of socialism for their own purposes. i.e. Gaining the support of the unions and communists on the political left for the Nazi party. Once in power they were purged c.f. Otto and Gregor Strasser

    Unions were supressed, communism outlawed and all worker representation was banned. Selected business associated were invited to form a capitalist cabal in support of the party and given exclusive contracts and vast sums of money, much of which made it's way back into the pockets of prvate individuals within the party.

    Man says Nazis were socialist, gets schooled by history writer | indy100

    Ah so once again we quote journalistic sources as facts. When will you people learn?

    From the encyclopaedia Britannica

    Nazi Party | Definition, Meaning, History, & Facts | Britannica.com

    Just because he rule by totalitarian methods doesn't make him right wing. Yes it make him a dictator, but not all dictators are right wing extremists, e.g. Stalin who did much the same thing as Hitler, i.e. brutal suppression of anyone who opposed him.

    PS I don't have to resort to childish abuse to support my arguments.

      BTW Hilter was actually a socialist. The Nazi party was the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. I think you are confusing your left and right wing political parties.
      I bet you get confused by Buffalo Wings too...
      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

        From your source :

        The party’s socialist orientation was basically a demagogic gambit designed to attract support from the working class. By 1921 Hitler had ousted the party’s other leaders and taken over.
        Also :

        Hitler crushed the Nazi Party’s left, or socialist-oriented, wing in 1934, executing Ernst Röhm and other rebellious SA leaders on what would become known as the “Night of the Long Knives.”
        The articles I referenced were published in papers but were written by actual historians who have done the research and written extensively about it.

            It's all gone quiet over there.

            Glumly staring defeat in the face, the Brexiteers have resorted to arguing semantics from a century ago. It's sad to see fellow human beings reduced to this.

            But they did ask for it.
