National socialism comes very close to communism, you can see this extremely well with Corbyn. the only difference is that nazi's don't pretend the workers are in charge, whereas the commies do. They both support the own people first ideology.

Capitalism works by paying poor people to make shineys for the less poor to buy.
It will fail when people either realise there is more to life than shineys, or the are no more poor people to exploit, because thry’ve got their shineys now...Comment

Originally posted by northernladyuk View PostThen why did the Nazis privatise so many state owned industries? They moved more of the means of production into private ownership.
e.g. it was not private endeavours but state sponsored endeavours?
As ultimately it all was still completely answerable to Hitler?Comment

But the real point of this line of argument is to show that you cannot claim that Mao and Stalin are examples of 'real socialism' (when clearly the means of production were owned by a dictatorial state, and not by the workers), while claiming that Nazism was not 'real capitalism' (even though capitalism moved away from state ownership within a previously reasonably democratic state towards more private ownership).Comment

Originally posted by northernladyuk View PostSo I think what is going on here is a view that only free market capitalism is 'real capitalism', and that command control capitalism is not 'real capitalism'. Capitalism is broad and can encompass either forms (but is usually a hybrid at some point of a continuum between them). The reality is that the Nazis removed sectors of production from state hands to private hands. This is a type of capitalism.

And so it was not a Socialist Dictatorship - more just a dictatorship (in much the same way as the Nazi's were?)Comment

Originally posted by WTFH View PostThe Nazis weren't socialist. They were a national party - like the National Front or the British National Party whose brand of "socialism" extended to "if you are the right genetic make up, then you're welcome to use those with different genetic make up". Socialism does not segregate or discriminate against people based on skin colour or religion. Unless you are saying that UKIP and the Tories are loony left socialist pinko commies.Comment
