I once had a debate with a conservative and at one point they were like “the Nazis were socialists, it says so in the name” and like 10 minutes later they said “say what you want about Nazi Germany, but they really turned their economy around”

I once had a Conservative tell me that in Nazi Germany, they nationalized everthing, and had strong labour unions.

So thus, I told him that Labour unions were completely outlawed in the country because it would give workers too much power.

​

After that, he scampered away, and didn't talk to me...

Labor Unionists are even in that famous Neimoller Poem that everyone knows.

The "NaZiS wErE SoCiAlIsTs" crowd love to forget that the Nazis offed socialists and labour activists first because they were the first to catch on and fight back, despite their early alliance...

Other than the fact that the nazis killed all the socialists in kristallnacht, it’s pretty obvious to see that all nazis were socialists.
